ALBUM INFO:
‘Five Live Yardbirds’ is the band’s live debut album, recorded at the Marquee Club, London, in March 1964. Many of the songs on the album including ‘I’m A Man’ and ‘Here Tis’ feature a “Rave Up”, which is an instrumental interlude which starts low and builds to a climax. Clapton credits the rave up to bassist Paul Samwell-Smith.
In October 1963 the Yardbirds took over The Rolling Stones position at the Crawdaddy Club and signed a contract with Crawdaddy owner Giorgio Gomelsky. After the group went on tour with Sonny Boy Williamson, the band got a contract with Columbia Records and released the singles ‘I Wish You Would’ and ‘Good Morning Little School Girl’.
COVER:
Richard Rosser (photography)
PRODUCTION:
Giorgio Gomelsky (producer, liner notes)
Phillip Wood (engineer, sound effects engineer)
VINYL:
(Ex-) There are several light surface marks, however these do not affect the play and sound wise plays Ex+ .
COVER: FRONT&BACK:
(VG+) Overall the cover is in excellent condition; even better, but for the name on the back, as so many records have from this period, the front has only a few laminate creases the only fault is that to the top right hand corner, someone has artistically drawn their name, please consult the pictures. There are however no sticker marks or tears to the sleeve.
EDGES/SPINE:
The edges are free from any damage and the spine has a little laminate peel.
INNER SLEEVE:
This is the original inner sleeve and is free from any damage, with just a few light creases to the corners.
LABELS:
Clean, no damage or writing.
AUDIO GRADING:
I play all LP's on my Pioneer PL 550-X. This album overall plays excellent with no jumps, clicks, pops or distortion; the only thing to note is that there is some light background noise, however this does not spoil a truly fantastic listen!

I use preformed and standard mailers with stiffeners. I always take the vinyl out in its inner sleeve and place on top of the cover. This is then placed into a soft protective sleeve and packaged with stiffeners for full protection.
