PowerPoint PresentationIn the summer of 1966, Yardbird Paul SamwellSmith left the group to pursue a career as a record producer ndash his replacement was studio session guitarist Jimmy Page. With Page in the fold, the band began to explore heavier, more progressive sounds. lsquoHappenings Ten Years Time Agorsquo is the finest example of this, fully showcasing the duallead guitar line up of Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck in a fullonnbspsixstring apocalypse. Whilst the single was not a commercial success at the time of release, it has since been recognised for itrsquos pioneering sound and appears at number three on Record Collectorrsquos list of the lsquo100 Greatest Psychedelic Recordsrsquo. Itrsquos lasting influence has been far reaching, inspiring artists including Jimi Hendrix, Syd Barrett, The Stooges, Sparks, Todd Rundgren, and Mudhoney. The Bside features lsquoPsycho Daisiesrsquo, another dose of the Yardbirds firing on all cylinders with explosive bursts of guitar. Clocking in at just under two minutes, lsquoPsycho Daisiesrsquo is a protopunk gem and would be the final appearance of Jeff Beck on record with the Yardbirds. This new reissue has been mastered by Phil Kinrade and cut by Jasper Ward at AIR Mastering. Housed in a heavystock card sleeve featuring the rare German issue cover with spot UV detailing.
