I haven't heard this in over 40 years... Three Marshall stacks... Loud as hell
Felix Pappalardi on fuzzed out bass... I loved this show...
Good times!

Here's another great example of that early 70's cranked Marshall tone. Fat, and Nasty and just awesome.

Dude was really good. Reminds me of Creme tho. Must an era/genre thing.

According to Wiki, 1974 would make Leslie about 29 years,old. Awesome.

...and here I thought I was the Elder in here.
Three red Marshall stacks do tend to leave an impression huh.

You can tell that the amp is loud as FUCK! That's how you got the gritty tone back then that we take for granted back today with are corksniffer douchy modern high gain amps..

Joe Walsh was about 24 here. FUCK..

Yup. We have it easy these days, back then they had to work those amps HARD to get that tone, grit, gain etc...raw rock n roll right there. Great stuff!
