Album Review

There are no shortage of quality Yardbirds retrospectives, but this 1999 release from the Recall label is pretty stacked. It's got 36 tracks spread over two CDs that include the classics ("Shapes of Things," "For Your Love," "I'm a Man," etc.), various covers and eight live tracks, but is pretty scant on liner notes. Rhino's 50-track Ultimate! is still the best anthology to date, but this Ultimate Collection would make a great find used or in a cutout bin.

Don't blame iTunes
     
by Dribdray

Sadly, poor quality, mono recordings are all that have ever been availible. I bought "Heart Full of Soul" on a 45 when it was first released in the sixties, it sounds exactly the same as this version. I have original Yardbird vinyl and it's all poor quality recordings. Find a copy of "Little Games" to hear an actual quality stereo Yardbird recording.

POOR AUDIO QUALITY, SHAME ON iTUNES!

I was searching for Heart Full of Soul and thought it was the streaming that made the sample sound bad, only to find it was the same poor quality on the download! find a better quality recording elsewhere!

Stroll on by the Yardbirds - buy the one with Herbie Hancock as artist
     
by peterh99

Stroll On - a reworking of Train Kept a Rollin - is the ultimate psychedelic blues rock cut featuring Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page on double lead guitar. It is featured in the movie Blowup, where the band performs it in a club.As of 6/12/07, both tracks listed by iTunes as Stroll On by the Yardbirds are actually a different song. But the version listed with Herbie Hancock as artist is actually the Yardbirds performance. That Hancock did the movie soundtrack (except for Stroll On) is probably the explanation. You can verify that it's the Ybirds by double-clicking it for a free 20 second sample. . Btw Hancock's jazz pieces on the soundtrack are very enjoyable - light and breezy.

Years Active: '60s

The Yardbirds are mostly known to the casual rock fan as the starting point for three of the greatest British rock guitarists: Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page.
