Comments for The Yardbirds, Greatest Hits

Four typos to be corrected in the track list: #3 should read "Got to Hurry" #6 should read "Evil Hearted You" #13 should read "A Certain Girl" #14 should read "I Ain't Got You" This release is yet another collection of various Yardbirds tracks from 1964-67, some of them hit singles, others more obscure tracks. Eric Clapton is heard on tracks 1,2,4,5,13, &14. Jeff Beck is present on tracks 6-12,15,&16. Jimmy Page is on tracks 3&12. (Track 12 is the alternate version of track 15 that was used in the famous '67 Antonioni film "Blow-Up".)

correction to previous comment: track 3 features Clapton, not Page -st@hp

Listen all you youngsters: DO NOT buy the Yardbirds on CD!! You have to get the original MONO copies of their original LPs. EMI of Britain has possession of the original masters and won't release them. And if you get the stereo version they are "Electronically rechanneled" trashy-sounding reverb-drenched "songs" that explain why the "Beatles 65" version of "I Feel Fine" sounds like it was recorded in a trash can. Stupid money-hungry record labels. P---es me off.
