"The Version of Sliegh ride here is beutiful , the guitar solo sings and has a nice building structure. I don't mean it's a skyscraper , i mean to say it builds and has different chord progressions that move along ,and highten in intesity , They are following what seems to be a structured improvisation , and the group works really well off of one an other tastefully .
Blood of the sun is really good , some ssay Mountains better shows were never recorded and the lesser shows appear on CD , aside from a couple of missed lyrics and a slightly out of tune and guitar here and there .The chemistry is amazing .
Leslie has rerecord some of this stuff with a more modern GTR sound and his own vocal , but the group dynamic , is not the same .
This is Mountain as the Pioneers of Blues rock , in a dark era where there were only gaints and empty space . This is as raw as it gets."
