My Tribute to Leslie West...

I have the "Livin on Hard Times" 12" single from the late 1980's.

Mississippi Queen was the one "calssic" my metal band played back then.

Sounded great when either of our singers sang it (shy fat guy that could sing Rob Halford, or Nina Blackwood lookin'n girl that sang King Diamond) although we had to cajole the girl into singing about a girl.

Having your trademark song sill played on the radio is one of the closest things to immortality.

Rock on, Mr. West!
