Great song by an underrated group. Their cover of “Theme for an Imaginary Western” remains one of my favorites.
Mine too. “The King of Tone” has some pretty impressive chops and collaborators and lost a leg to diabetes a few years ago, so I’m sure he’d be pleased to be remembered here.
Thank you. Was struggling to remember the name of that tune.
Nantucket Sleighride is another great one, about being pulled around by a harpooned whale.

I saw Mountain in Kansas City in the mid 70’s and still have fond memories of that day. I was also pleased to find their CD’s (including Climbing!) at Nebraska Furniture Mart in Kansas City (very reasonably priced). Leslie West remains a legend to this day. Be sure to play it loud! The Great OZ has spoken.
I also feel “theme for a Imaginary Western “ captures something that is hard to describe. Even when America was at it’s strongest (Reagan Years?)it evoked a sadness that I also sometimes feel when looking a the end of a Columbia Film and the sunset tinged clouds are behind the figure of Columbia. If that makes any sense at all....
