Not sure how many will care about a new solo album from ex-Mountain front-man Leslie West (who recently had one of his legs amputated from diabetes), however, it's got some pretty impressive guests that might garner some interest...

'Unusual Suspects' track listing:
01. One More Drink For The Road (ft. Steve Lukather)
02. Mudflap Mama (ft. Slash)
03. To The Moon
04. Standing On A Higher Ground (ft. Billy F. Gibbons)
05. Third Degree (ft. Joe Bonamassa)
06. Legend
07. Nothing's Changed (ft. Zakk Wylde)
08. I Feel Fine
09. Love You Forever
10. You & Me
11. Turn Out The Lights (ft. Slash & Zakk Wylde)
12. Beetle "I Don't Know" (Bonus track)


Track 11 is of particular interest to me. Hearing them 2 together could be wickedly awesome or a horrible mess, depending on your opinion of either player.

The guy is a legend and deserves praise, not derision. Didn't know about the amputation, but glad he's still alive. I'll definitely give this one a listen.

Thanks for the info!

The leg thing was just a coupla weeks ago...

I have a Best of Mountain and a blues album he put out a coupla years ago. Good stuff.
