[wildschwein]

I found this awesome thread at another forum - lots of great Beck and Page-era Yardbird pics and some from later too; many on stage; plenty of gear to be seen.

Those are just phenomenal pics right there-really a history of British rock guitar (minus Clapton and Green!). Thanks for the link-I have to take a lot of time some day to view all 15 pages of that thread.

Wow!!

[wildschwein]

Oh yeah; a lot of the thread revolves around Beck and Page's fuzz boxes. Seems to raise more questions than answers though?

[Pete Faragher]

Nice pix......thanks for that !!!!!

[Suproman77]

Awesome! Love the Bouton Rouge pics...one of my favorite live shows ever. Page's tone was to die for.

I think it's called Blow Up (as in a photographer blowing up a photo). Great movie - photographer discovers that far in the background of one of his pics he has photographed a murder. The murderers discover this fact then go after him for the rest of the movie. There's a chase scene where the photog goes running through a club where The Yardbirds (w/Beck and Page) are playing Train Kept a Rollin'. Great scene and a great movie. btw, the movie is in Italian. Bring your dictionaries!

...I've never seen the Italian dubbed version..."Que Palle" But the original is in English. The Yardbirds was the first rock concert that I went to...in 1966. The early Colorsound/Marshall/Park fuzzes were made by the same guy!

There's two photos of Eric even. With Red Telecaster.
Wouldn't read to much into backline changes - they were often rented for outside UK gigs.

Best, Pete.

Check out the early-60's National amp in the first pic! Awesome!

Sadly, nobody but me probally saw that. =(
