Rock guitarist Leslie West of Mountain fame has passed. The group had a big hit with "Mississippi Queen" in the Seventies.

Legendary guitarist, and according to Eddie Van Halen, one of his biggest influences.

He was a frequent guest on the Howard Stern show....had a great sense of humor.

One of my favorites. Got to see him play live about 10 years ago. Even though he was in a wheelchair, he ripped on the guitar....he always had a great tone too. RIP LW.
