I was 10 yrs old when this song was released. My parents were in a bowling league and used to drag me along on Monday nights. To placate me, they would give me 2 quarters for the jukebox. Back in the day that meant 6 songs! I would play Mississippi Queen 4 times and Hand Me Down World by the Guess Who twice!!! By week 3 of the league the jukebox suddenly had an "out of order" sign taped to it; but strangely only on Monday nights! LOL!!
Oh my gosh! My mom & dad both were on bowling teams when I was growing up, and would give money for the jukebox, and this one was playing a lot! I love music that I can feel! This is Super Awsome! Play it again!
Mountain is a FANTASTIC early rock/blues band. Leslie West was an AMAZING guitarist. Please, PLEASE do "Nantucket Sleighride" it's my favorite Mountain song!
Somehow stumbled across this page. This coming from an old guy who was there when all this stuff first hit the airwaves. No idea who this young man is but it sure is nice to see someone his age enjoying the hell out of this music. Back in the day when human beings played actual instruments, singers actually could sing. No auto-tune, no computers, very, very little overdubs. Mississippi Queen" is 50 yrs. ago!!!! And his reaction says it all. LONG LIVE ROCK!!!
Grew up on LI loved the local bands of the seventies and eighties.This song was played at every local bar/club.My favorite local was/is the Good Rats!Long live Pepe’.Good Times!(was the name of a LI club also)
@@matttaylor4545 Not only at that time, but taking into consideration that he didn't have a wall of special effects, his tone would stand up to any of the guys playing that style of music now like Joe Bonamassa for example. Bonamassa would give his right thumb to have that tone LOL! 👍😆🍺

@@shelbinamo And how do reactionaries learn about talents?.....there are also many requests for performers based on Diana's reactions. So what?....the owner of the channel will figure out what he likes and what he doesn't like.=))))) Is it like your first time on RUclips????=)))
@Stephen B , "Derniere Danse", "It's Man's Man's Man's World", "Rechenka" (Rechenka, River), "Tomorrow Is A Live" (Diana is 14 years old); "Wicked Game", "Human", "Blizzard" (Diana is 15 years old here). All songs were performed on the project "You are Super!" (Russia) and got millions of views on RUclips!
I got a big kick watching you listening to the intro. My father had a massive stereo system that could level a small village. 250 watts per channel we would listen to listen this song and so would our neighbors!
Others by them: Never in my Life, Nantucket SleighRide, Theme for an Imaginary Western, For Yasger’s Farm, Silver Paper, Roll over Beethoven, the Animal Trainer and the Toad.
Mountain was one of the hottest band in the 70's....Excellent band!!! Mountain is an American hard rock band that formed on Long Island, New York in 1969. Originally comprising vocalist and guitarist Leslie West, bassist and vocalist Felix Pappalardi, keyboardist Steve Knight and drummer N. D. Smart, the band broke up in 1972 and has reunited frequently since 1973. Best known for their cowbell-tinged song "Mississippi Queen", as well as the heavily sampled song "Long Red" and their performance at the Woodstock Festivalin 1969.
That was Leslie West who just passed away today. Fantastic guitarist. Check out a few more by Mountain. Never in my Life and Theme for an Imaginary Western
Back in the early 80s my home town in Saskatchewan got a rock F.M. radio station (Z-99). This was the first song they played. I remember the anticipation as my brother and I sat patiently listening to the countdown to midnight, then at the stroke of 12...that cowbell!
So many great tributes to Mr West, here and on social media. This song is in a class by itself. JV's super reaction was well deserved. Peace to him and his family.
17 yrs Old. Me and a buddy cut High School. Hitch hiked across the river in Harrisburg, PA. Got to the FARM SHOW Arena. Waiting for the road crew to show up. MOUNTAIN road crew lets us haul the gear in. Then...just let em wire it all up. Cool for us to hit the beer coolers. Sat on the stage when the band came for sound check. HEARD THIS LIVE ...TWICE...sitting on drum case as the SHOW blasted my high school friends minds...who could see me on STAGE :....glorious dayz...
I call this one of those one hit wonders, never heard too much from Mountain after this song. Could have been just me, but loved this choice! Great day of reactions, you really brought it today! Keep it coming! Would love to hear some Cream "Crossroads" if you haven't heard it yet . Peace out!
Mountain had some great material, never in my life, long red, Nantucket Sleigh ride, Theme for an imaginary western, Don’t look around, and quite a few more.
Leslie West is the guitarist and also the singer, Felix Pappalardi is the bass player.. Saw them in a town in Staten Island in a small theatre, on a summer afternoon. My wife knew the guy who was working the theatre, so we saw them for free, back in 1969. Far out ! Hearng this live is amazing.
Man, I was in HS when my older buddy Leslie West (guitar/singer) had this hit - this is when we just started listening to FM radio for cool music! He was from Long Island NY ...
I was lucky enough to see Mountain back in the day. Great trio! I remember that during the drum solo, the drummer lit his sticks at one point and played with flaming sticks. I think that was Corky Lang. On guitar is the great Leslie West, and Felix Pappalardi (sp?) on bass.
Lol, I love when you have to run them back within 5 seconds. Makes me happy when you're shocked and surprised. ....waiting on my favorite part of Monday..Motown baby, motown
...guitarist and vocalist Leslie West...passed away yesterday...December 22 2020... ...the sound of 1970... ...doesn't get any better... ...never will...
Lead Guitar was the great Leslie West. The bassist , Felix Pappalardi also worked with Cream, co writing Strange Brew with Eric Clapton and contributing musically, arranging and involved in the production of Disraeli Gears, he was often called the fourth member of Cream. My favourite Mountain song is Nantucket Sleighride , an epic.
Love mountain saw then in angleton texas few miles from wer i live more like 5 min from wer i live . another favorite songs of mine. Love it. Good concert ... Fun concert these wer the times u could enjoy a concert no police!😀we a looked after one another.
Leslie West is still putting out some great music. He is very underrated as a guitarist and Mountain should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Cream, ZZ Top, and Mountain are the three greatest power trio bands.
Not hard to believe cause this is what our music was in 1970. Changing over to what we called Hard Rock & went to all the concerts & festivals to hear. Loved it!
This track has been on my favourite playlist for so long, and one day I met my Mississippi Queen, fell in love, and kept it real together ever since. And I live in England haha!
My last band covered this. But the only way we could reproduce Leslie West's thunderous guitar was for our bass player to pick up a guitar, making three on stage, and I played bass from my mixer. It was a wall of sound.
Hard Rock is a different level of Rock and Roll. This is hard rock. I think this was their biggest hit. i saw them in concert and wanted this song and they had others that I never heard before. Love this one. Thanks for your reaction!
"When I think of Rock n Roll, this is what I'm thinking about." That's EXACTLY what I thought when I first heard it. It was like I'd always been waiting to hear it. And I'd never heard of them! (That's rock for you. Lol.) Felt same way about "Rumble" by Link Wray - that was a big one for me. Same kind of thing you've been sort of looking for, maybe without knowing it. Except that's not...it's a different rock, but a huge part of it. He was a father of rock - but hardly known save for more recently. Another great hard rock tune, and this is Hard Rock, is "Heavy Metal" by Sammy Hagar. And "Bad Motor Scooter" and "I Got the Fire" by Montrose. And Leslie West, the guitar player, was the singer on this, too. That pic of them....those guys.....when rock was NOT pretty. :)
It was great to hear Mississippi Queen ! I agree, it ended too soon. How about listening to Riders on the Storm by the Doors. Thanks for having such an open mind regarding our suggestions. Love your channel!
Leslie West...(RIP) HUGE mountain of a man, guitar and the vocals on this track. The other singer and bass player, Felix Pappalardi made his name as a producer before playing in Mountain. He produced The Cream albums... (Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker & Jack Bruce CREAM...)
OH yeah BRO👊 THANKS JAY🕶️ "Mississippi QUEEN, she TAUGHT ME EVERTHING"🔥and YA KNOW I TAUGHT her a few "TRICKS" 💯 Like YOU Said JAY " It comes in "NASTY" 🔥🔥🔥🔥
🎵🎶💖💖🎶🎵 Throw back to my era!!! "While the rest of them dudes were gettin' their kicks" 70s was raw talent and experimenting with instruments, lyrics, and blues rock southern rock and gave you a taste of different regions across America!!
I have never heard of this band before, its not my kind of music though I know my older brother would love it. I don't know if they were big here in the UK but they were brilliant instrumentalists especially the guitarist that was brilliant playing. I'm glad you liked it so much Jayvee, you are a real music lover. Take care and stay safe please my friends, God bless you all, love hugs and peace to everyone Mary-Ellen UK
I saw them in London. The bass was so loud you could feel your stomach move when certain notes were played. No wonder Felix had hearing problems later in life
The main riff was also played by the bass player, which gives that extra kick . He used fuzz . Leslie West is the singer and guitarist. They were named after him because he was so big.. Have you listened to Born to Be Wild by Steppenwolf ?
Oh yeah it's Friday morning, crank it brutha. Tonight's a Friday night n this is THE FIRST song I'm playing when I get home m crack a beer. Merry Christmas n cheers for a choice reaction vid.👏👏👏 🇦🇺🦘👍😎🍻
Aye, there were some very good bands that didn't get much airplay because they made radio-unfriendly songs...a prime example is Ten Years After. They had one radio hit, I'd Love To Change The World, but most of their catalog never got air time because of their length.
@@r.awilliams9815 I had that album. It was an excellent album, Alvin Lee was a great guitarist. For Mountain, I think the original "Nantucket Sleighride" was over 4 min. Steppenwolf had "Monster", "For Ladies Only" and the original version of "Magic Carpet Ride". I completely agree.
The guitarist and singer are the same guy. Leslie West. One of the heaviest songs to get on Top 40 AM radio in 1970.
Ladies and gentlemen. . . Mr. Leslie West!
Absolutely Kicked Ass & Took Names

This song did the same thing to me the first time I heard it, about fifty years ago.
Also reminds me a bit of Canned Heat......(Leslie West on guitar for Mountain). Canned Heat is like a jug band. Really good.
Yes.....great guitar work from Alan Wilson in Canned Heat. Would love to hear "Let's Work Together".
Ironically Mountain followed Caned Heat on Saturday night at Woodstock. They both had the gathering Rocking.
Great song! The guitar player is Leslie West. Awesome reaction!🎸🤘👊

Love your reaction! You were definitely in the zone whilst hearing this great song x
YOU ARE GONNA LOVE THIS!!!!!!
see you after
I bought this album fifty years ago. I have listened to this song a hundred times.
This reaction was gold. Glad you got the chance to hear this song. I know I got the same reaction when I first heard them.
I love this song too. It reminds me in a way of Iron Butterfly " Ina Gadda da veda" when you have time, and I mean that, its like 20 minutes long.
Such underrated band. RIP Leslie West
This is OZZY Osborne's favorite band, this is his favorite song too..
I thought that his favourite band was the beatles... great information
@@agustinlupano7785 he was telling Howard Stern that his favorite band is Mountain,. As far as the Beatles I don't know who doesn't like the Beatles?

Another great hard rock tune, and this is Hard Rock, is "Heavy Metal" by Sammy Hagar. And "Bad Motor Scooter" and "I Got the Fire" by Montrose.
And Leslie West, the guitar player, was the singer on this, too.
That pic of them....those guys.....when rock was NOT pretty. :)
