Summary by neumaticos porpoco
Comments
5:42 -- DJ: WTF?
Yardbirds '68 is a two-CD album that constitutes the first official release of material from the last year of the band's existence. Much of it has been much bootlegged over the years, but the sound quality here is far superior to any of the bootlegs I've come across. The first CD contains the band's appearance at the Anderson Theater on March 30, 1968. The band (Keith Relf, Jimmy Page, Chris Dreja, and Jim McCarty) give an energetic performance. It's interesting to hear how this final quartet version of the band sounds on the older material originally recorded with Jeff Beck. An early version of what would become Led Zeppelin's "Dazed and Confused" is also included. The second CD consists of studio demos. One of the songs was reworked subsequently as "Tangerine" by Led Zeppelin.
Post punk Zepplin
3:48 I can't believe Jimmy was playing like this in 1968. He is absolutely shredding it. It always used to make me so jealous watching him solo on The Song Remains The Same. Without a doubt one of the greatest guitarist of all time.
The vocals don't match the guitar good thing Robert fixed it
incroyable
You mean what a difference Robert Plant makes! OMG!
This is like a bad cover band with one really good player who you think should leave this band for a better one.
Jimmy fuck yeah fuck you
Love this version of Jake Holmes’ song.
Really need RP magic
