Description

Leslie West - The Great Fatsby (1976)
Leslie West at his shmoozenist, oozinest, heaviest best. Lovely ballads walk arm-in-arm with ass-booting heaviness. Mick Jagger on guitar (no vocals) makes for an interesting touch on the second half of this two record disc. Somehow, for the entirety of the disk, you keep getting blown away just when you think it can get no heavier. Leslie's ability to bait the listener off guard, coupled with his ability to pummel home the hard rock message, speaks to the duality of this two ton "twister" of hearts and ears alike, tugging on the heartstrings before blowing the entire load in your disbelieving face. Hear this if you want to be able to sneak the rock in on your girlfriend in-between songs she'll say are "nice."
