The Yardbirds: Keith Relf (vocals, harmonica); Chris Dreja, Eric 'Slowhand' Clapton (guitar); Paul 'Sam' Samwell-Smith (electric bass); Jim McCarty (drums).
Recording information: Marquee Club, London, England (1964).
Few British Beat groups attempted in-concert recordings, but this proved a natural vehicle for the Yardbirds. One of the era's most popular live attractions, the set captures their exciting interpretation of British R&B. Their arrangements of blueswailing material by Howlin' Wolf, Bo Diddley and Slim Harpo are exceptional and their prowess as musicians is immediately self-evident. Keith Relf proves himself an accomplished harmonica player while Eric Clapton's guitarwork lays the foundation for his future recordings. Where many contemporaries struggled to complete wholly satisfying live albums, the Yardbirds did so with breath to spare.
