YARDBIRDS - YARDBIRDS[ROGER THE ENGINEER] Price: €26.99 Format: Compact Disc Availability: Immediate Dispatch

First released in the summer of 1966, ‘Yardbirds' (or ‘Roger The Engineer' as it became known') showcases the Yardbirds at the peak of their powers. Featuring the classic line-up of Jeff Beck, Keith Relf, Jim McCarty, Chris Dreja, and Paul Samwell-Smith, the group explored explosive new sonic territories, pushing their blues-rock sound into the realms of the avant-garde, psychedelia and Indian music.

This new 2CD edition features the complete stereo and mono mixes of the album plus a selection of bonus rarities and singles on each disc.

The album has been remastered from the original tapes by Phil Kinrade at AIR Mastering, overseen by producer Paul Samwell-Smith.

“Remastering this album has been a joy. To hear the tracks sounding just as we heard them all those years ago while we were recording them - energetic, edgy, and in your face - is an unexpected treat. In 1966, it was a rare and exciting opportunity to be given a recording studio for 5 days and allowed to experiment. That excitement still shows.” - Paul Samwell-Smith.
