Superb Performances It has pretty decent sound for a live recording from that time period!. It was fun to compare the progression and developement of the live guitar work of Eric Clapton when with the Yardbirds and troughout the years.
Hot fresh raw performance, the early light of Eric Clapton..
Portions of this material were originally available in the US as just one side of the LP "Having a Rave Up With the Yardbirds," our first taste of how hot the band was in concert. Ignore commentary that this was "the poorest" version of the Yardbirds; it is only "poor" if you prefer artistic nuances like raga stylings and instruments to great raw live shows. Our first real exposure to Eric Clapton's power, so how can you lose? Ultimately "Five Live" arrived at our shores and now we have several versions available to choose from, so be careful which one you buy so you don't feel left short. .
