Birdland (Favored Nations). Review by James Mann.
THE YARDBIRDS BIRDLAND Favored Nations It was of course inevitable that the reunion bus would at some point reach The Yardbirds. Never mind that singer Keith Relf has been dead since 1976. Or that the band's trio of legendary guitarists -- Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page -- have done pretty ...

Ultimate! (Rhino). Review by Hal Horowitz.
THE YARDBIRDS ULTIMATE! Rhino Leave it to Rhino to finally set the record straight on arguably England's most influential Brit-invasion blues/rock combo. The Yardbirds' skimpy catalog of albums, EPs, and previous compilations has been in disrepair almost since they were released 35 years ago, so this ...

Gail "Desperado" Worley continues her quest for the Alice Cooper quadfecta with an interview with Dennis Dunaway, original bassist for the band, Alice Cooper.
... the Stones came out, we became big Stones fans, so I really cut my teeth on the blues patterns of Bill Wyman. Then a friend of Glen's brought over a Yardbirds record, and that was it. The progressive style of Paul Samwell-Smith from the Yardbirds probably influenced my bass playing more than anyone ...

Jeff Beck at the Tabernacle in Atlanta, GA on March 5, 2001. Concert review by James Mann. Photos by John Davisson.
JEFF BECK The Tabernacle, Atlanta, GA March 5, 2001 by James Mann John Davisson Jeff Beck It is one of my serious regrets that I was unfortunately born years too late. If I had been a youth in the '40s and '50s, I would have camped out in New York City and seen Charlie Parker, Miles, and the rest ...

December 1998 :: Music C-D :: CIV (Gail Worley)
... record represents a risky throwback to ’60s-style melodic British garage rock. “Everyday” and “Shout It” have a real Yardbirds feel with the addition of tambourines and Mersey Beat-era keyboards that add some swing (as in fullness) to the arrangements. The smart pop riffs ...

Teaser and the Firecat
... tumbling out in 1970 and 1971. With his deep, smooth, honey-sandpaper voice and ideal production by Paul Samwell-Smith (guitarist/bassist for the Yardbirds, of all things), who was as much an architect of the immaculate sound and texture of these albums as was its star, Stevens rolled out the 32 tracks ...

September 1999 :: Music A-B :: Blues Power (James Mann)
... and movie soundtracks, but back a decade or two, Clapton defined rock and blues guitar. As a wee lad, he got his start playing rock and roll in the Yardbirds, then jumped ship to join John Mayall's Bluesbreakers. It was here he proved that pale white English boys could play the blues. From there it ...

May 1999 :: Ink Spots :: Los Lobos (David Lee Simmons (courtesy )
... , then you go home and your brother's band is playing James Brown in the garage, then you turn on the TV and it's the Beatles and Jeff Beck and the Yardbirds." Still, Los Lobos was little more than "just another band from East L.A." (to quote their sarcastically titled greatest-hits compilation) until ...

Original Artyfacts from the British Empire and Beyond (Rhino). Review by James Mann.
... noise the rest of the world was making from 1964 to 1969, is just as illuminating. Four discs of mostly unheard pleasures, they range from solidly Yardbirds-influenced guitar rock to the strange expressions of artists such as Brazil's Os Mutantes. As a historical document, the set is invaluable in tracing ...

The Coral (Deltasonic/Columbia). Review by Matt Cibula.
... :25. So when they pull out the psychedelic pop jammy on "Calendars and Clocks," or when they find the groove in the nonexistent-spy-movie-soundtrack Yardbirds-ripoff tune "Waiting for the Heartaches," you will love these six insane bastards. So hurry up and love them; their second album's just coming ...
