THE YARDBIRDS

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. 

Undoubtedly, these three figures did much to shape the group's sound, but throughout their career, 

The Yardbirds were very much a unit, albeit a rather unstable one. 

And they were truly one of the great rock bands; one whose contributions went far beyond 

the scope of their half dozen or so mid-'60s hits ("For Your Love," "Heart Full of Soul," 

"Shapes of Things," "I'm a Man," "Over Under Sideways Down," "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago")


"THE YARDBIRDS"

[originally released in 1966 in UK as "The Yardbirds", 

in Europe & North America as "Over Under Sideways Down", 

and in Australia and later pressings/reissues as "Roger The Engineer"]

SLEEVE EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)

Once Jeff Beck joined the Yardbirds, the group began to explore uncharted territory, 

expanding their blues-rock into wild sonic permutations of psychedelia, 

Indian music, and avant-garde white noise. Each subsequent single displayed 

a new direction, one that expanded on the ideas of the previous single, 

so it would seem that Yardbirds (aka "Roger the Engineer" -- Beck's first full 

album with the group and the band's first album of all-original material,

would have offered them the opportunity to fully explore their adventurous inclinations. 

It is the Yardbirds' best individual studio album, offering some of their very best psychedelia, 

even if it doesn't rank among the great albums of its era
