Leslie West is offering fans an early glimpse of his upcoming Soundcheck LP by premiering the album's seventh track, a cover of Curtis Mayfield's "People Get Ready.
Leslie West is arguably one of hard rock's pioneering guitarists. Going back to the late '60s -- when his peers included Jimi Hendrix, Pete Townshend and Eric Clapton -- he's had an instantly identifiable style. From his trailblazing work with Mountain through his solo recordings, West and his guitar were a mighty force. He's lost little of his six-string fire on 'Still Climbing.'
