RECORD EX but (please, also read above description)
SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)
An exploitative album, released in 1965 shortly after the Yardbirds had their first American hits.
This is a live show from late 1963, on which Chicago blues great Sonny Boy Williamson
is backed by an extremely green Yardbirds. Yes, Eric Clapton is on here;
no, he doesn't play well, managing some thin, extremely tentative solos that find him
stumbling occasionally. It's really not that bad, though, as Sonny Boy himself sings well.
But it should really be treated as a Sonny Boy Williamson release that happens
to have a soon-to-be-famous-but-still-embryonic band in the background,
in the manner of the sides the Beatles cut in Hamburg supporting Tony Sheridan...(AllMusic)
