All great stuff. I have all three albums that you mention and love them all. Pure power. Corky Laing's drumming is brilliant.
I got into them following Jack Bruce then expanded into Mountain and some of Leslie Wests solo stuff later, Wonderful musicians all of them

Totally agree. As previously mentioned I have around 20-25 Mountain/Leslie West solo/West, Bruce & Laing cd/albums and it's all great rock music to listen to!.

I first picked up on Mountain and Leslie West around 1985 when I bought a second-hand vinyl copy of Mountain Climbing released in 1970 which I thought was 'really good' after which I just started searching out and buying up the other albums such as Nantucket Sleighride released in 1971, Flowers of Evil released in 1971, Mountain: The Road Goes Ever on a live album released in 1972, Mountain Avalanche released in 1974 & Twin Peaks released in 1974 the double-live gatefold album recorded in Japan in August 1973 and those albums were followed by the West, Bruce & Laing albums and finally some Leslie West solo albums from the 1990s also I have a number of Mountain 'bootleg' cds in my collection as well. I originally bought all the aforementioned albums on vinyl 'imports' from the Virg*n record store in central London around 1985-86 which coming from the USA at that time came in 'thicker' card record sleeves unlike our UK albums in general that came in thinner and cheaper record sleeves. I also have a soft-back book that is called "Tales from the road (when rock & roll was rock & roll)" that features rock & roll tales from both Leslie and Corky before, during and after their time in Mountain which also includes when they were both in West, Bruce & Laing with Jack Bruce which I bought back in the early 2000s I believe without looking for the book now and finding out when it was first published?..

I woke up with Triumph playing in my head and there is only one remedy for such things.
