It would be great to hear a Yardbirds concert with both Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck on dual lead guitars. Both of them played together with the Yardbirds at the Filmore West on Oct 23, 1966. Would it be possible for you to put this show up if you have it.

Thanks in advance


 

I agree with you! Actually, it would be nice to listen to any concert with the Yardbirds. Personally I would like to hear some later stuff after Beck left. It is very hard to find Yardbirds bootlegs out there so an upload would be much appreciated!

I have just created a Yardbirds performer forum and move this thread there.

Domo Arigato!

I've been looking for a Yardbirds concert every week since Vault Radio began. It would be history making if you have this concert as there are absolutely no concert recordings featuring both Beck and Page on guitar with the Yardbirds.

Couldn't agree more. Putting up a recording that NO ONE has ever heard before like a Yardbirds concert featuring both Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck on lead guitars would be truly monumental.

Pretty please with sugar on top make it happen.

The Yardbirds would be great regardless of  the line up.  A live recording of the Beck/Page line up would be superb but I could make do with either one of them.

Some great concerts have been posted to the Concert Vault but we're still hoping for a Yardbirds concert. There are only three recorded songs of the Yardbirds which document the Page/Beck lineup. Happenings Ten Years Time Ago and Psycho Daisies were recorded in September 1966. Stroll On  from Michelangelo Antonioni's famous movie Blow Up was in early October 1966. The Yardbirds then embarked on a US tour and played the Fillmore on October 23, 1966. Alan Clayson indicates in his book "The Yardbirds" that it was a great show.

We all know this information already. Why post it here? No one is interested in studio recordings. We want a live recording of the Beck/Page dual lead guitar lineup. Stop trying to impress everyone and post something useful.

Love,
Mackey

Wow such negativity. Though you did succeed in bumping the Yardbirds thread :)

Aren't we all here to hear some good new/old music (hopefully they will put something that isn't already circulating out soon).

My impression of the post about the Page/Beck recordings is that it was directed at Wolfgang's Vault people to highlight just how rare a recording of the two of them would be, rather than to hard-core fans.

Cause we know that if such a concert was posted then there would be Yardbirds fans, Jeff Beck fans and Led Zeppelin fans all coming to this site to listen to it. It would certainly generate a lot of interest.

Yeah, it looks like they played there at least three times. Presumably first with the Beck lineup, and then the Beck/Page lineup, and then the Page lineup. The band was reduced to a 4-piece after Beck left and was less dynamic than the 5-live Yardbirds.

Personally I prefer the Yardbirds with Beck in the band, whether Page is there or not, but my preference for releasing the tapes (if there are any) would be in this order:

1) Beck/Page lineup
2) Beck lineup
3) Page lineup

But of course, by all means, release any and all.

Took pics at Yardies Toronto show last year. Last song was a fab trib to any fan of The LZ.

Yeah sounds good any fan worth her-his rock n roll good times would love to hear any page beck co-production live.  Come on folks groove a little.

If any fans would like some copies for promo use only!

Not in this for the money folks. Met a cool bass player I'll run by his uk email first so any fans out there emails are well come.

Over under sideways Beck...Eye mean Jimmy.

A Yardbirds concert with Beck and Page certainly would be a milestone. Meanwhile, some Beck- or Page-era Yardbirds would be most welcome.

Just ringing in to bring life to the thread.

I still keep checking in hoping to find a Yardbirds concert added to the lineup.

Of course, my pick would be the '66, Oct. 23rd concert but beggers cant be choosers.

I will take any scrap that drops from Wolfgangs table.
