The Yardbirds – Heart Full of Soul: The Best Of (12-Inch Album)

This fantastic 17-track anthology gathers together highlights from across the Yardbirds’ storied career.

Formed in London in 1963, the Yardbirds were one of the most influential bands of the 1960s. With their mix of forward-thinking pop singles, wiry blues numbers, and instrumental freakouts, they became pioneers of psychedelia, garage and blues rock. 

Along with the core line-up of Keith Relf (vocals and harmonica), Jim McCarty (drums), Paul Samwell-Smith (bass), and Chris Dreja (rhythm guitar), the group are known for launching the careers of three of rock’s most famous guitarists, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page.

Assembled with the assistance of the band, this new compilation is the first official vinyl collection in decades to gather together tracks from across the Clapton, Beck, and Page eras, showcasing the vast musical progression that the band made between 1963 and 1968.

This release is housed in a printed inner sleeve featuring new liner notes by David French.
