They Were Better Than This

The Yardbirds : The Ultimate Collection. Er, no not really. Two out of three ain't bad but this Yardbirds compilation doesn't do the band justice. There are good tracks but nothing from the Roger The Engineer album and nothing from the death throes of the band with Jimmy Page. Instead there are some feeble demos from very, very early days before even Clapton joined. Still, cheap enough and two thirds of the two disc set is ok.
