This album offers a thoughtful blend of acoustic intimacy and focused listening, with tracks like \"Long Red\" and \"Because You Are My Friend\" highlighting West’s ability to balance fiery riffs with melodic nuance. The collection reveals a quieter, more reflective side that contrasts with his later, more thunderous work with Mountain and West, Bruce and Laing. It’s a record that invites you to settle in and appreciate the craft behind the power. This pressing from 1969 comes on vinyl in near-mint condition, presenting an exceptionally clean surface that’s visually close to new. It’s the kind of copy that lets you enjoy the music without worrying about distracting pops or clicks. Given the era and the album’s focused acoustic ensemble setting, this is a fine example for collectors who appreciate Leslie West’s early explorations. If you’re lining up your records by intensity, consider this a quiet moment before the storm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003csection data-track-listing=\"true\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTrack listing \u0026amp; samples\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLeslie West - Mountain\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide A\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlood Of The Sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong Red\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBetter Watch Out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlind Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaby, I'm Down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide B\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDreams Of Milk \u0026amp; Honey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStoryteller Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis Wheel's On Fire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLook To The Wind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSouthbound Train\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBecause You Are My Friend\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embeds\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embed\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Qlhzft1R-wo\" allowfullscreen loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:152px;border:0;border-radius:12px;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sample-embed\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/5ItlhE82QeQDM0j3aUKDPK\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:152px;border:0;border-radius:12px;\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Den Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"NM \/ VG \/ 1969","offer_id":54336052953404,"sku":"DEN00000362","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0694\/9932\/2684\/files\/MS02NzY2LmpwZWc.jpg?v=1788298546","url":"https:\/\/shoptheden.com\/products\/leslie-west-mountain-lp-090126","provider":"The Den New Hope PA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
