Corky Laings Mountain - Never in my Life (2022-11-05)

- Gegründet wurde MOUNTAIN vom Produzenten von Cream, Felix Pappalardi, 1968 in New York. Im Mittelpunkt des Heavy-Blues-Rock-Trios stand der Gitarrist Leslie West. Zeitweise wurde das Trio mit einem Keyboarder zum Quartett erweitert. So auch beim berühmten Auftritt während des Woodstock-Festivals.
Für MOUNTAIN charakteristisch sind die mächtigen Soundgebirge und der schwerfällige Dampframmenrock mit ausgeprägten weitläufigen Gitarrenimprovisationen. Hits wie „Mississippi Queen“ und „Nantucket Sleighride“ machten MOUNTAIN berühmt und sind noch heute aktuell.
Zwischenzeitlich wurde MOUNTAIN für kurze Zeit in West, Bruce & Laing umbenannt, da Pappalardi die Band verlies und durch Jack Bruce ersetzt wurde. Dieser Umstand zeigt erneut die Nähe, die zwischen den Bands MOUNTAIN und Cream bestand.
In der wechselvollen Geschichte von MOUNTAIN wurde die Besetzung mehrfach verändert, behielt jedoch die Konstante Corky Laing an den Drums.
Corky Laing reformiert nun zum x-ten Mal die Band zu dem was sie immer war. Eine der kompetentesten Heavy-Bands die sich mit allerfeinstem Hochdruck-Rock mühelos mit jungen Bands messen kann. Das Fehlen von Leslie West, der aus gesundheitlichen Gründen nicht mehr touren kann, fällt kaum ins Gewicht.
Corky Laing ist es nun gelungen mit Richie Scarlet (ex Ace Frehley´s Comet (KISS)) an der Gitarre und mit Mark Mikel am Bass eine neue Formation auf die Bühne zu bringen, die an Qualität und Power dem Original in nichts nachsteht.
Richie Scarlet: Gitarre
Mark Mikel: Bass, Gesang
Corky Laing: Schlagzeug

Saw “Mountain” with Leslie, Corky and Ritchie (on bass) a couple of times at the Ferry in Glasgow a good few years ago. Happy times.
GOD BLESS CORKY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great drumming, great guy and the bass player vocally sounds a lot like Jack Bruce, big thumbs up
Saw them in 73 ten ft. From the stage 8n front of. Leslie, mind blowing to say the least. Leslie was a big guy amazing guitarist band was incredible .
I was at this specific gig, it was absolutely amazing. They played a really long set that lasted over 2 hours, then they left the stage and came back for a encore which lasted another 30 minutes. I will cherish this experience forever ♾️
I saw Leslie, Corky, and Felix do this one at Atlanta Pop Festival 1970. They had lines of big bass amps thumping so intensely that you could see the amps rocking back and forth on their own. The band was at peak strength at the time - I'll never forget that one.
Oh man lucky you! Last time I heard Leslie west was on the Howard stern show. He was pretty sick as I recall
Good for Corky, keeping his music alive. It will never die in any event, they will be listening to Mountain centuries from now. Great music never dies, just listened to or played by new fans. 🎵
How long have you been a staggering genius?
YeSss!
Corky Laing!!!!!
Soooooo good to see Corky still keeping Mountain going .
Corky still has it & it's great to see him smile cause he knows he does. Still miss those great days with Mountain .
Just close your eyes and remember the great times of Mountain. RIP Leslie & Felix keep on rocking in heaven.
Thanks to last man standing to make us have Mountain's music still on.
And steve
not too shabby for a guy who was 74 years old at the time. I hope I do as well when I get there.
Always loved this tune especially off the twin peaks album, thanks Corky for keeping it going!!! And the rest of the band very good job on this song 🎸🎸🎸

Richie Scarlet has such a great guitar tone.. 🤘
Ahhh okay. I thought that was him. Great player. Peace.
Amazing that he can switch and plays such great bass and lead guitar. Nothing like it.
Corky laing , Bate muito!! Tem ums Baterias famosos que não chega nem aos pés dele.

Climbing is the quintessential rock roll record.
Truth be told 😮
Dude still has it
Great way to pay homage to the bog man Leslie,an admirable job
Glad to hear.Lang is keeping music alive
Corky still got it! Wonderful!
Time to clean the dust off my Mountain live album
Aye, matey!
I first saw Corky play in the 60s in Montreal in a band called Bartholomew+3. He was a great drummer and showman then as now.
Corky overdubbed Drums on Ten Years Afters Woodstock performance of “I’m Going Home” for the original Woodstock Album and Movie.
Ten thousand thumbs up!!!!!!!!!!!
One more!
When I play Mountain….so do the neighbors….I’m not the original owner of that line….but had to write it again after reading it….So Funny 😂
Great job. I loved Mountain.
Kudos to any guitarist saddled with standing in for Leslie West/ no one could possibly replicate his tone 100 % !!!###
Wow wow wow.Never would I expect this.🤘
This is awesome 👍
Thnx for video
Great Prog rock may fade, but it’ll never die
Prog rock ? This is Mountain. You're looking for the Yes page, Slugger.
Great version! Thanks for posting 😎✌️
Nice
they are dope good
Some great stuff you'll never hear on FM radio... Mountain, West, Bruce and Lange powerhouse rock at it's best! Loved: "Twin Peaks" Nantucket Sleighride, Never in my life , Mississippi Queen, 'Live 'N' Kickin' The Doctor...The Great Fatsby... PLUS: MC5(just cranked some up!!) Uriah Heep, Rainbow, Armageddon, Atomic Rooster, Captain Beyond, Steppenwolf, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Head East, Blind Faith, Savoy Brown, Wishbone Ash, Cream, Canned Heat, Johnny Winter, Iron Butterfly, Jefferson Airplane, Hendrix, UFO, Quicksilver Messenger Service...to name a few! It was great then, still great now and people will still tune it up in 50 years from now...
Nantucket Sleighride is my favorite Mountain song!
All that music was from the great days of FM freeform radio!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Sounds Great!
Surprisingly good vocals here.
Ritchie’s good
👍👍
Velhos tempos fantástico.souza.abc.sp.brasil 17.03.23 20.30hs.

Love is Worth the Blues! I can still hear that riff bouncing off the stadium walls... 🎸
Go Corky go!
Hmm go Corky !!!!!
not bad …. Wth vocals n guitar .
Mountain on my play list to this day and forever. This band missing keyboard guy
Ahh , mountain and a triple shot of 100 proof whiskey...oh yeah !! ....
Montreal Rocks!
Thanks for that great Mountain show at Catholic University Gym! 1970-1971? You know the one...Thanks!
There's a full show (audio only) from late 69 here on YT, that I played a part in capturing on open reel tape. Search Mountain at New Canaan High School.... about 45 minutes long.
👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👍👍
Neil Peart, Simon Kirke, Corky, Bonham, Moon.
Just watched this again and it dawned on me that there might be some similarities between Corky and Keith Moon. Just a couple of good drummers that happened to be a few bubbles away from plumb. I wonder if they ever shared a stage over the years?
I read that he watched Keith from behind when The Who played four nights at Madison Square Garden in 1974, and came away dumbfounded, like, "How the hell does he *do* that???"
Leslie wa killer “on guitar though. .
This guitarist has pretty good sound
The ghost of Jack Bruce on vocals?
Love that funny ending 💥
Mr. Cowbell himself, Corky Laing.
They could do West, Bruce & Lang songs with this guy.
Corky sempre tinindo 🥁💥👍🏻🤘🤘
corky cowbell…more!
We shouldn't expect the guitarist to sound just like Leslie West. Nobody will ever achieve that. But the guitarist did a good job, and good to see Corky apparently thriving and still sounding good. Bassist not bad either.
The guitar player was fine. Fan since '70 (65 now)
CL going in and out of the 'groove' got tiresome. I got over this.second spin.
NY native still rocking. Grateful to see this.
The guitarist is Richie Scarlet, a long time pro from New York that, in addition to having a history with Mountain, has also played with Ace Frehley and Alice Cooper. An excellent musician in his own right
@@thewurm9177 Thanx, man.
probably saw it before but y'all get bored. look up MQ via Dennis Miller circa '95.
i've viewed this about 50 times in the last few years and it rocks.
Ritchie is there on bass. Rock'd it.
This is great, too !
This sounds good any criticisms let's see how well you can play this?
@@alanlatimer1024 who's criticising ?
Unforgettable Mountain Leslie, Felix and Steve) and huge drummer Corky Laing
Alright corky
Corkys great but the other two need to give it more punch like Leslie and Felix did
this record was meant to be played loud ! ha
Sounds like Jack Bruce vocals
I saw west Bruce & Laing back in the late 70’s next day, King Crimson both shows $4!
Brown mescaline. The best.
Can't here the Bass that makes the song gutire good n drums
Have Corky and Henry "Fonzie" Winkler ever been seen together?
Sounds like cream abit
Needs more cow bell
Ausgerechnet auf Twin Peaks (live 1973 in Osaka) mit der mE besten Live-Version von Nantucket Sleighride war Laing nicht dabei. Für ihn spielte damals Allan Schwartzberg.
Twin Peaks war eines der schwächeren Mountain-Alben.
Ich liebe es seit damals, war 16....
Whhoo plays bass in this version?
Mr. Corcky "Fuck 🥁" Lang Long Live 🥁
+ More Cowbell 🥁😂⚡🔥👊💪😎🤘
Shoulder movement limited... I outta know I'm physically just like Corkey
Of course no one can match Leslie. I play also. But could I play lead and sing like him no!
You got to be kidding.totally embarrassing to the Mountain legacy
Agreed. Sloppy as all get out!
Kick ass!
Jaysus, old fogeys look simply awful on a stage.
Maybe….but..they sound better then MOST of the young dudes today!
GREAT
Not sure who this guy is singing but don't like it. You should near ME sing this song..............
