One Hit Wonder: ‘Mississippi Queen’ by Mountain

April 30, 2024

“Mississippi Queen” may sound like the kind of song to come out of the Skynyrd influenced world of southern rock, but it’s actually performed by Mountain, a group of Long Island natives. The band got together in 1969, just in time to perform at Woodstock (talk about good timing) before snagging this #21 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1970. The group broke up two years later, proving the adage that it’s best to get in and get out.  H/T>
