Leslie West @ New Morning
Paris Oct 08 2010
Hard to remember the last time that Leslie West was in Paris for a concert, I probably wasn't born.Paris Oct 08 2010
The guy is a bit of a legend, leader of the band Mountain.
When we arrived at the New Morning for the soundcheck it was hard to believe that he's on his own on the electric guitar, no bass player ans no drummer.
What the fuck ?
Neil Young is doing it for his new album, so if Neil can do it, Leslie can do it either.
Unfortunately things didn't go as smoothly as we thought.
1)his guitar playing is good but could be better
2) It's a fucking karaoke as he's playing only covers apart from a couple of songs
It could have been so much better with 2 other guys on bass and drums.
Disappointing.
