Two CD set, a comprehensive collection of the Yardbirds' BBC live recordings, assembled with the assistance of the BBC, with several tracks now all together the first time on this newly restored and remastered set. Many tracks have been expertly repaired from rare, hard-to-find and archive sources and now feature for the first time on these best available recordings. Sourced from the BBC, this newly updated set covers numerous songs - including smash hits such as For Your Love', 'Heart Full Of Soul' and Yardbirds classic stage favorites 'Too Much Monkey Business', 'Smokestack Lightning', 'I m A Man' and 'Train Kept A-Rollin'. Guitar legends Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page feature alongside front man Keith Relf, Paul Samwell-Smith and Jim McCarty in these sessions, recorded by the world renowned broadcasting organization for radio transmission and these CDs explore the best available Yardbirds BBC Radio One output from 1965-1968. The booklet, with detailed data, includes authoritative liner notes by Richard Morton Jack, editor of Flashback magazine, and contains new quotes from Yardbirds Jim McCarty and Paul Samwell-Smith. Jim McCarty also adds his exclusive personal introduction for this set, looking back at those BBC years.
