There was always so much more to Mountain's output than those 'hits', largely due to the inspired contrasting of guitarist Leslie West, with his bellowing voice, with the much more smoothly melodic vocals of bassist Felix Pappalardi. They tended to sing their own compositions in the main, and the contrast both of singing and writing styles gave them similarities to the Lennon/McCartney dynamic, and it was this juxtaposition of the two which made Mountain’s all too brief early '70s peak so exciting. Equally compelling are their live performances from this era recorded for FM broadcast. These unique recordings capture the electrifying sense of power that this band could deploy on stage. Although they never achieved their deserved wider acclaim, Mountain's criminally short career would become hugely iconic and influential for any serious rock musician. Timeline revisits this incredible, classic performance from their New Year's Eve show in 1970 with a fully restored and professionally remastered original WNEW FM broadcast. Presented with background notes and timeline photos.
