Album Notes
Featuring two different lineups of the seminal British R&B outfit, RAVE UP WITH THE YARDBIRDS distills tracks from their UK debut album FIVE LIVE YARDBIRDS, featuring guitarist Eric Clapton, and a later collection of studio recordings featuring Clapton's replacements, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page. It includes several classics, including the almost-hit "Heart Full of Soul," the eastern-influenced drones of "Still I'm Sad" (around this time, every UK band was doing their Indian music thing), and the Ray Davies-like social commentary of "Mister, You're A Better Man Than I."
In the grand tradition of American record labels mucking about with the contents of British bands' albums, HAVING A RAVE UP WITH THE YARDBIRDS is a mishmash that actually stars two different lineups of the band. Side one is new studio material with new lead guitarist Jeff Beck, and it includes several classics, including the almost-hit "Heart Full of Soul," the eastern-influenced drones of "Still I'm Sad" (around this time, every UK band was doing their Indian music thing) and the Ray Davies-like social commentary of "Mister, You're A Better Man Than I." Side two cuts the UK-only FIVE LIVE YARDBIRDS (the group's debut album, with original lead guitarist Eric Clapton) down to a single LP side, a worthy distillation that shows off both Clapton and singer Keith Relf to their best advantage. "Train Kept A-Rollin'" that debuted the new lineup that added second guitarist Jimmy Page.
