If the single-disc Mountain collection THE BEST OF leaves you hungry for more from this powerful blues-metal band, then the 1995 double disc OVER THE TOP is guaranteed to satisfy your appetite. Weighing in at a hefty 34 tracks in length, there's a wealth of hits, key album tracks, and rarities, plus a pair of newly recorded songs, guaranteed to appeal to both the longtime fan and the newcomer.
If you're an admirer of late-'60s turbo-charged blues rock (a la Cream, Ten Years After, and Led Zeppelin), then you're sure to enjoy such heavy rockers as "Don't Look Around," "Mississippi Queen," "Crossroader," and "Never in My Life." In addition, there's such mellow fare as "Nantucket Sleighride," and "Theme for an Imaginary Western."
