I know Mountain reasonably well and I`m equally bemused that somebody would think they had some kind of thrash metal sound! We`re talking about a group, that is largely your typical hard blues rock outfit here and with a very late 60`s early 70's sound, if anything their sound had a sludgy blues feel to it.
Without doubt, two of their albums really stand out "Mountain Climbing" and "Nantucket Sleighride" which were released in 1970 and 1971 and in my opinion essential to any hard rock collection. Frontman Leslie West was a pretty amazing guitarist as well and had a mountainous frame (hence the group name) |
