- My top ten favourite Yardbirds songs.
I can't decide completely on the order so these can be considered kind of interchangable.
Note: Video is intentionally slow, audio should be fine.
A British blues-rock band formed in 1962, previously included guitarists Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page. Line-ups changed but it generally comprised of Keith Relf on harmonica/vocals, Chris Dreja on rhythm guitar, Paul Samwell-Smith on bass, and Jim McCarty on drums.
Some of the best Blues ever !!!!! Just fantastic !!! Page loved playing the Blues.
The Yardbirds gotta be the '60s most underrated band! Too bad for them that have done so much to music and great for us because now we can all brag that we know more about '60s rock than the average guy out there! ;)
How I loved that band. Yardbirds started my lifelong interest in music, the blues, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and so much more. I was 16 years old, when the first record came out, and I was'nt turned on to The Stones yet at that time. Those memories.
1: Heart Full Of Soul
2: Shapes Of Things
3: Still I'm Sad
4: Happenings Ten Years Time Ago
5: For Your Love
>always gotta crank up the volume for The Yardbirds!!!
#1 Yardbirds song for me is Psycho Daisies. Beck and Page, guitars right on the edge of feedback throughout most of the song. Powerful, visceral blues-based travelogue. With Mary Hughes name-checked to boot!
#2 Lost Woman. One of rock's great bass lines, a powerful Beck solo, and a Yardbirds rave up, all in about two minutes
#3 Turn Into Earth. Beck's distant, ethereal lead in the background makes one strain to lean in and say,"What is that? Turn it up!"
#4... Anything else on Roger the Engineer where Beck takes a lead and blisters it like it's a first take, which it probably was.
Over Under Sideways Down, Still I'm Sad, Evil Hearted You, Shapes of Things, White Summer
A nice selection!.. Thank you, my friend! ;-)
This music defined the 60's for me.
@LedHeadTillDeath That's what I like about the Yardbirds, they've done so many different styles; blues, rockabilly, hard rock, psych and the list goes on. They brought so much to music! My favourite of their period is with Jeff Beck when they really started exploring the psych sound with the big fuzz and more introspective lyrics.
Love it !!!
my vote; "shapes of things" and "I'm a man",the first song I learned on bass :)
@68generation That's an epic number 1! =D
Ah yes, I love You're A Better Man Than I, maybe that should've been on my list too!
where is over under sideways down at.
@TheNiceroad You caught me; definitely more into the bluesy Yardbirds myself.
Shapes of Things, Over Under Sideways Down and Happenings Ten Years Time Ago are definitely missing from this video. Maybe are you just more into the bluesy (early Yardbirds) stuff while I am all about the psych sound...
Mr you're better
than I ? Best song
heute so gut wie am Anfang
Evil Hearted You. Shapes of Things. Can't beat those two tunes.
No one Jimmy Page era song, yet the video is from that era. lol. Nothing from Roger The Engineer, Little Games or various singles released toward the end?
Spanish blood, white summer, I'm a man is good ones too.
Jim was a great drummer.
He still is.
What??? No "Over Under Sideways Down"??? Definitely my favorite Yardbirds song.
Still I'm Dad, Psycho Daisies, Over Under Sideways Down, White Summer, Evil Hearted You
@666gravity Lol blasphemy, eh! I don't know why I've never really been into those songs -- maybe I should go listen to them again =P
When I told my friends jimmy page and Eric Clapton were in a band together
They laughed at me
When the googled it
Only I was laughing
They weren't in the band together. Not at the same time. Beck and Page were in the band together at one point.
same band but not at the same time, u mean Jeff Beck
@@Zigblat 😂
I love their clothing lol
60s clothes are lit🔥
Yardbirds are to the Beatles as Led Zeppelin is to the Wings, it’s just that Zeppelin was way more popular than the yardbirds
not the beatles not the stones
something entirely different and better
'
Louise is #1. so catchy and Claptons playing is sooo good in it.
They made the Beatles. The Beatles first couple years were nothing but carry over Doo Wop from the 50s.
Great band but not their best top ten...not even close. For me, Heart Full of Soul is #1 and NYC Blues isn't even in the top 10. Animals version of Boom Boom blows this away.
