Description

Although together for only five years The Yardbirds exerted tremendous influence on the music and style of the '60s and for decades beyond.

Their impact has been felt throughout the rock genre from psychedelia to blues-rock heavy metal and the music of today's jam bands.

The Yardbirds came from middle-class England embraced the soulful music of the African-American South and helped re-import it back into the States as the embryo of heavy metal music.

In the process the band produced three guitar greats: Eric Clapton Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck.

Every fan of The Yardbirds or of '60s-derived music in general will revel in this book (which includes more than 50 photos from the group's heyday plus a detailed diary of every gig recording and broadcast they did) and enjoy reading the stories ä old and new ä as much as Clayson enjoys telling them.
