Mountain - The Best Of Mountain.

RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON COLUMBIA 1973.

Columbia PC 32079 made in USA in gatefold cover. Vinyl EX. Cover EX.

 Mountain's meteoric ride through the early '70s was as memorable as it was brief -- so much so that this excellent greatest-hits set was released less than four years after the band had inaugurated their career at Woodstock. In retrospect, its easy to understand why the strange chemistry (pun intended) struck between boogie-loving, Clapton-worshiping guitar hero Leslie West and eclectic bassist and Cream producer Felix Pappalardi was fated to be a short one. But during their brief run, Mountain's adventurous proto-metal did indeed resemble a somewhat twisted but effective American version of the legendary power trio that inspired them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_%28band%29
