“This recently discovered live Yardbirds set was recorded prior to their amazing Five Live Yardbirds debut album and definitely adds to the band's already legendary status equaling (if not bettering) Five Live in both sound quality and performance. Here is what Yardbird Chris Dreja has to say about this recording: "This tape is just a very interesting historical piece," reckons Chris nearly forty years later. "It's pretty rough and ready. It's from an embryonic stage of the band, and an added interest is Keith's interchanges with the audience. The nature of this album is just this startling piece of history. It was ahead of its time. It's incredibly valid, plus it's The Yardbirds, plus it's Eric. There is nothing out there with such an intimate feel. That's what got to me. It was like being in the room again or up there on the stage, in that wonderful magic period." Tracklisting: Side A: Someone To Love Me, Too Much Monkey Business, I Got Love If You Want It, Smokestack Lightning Side B: Good Morning Little Schoolgirl, She Is So Respectable/Humpty Dumpty, The Sky Is Crying.” Gatefold. |
