[Live] - Bonus Track Mountain is one of those bands that was formed in the wake of the breakup of Cream. Felix Pappalardi (producer for Cream) and Leslie West (of Vagrants) got together in 1969 and formed Mountain. The band name came from a solo album of West’s, which was also produced by Felix………titled “Mountain”, which was a direct reference to Leslie West’s bodily stature. Mountain got their first major exposure at Woodstock, which was their 4th live appearance. Shortly after Woodstock, Corky Laing (a long time friend of West) replaced the original drummer, N. D. Smart. Mountain enjoyed a great streak in their musical fame, but this streak didn’t last long. Mountain broke up in 1972, after poor album sales and critical reviews of the album “Mountain Live: The Road Goes Ever On”. The band had run out of steam. Mountain did reform in 1974, and still performs today, but has never achieved the greatness that was achieved in their first 2 album releases. Nantucket Sleighride is the 2nd album release by Mountain, and rides on the heels of the major hit “Mississippi Queen” from the album “Climbing!”. Nantucket Sleighride failed to produce any hits but still remains a milestone for music history with the epic title song “Nantucket Sleighride (To Owen Coffin)”. This song is a dedication to a man, Owen Coffin, who sacrificed his life aboard a ship lost at sea after taking a sleighride. Owen was eaten by his crew mates, which ultimately saved their lives. This song is one of the best written songs to come from Mountain and the live version is simply stunning! I consider Nantucket Sleighride to be the best album from the band even though there were no charting hits. The production is top notch, with the musicianship being more polished than “Climbing!”.
