I was 14. This was part of the first rock festival broadcast on network TV. My parents actually let me takeover the den and even supplied snacks and soda for my friends and I while we watched it. They even let me hack into their brand new (and first ) RCA 25” color TV to feed it into my home made vacuum tube hifi amplifiers and my Sony mono cassette recorder (I was a budding electronic/audio engineer at the time). It was such a wonderful day! My dad didn’t object which amazed me given how opposed he was to the long haired hippie thing that I had just gotten into although he had no interest in watching it. Only recently my younger sister told me that my mom said they allowed it to support me in the new music I’d become interested in and in my dreams of becoming an engineer. Funny, learning that 50 years later. My mom was a great mother who always encouraged us to focus on our dreams and make them our reality. I spent my life as an electronics engineer thanks to her. Much praise and love to my late mother. Little did I know that she and my father would be gone a few short years later. Thanks mom and dad!

I saw leslie West in the early 70s when was a kid j New Orleans. I think he was playing Nantucket sleigh ride and l saw a tear drop fall from his eye when he into the blues lead. At that point l know this guy had true soul. He could make his guitar drag feeling out of you. Ironically k am a musician now abd lost my right leg in a motorcycle crash after Katrina. It made me a better guitar player but l can't hold a candle next to Leslie. Hang in there bro. You are a true legend and inspiration!

John Horridge I am a true rock music fan. I’ve played drums for 30 years. I lost my right thumb because I broke a blood vessel from rehearsing for a high school drum solo. But it didn’t stop me from playing. I’ve got 1.5 thumbs, but I’m about to start gigging with a heavy rock band. We’re doing 2 Mountain songs. Mississippi Queen and Never In My Life. Even though I’m an 80’s kid, I still see how amazing these early 70’s American rock bands were. This was the beginning of “heavy metal” music.

I was at that show, then got to see them again at the field house. They let just a few of us in early & we got to see Mountain do their sound check. Corky flipped out kicked & threw his drums off the stage ended the show. What a night!!
