A band that only existed a couple of years, but during that short time succeeded to secure an obvious place in music history. The brush between singer/guitarist Leslie West's ragged rock'n'roll and singer/bassist/producer Felix Pappalardi's sweet melodic approach resulted in a special blend of sugar and salt, still unique today and still very tasty. This was the only original compilation, released a year after the band broke up. Containing tracks from their first three LP:s - "Climbing", "Nantucket Sleighride" and "Flowers Of Evil" - recorded 1970-71 https://monolover.blogspot.com/search?q=%28M%C3%96U*%29 . With compilations one can have differing opinions about tracking - which songs doesn't belong and which should be there instead - but here I'm very pleased. A representative collection of songs showing their full range. Go so many favorites, but to choose two - "Nantucket Sleighride" and "Crossroader". Issued and reissued on all possible formats all over the world through the years. Premiere US on Columbia/Windfall (KC 32079). US 2003 CD on Columbia/Legacy (CK 61574) came with four bonus tracks. First UK had label as shown here in a matt fold/out cover. (MÖU*)
