The Yardbirds

Welcome to Rock & Roll Flashback!  I'm Jumpin' John McDermott, and this episode is about the iconic and influential British Invasion band:  The Yardbirds!  Amazingly, The Yardbirds started the careers of not one, not two, but three of rock's greatest guitarists:  Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page.  All three guitarists ranked in the top five of Rolling Stone magazine's list of 100 greatest guitarists.  The band had a string of hits throughout the mid-1960s, including "For Your Love", "Heart Full of Soul", "Shapes of Things", and "Over Under Sideways Down".We welcome your feedback, so please feel free to click on this link and let us know your thoughts and/or suggestions via phone text!All podcasts on the Rock and Roll Flashback Podcast are produced by brothers-in-law Bill Price and "Jumpin' John" McDermott.  The Podcast Theme Song, "You Essay", was written by John.  It was initially recorded by Bill and John on April 1, 2004 with several revisions since then. Multiple promo videos and photos for Rock and Roll Flashback Podcasts are available on the following social media sites:https://www.youtube.com/@RockandRollFlashbackhttps://www.facebook.com/rockandrollflashbackpodcasthttps://www.instagram.com/jumpinjohnmcdermott/Bill and John welcome your feedback and comments, and they can be emailed to [email protected] you for listening to Rock and Roll Flashback Podcasts!Until next time...Rock On!
