Default The Yardbirds

They are probably my favorite 1960's Blues-Rock and Roll group.

In addition to the above question, I'd ask anyone else whoever seen them live to share their experience, and any of you younger folks who have heard them since to opine with how they have altered or reinforced your own musical palette.

Cheers

Probably the coolest band of the 60's, along with The Kinks.

Yeah Jeff Beck too. Any fans of brilliant gitar rock should own the seminal Beck-Ola, sh[i]t ,even Rod Stewart sounds the bollocks on this!
