Live! Blueswailing July '64 is a live album by English rock group the Yardbirds. The recordings were discovered in 2003 and when the album was released that year, the date and location of the performance was uncertain. However, it since has been determined that it was recorded at the Marquee Club in London on 7 August 1964. As with the group's British debut album (recorded at the Marquee in March) it contains some of the earliest live recordings with guitarist Eric Clapton. Recording After the song "Got Love If You Want It", it is announced that Eric Clapton's guitar needs to be tuned, and in the meantime, Keith Relf tells the story of how at an earlier gig, Chris Dreja's Gibson guitar was broken in two by a falling speaker cabinet. He also claims that Clapton's guitar is the only black Fender Jazzmaster in the world. Dreja adds: Critical reception AllMusic reviewer Thom Jurek gave the album three out of five stars. He believes that the Yardbirds' performance and the sound quality of the recording is superior to the group's first live album, Five Live Yardbirds (1964). He notes: Track listing Songwriters and track running times are taken from the original Castle/Sanctuary CD. Other releases may have different listings.
