4.0 out of 5 stars Great Clapton/Beck Comp, February 14, 2003
By Quick Parkly (FREEHOLD, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
This one has all of the pre-Page Clapton/Beck stuff you'd want. However, if you're not a fan of mono recordings you might want to skip this one. Most of the tracks are in that form. The booklet gives a nice, concise history of the band. No other pics than the one that's on the cover, though.

4.0 out of 5 stars WHERE IS ROGER THE ENGINEER?, June 5, 2005
By alain robert (ST-HUBERT,QUÉBEC) - See all my reviews
Good overview of the group until 1966,but i don't know why they did not include tracks from their only studio classic:ROGER THE ENGINEER.Live tracks showcase ERIC CLAPTON's talent.You get the story alright with a missing spot;not an ordinary one because we are talking about a certain guy called JIMMY PAGE.EVIL HEARTED YOU remains my favorite YARDBIRD song;that guitar sound of the sixties wow!So, if you never heard the group,you should buy THE ULTIMATE(without COLLECTION),you will have the perfect anthology.

3.0 out of 5 stars A decent collection, but note this error in the track listing!!, March 10, 2007
By ronzoni "ronzoni" (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
The last track on disc 2 is NOT "Stroll On" as claimed on the package contents. The real "Stroll On" was recorded for the movie "Blow Up" and is a different version of "Train 'Kept A Rollin'" with revised lyrics. The track called "Stroll On" featured in this collection is actually a studio take of "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" without vocals.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ultimately a disappointment
The Yardbirds were a fine group of musicians but in my opinion, only the covers hold up well. Their own song writing is dated. Read more
