Yeah!
That was the heaviest thing I ever heard, at the time.
In every way.
Leslie West had a great voice, and wicked vibrato.
RIP, Felix, Leslie and Steve, thanks gentlemen.

That’s freakin’ awesome! Wow, live in a TV studio. The keyboard player may have been a little overdressed
, but played very well. Leslie West of course played with a lot of feel and energy, and like @brookdalebill says his wicked vibrato. Always loved that song.

A band that should have been much, much bigger.
Me too!
A lady bandleader I occasionally play with does it, so I learned it last year.
It’s fun to play!

Great clip!
Photos of LW in the early 70s was the first time I'd ever seen a LP Jr., I think. There weren't a lot of them around in the UK at the time, if I remember rightly.

Is that '55-'57 ( ?) Chevy w/grey primer footage from the James Taylor movie?
( saw parts of it a few years back while Channel surfing- never knew about it)

Love the speaker stacks. Wonder if they were plugged in?

In college, I bought this record and my roommate quipped: “that must be the shortest album ever”

The tones he was able to get out of the LP Jr.... just wow. Always amazed me. They were really great.
In 1970? Probly yes. Leslie West played with a Sunn Coliseum PA and two to four Sunn 4x12" cabs back then.

Saw them with Jethro Tull in Tampa July 24, 1970. Truly unforgettable!
More cowbell!I saw a concert with Mountain,and they did 3 encores.Then Leslie came out alone and did a whole song using just harmonics.It was amazing.I've tried it.I'm nothing like Leslie.

Same equipment that was used at Woodstock as backline.
The JBL D120s from another pair of those cabs eventually ended up in Electric Lady Studio, transplanted into one of Jimi's Marshall 4x12.
