Classic rock / hard rock super-stars Dee Snider, Slash, Zakk Wylde, Randy and Tal Bachman, Martin Barre, Joe Lynn Turner, Charlie Starr, Elliot Easton, Robby Krieger, George Lynch, Marty Friedman, Steve Morse, Eddie Ojeda, Yngwie Malmsteen, Slash, Marc Labelle, Mike Portnoy, Bobby Rondinelli and more, all contribute performances celebrating Leslie West in this “Legacy; A Tribute to Leslie West“.
When Leslie West passed away in December of 2020, he left behind a towering legacy of epic recordings that few rock guitarists can match. But there was more to West than great songs (although, to be sure, he created a ton of them); there was his brilliant, idiosyncratic sound, a gargantuan earth-mover that razed arenas and stadiums across the globe. More than just paralyzing tone, though, he also had a touch nobody could beat. It helped to make West one of the most significant, influential and irreplaceable guitarists of the rock era.
An astonishing array of West’s admirers – who also happened to be friends and peers – came together to celebrate the trailblazing musician.
