Whats playing on your system today?

ghosthouse -

I don't own any UK, but I have heard it on LP when I was younger. 

Regarding Mountain, great call. It's been a while since I've heard that.
"Mississippi Queen" is on FM so much that the rest of the albumn often gets overlooked.

Nutty,

"Green Manalishi" is indeed a Peter Green composition.  One of my favorites, at that.  Like "Black Magic Woman" (popularized by Carlos Santana) it's another Green song that's often misattributed to a band that covered it.  Sadly, Green had a relatively short career peak before LSD and/or mental health problems felled him.  The stuff he did with Mayall and on the first four Fleetwood Mac albums is IMO just great, though.

nutty, the Jack Bruce/Roy Gallagher video was awesome!

ghosthouse, I just bought Leslie West "Soundcheck", looking forward to listening soon.

Slaw - pleased you are checking out Leslie West.  I am not familiar with that one...my bet is the music will be good but I'm anxious the sound quality will be bad and turn you off.  I'm going to see if I can find it on Spotify (or YouTube).  Get a feel for what that ones about.  By the way - I definitely pay attention to your music posts.  Appreciate them.

Found it, Slaw. A 2015 release...sonics seem very good. Haven’t heard enough of it to know what I think of the music yet (does he still have the fire?). Do like his cover of You Are My Sunshine (several covers on this one).  From Track 6 (A Stern Warning) it seems like he still has decent chops.  His voice seems to have held up pretty well  which kind of surprised me.  Don't know how much auto-tune they had to use.  

As far as BAD sound quality, it’s some of the post-Mountain (archival?) releases of so-called Mountain recordings...from concerts etc. that are just plain terrible sound-wise. There oughta be a law (or a good lawsuit)! to prevent that kind of stuff.
