Corky Laing's Mountain 50th Anniversary Mississippi Queen Cowbell Tour w/ Eric Schenkman of The Spin Doctors
Corky Laings Mountain performs the classic Mountain repertoire (Mississippi Queen, Nantucket Sleighride, Never in My Life and others) with unparalleled enthusiasm and energy as it was originally recorded. People who have recently seen the band live, say that the show reminds them of the brilliant Mountain shows in the 70s.
The band features the living legend Corky Laing on drums and vocals, who hasnt lost any of the power and passion he has become known for. He is thrilled to be joined on stage by Richie the Emperor of Rock n Roll Scarlet on guitar (ex Ace Frehleys Comet & Mountain) and the multi-instrumentalist Mark Mikel (The Pillbugs & songwriter for Alan Parsons) on bass, keyboards, and vocals. Mountain Climbing! was released in March 1970, and 50 years on, the unmistakable cowbell intro still leads to the killer guitar lick that makes the ultimate rock classic; Mississippi Queen. The 50th anniversary of the Mississippi cowbell will also see the release of a new vinyl, Toledo Sessions, by Corky Laings Mountain and Corkys autobiography (first 50 years), Letters to Sarah will be featured in book signing events concurrent with the shows.
You may have seen ERIC SCHENKMAN, onstage before thousands of fans worldwide with the Spin Doctors. He is one of the bands not-so-secret weapons a vital songwriter and virtuoso guitarist who crafted the 90s band and co-wrote all five of their Top 100 hits. He also worked with Chico Hamilton, Carly Simon, Natalie Merchant, Noel Redding, Phoebe Snow and Corky Laing, among many other notable musicians.
