    If you looked up 70s power rock & roll in that fictional music encyclopedia you'd find a picture of this big, ugly dude named Leslie West makin' in his guitar scream while belting out these lyrics. He was a force of nature with a guitar in hand and microphone in front of him.

    • @vicprovost2561
      @vicprovost2561 Год назад +4

      He was an absolute force of nature, I was point blank to that dude several times, the riffs he used to come up with were mind boggling, he would just use the space between songs at times to just send notes into the cosmos, explore the grove for a minute or 2 and then break into Blood of the Sun! The best I ever heard him play was at an old high school football stadium in Holyoke MA in 1973, he had Leslie West's Wild West Show in tow, Mick Jones of Foreigner fame was on 2nd lead and did they ever get into it, Leslie ripped into Love is Worth the Blues, his solo was bouncing off the apartment blocks nearby, he had it cranked!
      He was an utter powerhouse.

  • @vicprovost2561
    @vicprovost2561 Год назад +8

    Awesome, Leslie West and Mountain were dope, for another great banger of theirs, try Nantucket Sleighride, it is classic in studio but live, it takes on a life of its own and can run 10 - 30+ minutes. Great stuff, saw the Leslie, with and without Mouth gain 19 times, he was always around, often on multi-band bills, you did not want to be the headliner if Leslie was playing before you ( unless you are Black Sabbath and Tony Iommi, it never mattered who opened for them, they always deserved to be the headliner, no matter if Leslie, Van Halen, BOC, orJudas Priest, amongst many others I saw, did not matter at all). Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎶

    I’ll try and shorten this but a buddy of mine who’s a big time drummer was managed by Mountains manager years later. He told me his friend was a young British college guy at the time working for a music company & was ask to pick up somebody named Leslie West he was a little surprised to meet a large man and not a cut little lady to and take the band to Woodstock NY for some concert they were playing in Love the fact he had no idea who the band was and what was going on at Woodstock

    This is the second song W.A.S.P. covered back in the day.
    Their covers are remarkably good, in that they stay very true to the original, sounding very much like the original but still making the song their own.
    The end doesn't just stop cold like the original does ; it breaks out into solos and a piked-up pace, launched by Blackie's yell, "Wooooahhhhhh, look out! Helter Skelter!"
    I reckon it's been a beat or two since you delved into W.A.S.P., so if you're wanting something for your Metal Meltdown or just a stand-alone reaction, here are all of W.A.S.P.'s covers to date :
    01. PAINT IT BLACK (The Rolling Stones) [1984]
    02. MISSISSIPPI QUEEN (Mountain) [1985]
    03. I DON'T NEED NO DOCTOR (Humble Pie) [1986]
    04. EASY LIVING (Uriah Heep) [1986]
    05. LOCOMOTIVE BREATH (Jethro Tull) [1989]
    06. THE REAL ME (The Who) [1989]
    07. WHEN THE LEVEE BREAKS (Led Zeppelin) [1992]
    08. SOMEBODY TO LOVE (Jefferson Airplane) [1995]
    09. TIE YOUR MOTHER DOWN (Queen) [1995]
    10. WHOLE LOTTA ROSIE (AC/DC) [1995]
    11. IT'S A LONG WAY TO THE TOP (AC/DC) [1995]
    12. SATURDAY NIGHT IS ALRIGHT (Elton John) [1999]
    13. BURN (Deep Purple) [2007]
    14. PROMISED LAND (Chuck Berry) [2007]

    If you guys don't want to be like everyone else in the public at large...and hop on a band or music movement like the public at large always does:after it's already over,and it's too late.....You would be doing yourself a great service by checking out bands like Amyl and the sniffers and/or Starcrawler. Both are on the cusp of breaking out,and blowing up.....and becoming huge stars. You can wait until that happens,but you'll completely miss out on their arc. Like everyone did with Nirvana. By the time people got on board with Nirvana,their best work was behind them, and people really only got one good album before Kurt passed away. Their Bleach album was out 5 years before Nevermind,and to this day the most die hard Nirvana fans aren't even aware of the album at all....And it happens to be their best work. People latched on to Nevermind,but it wasn't even near as raw and organic as the Bleach record. Same thing with the Sex Pistols...by the time casual fans caught up with them, they were already broken up....and everyone missed the boat. I'm simply trying to help everyone learn from those collosal blunders and to avoid repeating ginourmous mistakes. I promise you will love these bands. There's nothing not to love about bands who actually "get it"... Where it isn't forced or derivative, but rather the genuine article. Arrow D'Wilde and Amy Taylor happened to be born rock stars. The world just doesn't know it yet. Now, nobody reading this can say that they haven't been told

      @@TheAdventuresofTNT But you are so great and well established 😁 These aren't garage bands. They have followings and as I said,are on the cusp of becoming huge acts. Your journey has provided you with enough tools in your toolbox,that by now,it doesn't take you long to know the real deal when you see it. And both are the genuine article. If you have to guess,or try to talk yourself into it...by now you know. One look and you know. Take a look at these bands... even if you don't use it on your channel and just take a personal look if you have a minute.
