Elliot Easton & Ronnie Romero - 'Sittin' On A Rainbow' (A Tribute To Leslie West)

Sitting on a rainbow looking at the world
Standin' by the roadside waiting for my girl

Earning time, earning pay
When the sunshine's on its way
This is what you'll hear me say

Riding on a jet plane higher than a bird
Looking out the window don't believe a word

Earning time, earning pay
When the sunshine's on its way
This is what you'll hear me say

Leslie West: (σπουδαίος) Αμερικανός κιθαρίστας, τραγουδιστής και συνθέτης. Έγινε γνωστός λόγω των Mountain. Γεννήθηκε το φθινόπωρο του 1945 και απεβίωσε πρόπερσι (προπαραμονή των Χριστουγέννων του 2020).

Η δισκογραφική εταιρεία Mascot Records τιμά την μνήμη του Αμερικανού καλλιτέχνη με την κυκλοφορία δίσκου υπό τον τίτλο "Legacy: A Tribute To Leslie West" που "βγήκε" στα τέλη Μαρτίου.
