You know if this year was a person, I swear I'd get an assault charge.
Neil, Eddie, Leslie...
I always loved his playing. Wow
 
FUCK

I heard through(internet ) his brother said he was in the hospital with congestive heart failure.
Was expecting the worse/hoping for the best
 
1970 ‘Climbing‘ with ‘Never In My Life’ and ‘Mississippi Queen‘ moved the needle on the Guitar-O-Meter, no doubt.
 
Got to have lunch with him and Elliott of Dean guitars. One funny fucker for sure. His stories about the Stern show were hilarious!

Thanks for the memories,kind sir.
 
I remember hearing this tune a long time ago on a guitar instrumental compilation cd and listening to it over and over - simple but haunting
RIP Leslie

 
Man, sad day
When Mississippi queen hit the radio, I lived in cali and they played it nonstop. Normally that makes me hate a song because I heard it too much, but his tone on that song was one of the first times I can ever remember thinking "That guitar tone is badass to its core"
Plus his vibrato was killer!
 
Theme from an imaginary Western badass. What Cream would have like to sound like. :eek:
