Title: A Piece of History!
Product review: This CD is a must have chronicle for Yardbirds fans. Actually a performance of The Jim McCarty Band with special guest Chris Dreja. This group would soon morph into The YARDBIRDS as we know them today. Lead vocalist John Idan remains with the group though he has switched to bass guitar to make room for guitar whiz Gypie Mayo (Former Dr. Feelgood) and bass player/harmonica man Rod Demmick (Former Strawbs member) has departed to be replaced by noted blues man Alan Glen. But all in all this is the sound you'll hear if you catch the 21st century Yardbirds in action. Great rockin versions of Yardbird's standards plus some nice new songs too including the Jim McCarty penned "Cryin Out For Love" which the boys still perform in concert. Nice to hear how they do some traditional blues numbers like "Sittin On Top Of The World" as well. Get this CD-check out the new and improved Yardbirds when they come to your area. You wont be disappointed.
