I saw the Yardbirds LIVE about 6 months earlier in LaPorte ,Indiana ,USA with Jimmy and Jeff Beck (R.I.P.). Jeff left the group after the U.S. Tour. I was taking a break during their gig at the National Guard Armory ,outside, when Pagey came out and asked me for a "stick", cigarette. I was smoking Kool menthols ,which he said were his favorite .Lent him a smoke and we chatted a while and then he went back inside to do another set. They were amazing and I could stand 6 feet from Pagey while he and Jeff did their dueling guitar work. Jeff got pissed at his guitar rig and slammed his guitar into his speaker cab. The dance only cost about $1.50 to get in and got our hand stamped . I have had an amazing life since and saw Pagey live with Zeppelin too ,in 1975 at Long Beach Arena, soon after my woman and I hitch hiked from here in north Indiana to southern California with 50 dollars, a suit case, and duffel bag. I am 74 today.. The Zeppelin tickets were only $10.50 each and they played for 3 hours and 20 minutes. It was Heaven and I got to hear early "Kashmir" since the album was released before the gig. Peace & Love. Rory in north Indiana , November, 2023.
Спасибо за комментарий!💙💛🇺🇦
Amazing. So sad how life has changed❤
Kool comment. Cool bands.
This Hammond kid appreciates your story!
You lucky bitch
Imagine being a teenager back then. The adults were wrong, the world was at your feet, & the music was downright miraculous.
I was…. It was so good. Yes, the adults blew it.
That guitarist is pretty good. He may make it big one day
True. But the singer is pretty bad.
I don't know. I think guitar bands were on their way out.

Jimmy is thinking: "I know a session guy who is great on bass, and a couple of guys from up north who sing and play drums in some band. I'm ready for a change. Maybe I'll invite the three of them over to my house boat at Pangbourne to routine some tunes and see what happens......."
Jimmy actually extended an invitation to Chris Dreja, the Yardbirds' bass player, to pay bass on the new band Jimmy was forming. Chris declined, saying he wanted to become a professional photographer. Jimmy then invited John Paul Jones to join, and Jonesy accepted. The photo on the back cover of Led Zeppelin I was taken by Dreja. The rest is history.
@@zoso73 Great back story!
Most rare film of them Ive ever seen .
Agreed! Raw Real!
Saw them at the Marquee same era - sound was pretty awful also
I saw this Band at a Roller Skating Rink in Orlando, Fl.
Jimmy Page blew all the guitarists in the audience away.
Great Show for $3.50.
They played Lori Wilson Park in Cocoa Beach that tour. Missed them!
Wow. Wonderful to see and hear Jimmy play with a Telecaster, with its unique sound characteristics, which Jeff Beck also used for a time.
He used that same Tele for Zep I and sporadically after that.
He used that same Tele for Zep I and sporadically after that.
Page used his Fender Dragon Telecaster on Zeppelin's debut
. This is that Telecaster before the dragon paint. Notice the reflective pick guard.
@@robertserafin-uc3qn
He also used it for the solo on Stairway to Heaven.
Finally an authentic live version of this song!
A bunch of songs here...
Which song?
And you actually think these are good vocals ?
@@crungefactory Authentic simply means authentic…
@@user-qm7nw7vd5s Ya, but which song?
Monitor systems in live performances back then were non existent. Very hard to sing in tune in the middle of those loud amps and drums when you can’t hear yourself.
@@vayabroder729
You're 100% on that, vayabroder...!
From a guitarist/historian's perspective, this is actually an incredible piece of footage. If I'm seeing right, JP is playing his legendary Telecaster that he would've acquired about a year before this performance from Jeff Beck. For those who don't know, this telecaster would go on to record the entirety of Zep I, as well as the timeless solo on "Stairway to Heaven". Jimmy heavily modified this guitar over the late 60's, as it appeared in multiple forms throughout his early career with the Yardbirds, and then subsequently in Led Zeppelin.
Based off the dates and appearances here, this concert would prove to be a transitional period for this guitar, as this would be post-circular reflective mirrors, but pre-dragon paint, plus it still retains its original white finish. The pick-guard looks to already have its reflective surface underneath it, clearly setting the stage for what would be more creative inspiration for JP to strip the finish and paint the dragon. Starting at 10:40 we get a wonderful close-up view of the guitar, reflective pick-guard, sans-mirrors.
Very few photos/videos exist of the mirrored-version of the guitar, I'm not sure I've ever seen photo/video evidence of the transitional era between mirrors and dragon artwork. This, to me, is quite profound. We're witnessing arguably the most legendary, recognizable guitar, in its creative embryonic stages, preparing itself to become one with music history. Hope I'm not the only one that recognizes this.
The legendary Telecaster is playing here was used on the 1st Led Zeppelin but then Jimmy lent it to someone who Fd it up by making modifications and its mojo was basically ruined. It was not used in Stairway to Heaven
It was used for the solo on Stairway.
One of his Roadies stripped off the old Dragon paint a few years ago and repainted it and put jewels all over it. Jim since had it repainted!
There it is! There he is!
Above all, just remember it is just a guitar and means more to Pagey than anyone else on earth. Wood, electronics, metal ,plastics , strings.Heh.
Historic....Vox, Ampeg, Tele (pre-mirrors), Gibson bass, raw, bad sound system, Keith appears to be hoarse, not singing lines, occasionally hitting notes fine, but not often enough...he only had one lung (operation when a teen), so must have been a tough one for him, but he was a trooper ....Page not loud enough, but enough to appreciate...McCarty cool on the skins...and they roll into a Dylan song....smile. This is a rock treasure...
The Tele is actually in it's post Mirror stage here. This configuration is the one he had for the shortest time. It went from all white with a white pickguard, to white with mirrors, to white with no mirrors and the reflective guard (as seen in this video) to the dragon paint job with the reflective pickguard.
Side note, I think page never sounded better than when he played the tele. I love Zeppelin and what he did once he got the Les Paul but his playing style changed and I always preferred his yardbirds era and pre April '69 tone and playing to anything else he did
YES INDEED 👉@@emilmaze
Yup, a work in progress. Mirrors on the Tele with the original white pick guard. Now the reflective pickguard which carried over to the "Dragon" paint on the stripped body.
@@emilmaze The last day Jimmy ever played his Dragon Tele was on May 2, 1969. It was at the Pasadena Rose Palace.
After that, one of the pickups went out and he put it aside for the Les Paul.
@@beatlesrgear The last time he's playing the tele on stage wasn't at the Rose Palace but at the Grande Ballroom on May 16th two weeks later
Sound engineers and monitors weren't good in those days. Keith couldn't hear himself .I love this video !
Same. I mix and I have mixed feelings. 🙂
Monitors , sound engineers? They came later.
The sound WAS right ! Mixed proper for the audience and MUCH better without the sniveling Relf trying to overpower the others who, at least in this performance, were much better musicians !
@markesquivel3437No
Then why are all these commenting idiots acting like they cant hear the HORRENDOUS vocals??
.
As a drummer in various bands in the 60s and 70s, I can attest to the fact that being able to hear was always a chore. It got better by the 70s.
Wasn't A Problem for BUDDY Rich & Gene Krupa
I know, monitors have come a long way. When monitors were bad or nonexistent, the rest of the band would center on the drummer to make sure we were at the right place in the song. And worst case if we couldn’t hear the drummer, we could see him and use that!
@@T.C.Clarien and that's the difference between acoustic instruments and amplified instruments.
@@soundpainter2590
What kinda invalid b.s. are you spouting?
Jazz guys who are real drummers didnt have a problem at the same exact time
Exactly..as I was saying above. People now a days just don't realize how far concert sound has advanced. Peace. They have no clue if they weren't there.. like we were.
Hadn't seen this one before. It's great.
Also, if anybody noticed in the video,
the drum set with the Los Bravos
logo on the bass drum cover.
My estimated guess that there was a double-header
concert featuring The yARdbiRds and Los Bravos
at this particular venue.
Los Bravos is best known with their 1966 hit, "Black Is Black".
Yes, Los Bravos had a hit out "Black is Black"...i want my baby back ,its grey its grey., since she went away...." I think.
Great tune!@@ballsyrocker
Man, you just took me for a ride on the wayback machine.
Jimmy even had that lean back then. Cool to see.
Une prestance sur scène qui le suit
I noticed that too
Fun to watch
In a way he had it back since he was 14 years old on TV playing skiffle. Guitar strap not as low, but same stance. His left leg was grooving, shaking and slightly leaning even back then.
Very good performance! That was a great time for music!
WOW, this is Holy Grail!
why are you commenting and acting like you cant hear the HORRENDOUS vocals??
Why is it relevant to you,@@AMEER-114- ? Go back to your GameBoy and come back once you've studied history.
@@garymillstein3677 Yes, it's awesome footage. If you want the studio version, get that, but this is raw and historic.
Fabuleuse époque que les années 60' en FRANCE ,j'ignorais totalement que les YARDBIRDS avaient fait un concert aux portes de PARIS, et filmé en plus par cette bonne vieille ORTF tant décrié par certains ! Merci pour cette vidéo .
Ils sont venus plusieurs fois. LZ à Bouton rouge. Yardbirds un CD live au festival de la jeunesse😂
J’avoue que j’ai plaisir à les voir avec Jimmy Page à la guitare.
Par contre, le son est pourri , par moment on entend trop la basse par rapport à la guitare.
Beaucoup de problèmes techniques , Keith se plaint que le son de sa voix n’est pas assez fort. Keith chante pas terrible (son du micro mal réglé ?) j’ai lu dans certains commentaires qu’il est bourré ce qui m’étonnerait qu’à moitié.
Il existe une vidéo tournée à Provins avec Beck à la guitare et Page à la basse.
@@patr942 Le son n'est pas terrible (Hélas) mais je suis quand même heureux de voir et d'entendre ça .Les Yardbirds groupe Anglais qui a eu une importance historique majeure sans avoir eu un immense succès commercial . Un groupe qui a eu dans son sein trois des plus grands guitaristes Anglais de l'époque ;faut le faire quand même .Ma formation préférée est celle avec l'imprévisible Jeff Beck à la guitare ...
If anybody's interested, here's a transcription/translation of everything that goes on after the PA troubles following the first song:
Relf: "One minute! Can you hear the group singing? Can you hear me singing?" then, in French, "non chante"--roughly, "no singing?". Then "engineer" with a French pronunciation (not *quite* "ingénieur", which is the right word)...
[Then hard-to-make-out banter between band members ("is it working all right?")...]
Relf: "Nous désirons, euh, un ingéneer."
[literally, "we desire an engineer"; "we would like an engineer"]
Guy (seems to be the host/presenter) speaking French, which I can't make out, then he says "What is your problem?"
Relf: "Uh, just like, the, voice is just not loud enough, y'know?"
Presenter: "Ah bon? Eh bien la mienne non plus d'ailleurs, vous pouvez monter, s'il vous plait? Non, il y a un problème, c'est que, il voudrait que sa voix soit un peu plus forte, hein?" [murmurs of appreciation from crowd] Vous êtes d'accord? Est-ce qu'il a raison? [crowd louder]
[Really? Well, mine isn't either, in fact; can you turn it up, please? No, there's a problem; it's that he'd like his voice to be a little stronger, eh? Do you agree? Is he right?]
Relf: "Yeah! Right, y'know."
Presenter: "Bon, vous nous aidez? Comme ça on va faire du bon travail."
[Right, you'll help us? That way, we'll do a good job.]
Relf: "So we'll wait till the, uh, establishment fixes a... new... PA sound."
Presenter: "Ben, voilà. ... Bon, s'il vous plait, un ingénieur du son, je ne sais pas, qu'il vienne régler la situation, parce que monsieur a des problèmes. Et je ne peux rien faire pour lui! Je me contenterai de traduire, si je peux. ... Personne? Qu'est-ce qu'on fait, dans ce cas-là? Moi, je peux vous réciter l'Iliade, l'Odyssée, qu'est-ce que vous voulez? Une fable de La Fontaine, par exemple. ... Ah, ça va se régler tout de suite. ... Ah oui, il a des problèmes, c'est difficile tout ça, la sonorisation. Il a des problèmes, parce que son amplificateur ronfle, et que sa voix n'est pas assez forte. ... Est-ce que ça va s'arranger? Je ne sais pas. Pierre Laozic[?], vous êtes là?
[Well, there you go. ... Right, a sound engineer, please, I dunno, to come fix the situation, because monsieur is having some problems. And I can't do anything for him! I'll just translate, if I can. ... Nobody? What do we do, in that case? I can recite the Iliad for you, the Odyssey; what would you like? One of La Fontaine's Fables, perhaps. ... Ah, it's going to be sorted straight away. ... Yeah, he's having problems. Sound engineering is hard. He's having problems, because his amplifier is "snoring" [buzzing] and his voice isn't loud enough. ... Is it going to be sorted? I don't know. Pierre Laozic[?], are you there?]
Relf: Uh, c'est non engineer, pas, y'know--
[Uh, it's not engineer, not, y'know--]
[tape cuts, then resumes with Train Kept A Rollin']
Clearly they were looking for Roger the engineer
I guess if you can't hear yourself you can't sing. Either that or Relf is fucked up.
Wonderful Recording of a great show The Yardbirds with the best guitarist of all time. Thanks !Super.!!👏👏👏🔥🔥🎸
Beck, Clapton, Hendrix. Are you sure?
And you actually think these are good vocals ?
Horrible live band !! Everything is out of tune

Zeppelin was originally going to be called 'The New Yardbirds' I think Led Zeppelin was the better choice! Terrible live sound!

@@paulwoodward6555Then why are all these commenting idiots acting like they cant hear the HORRENDOUS vocals??
@@f.w.2054They were called “The New Yardbirds” in the beginning. I think it was Pete Townsend who christened them Led Zeppelin, unintentionally, when he once famously and facetiously told Jimmy Page “You’re going to go over like a lead zeppelin”. Page loved the irony so much that he renamed the band accordingly.
Anyone wishing to know when Metal started should listen to this, the Jeff Beck Group, and the Jimi Hendrix Experience--it's all already right there.
...
Black Sabbath !!!
Blue Cheer.. earliest. Heh. "Summertime Blues".
@@ballsyrocker Master of Reality - первый метал альбом, а Black Sabbath - первая метал композиция! Blue Chееr, (при всём уважении) выше звучания чем Hard Rock не поднялись.

Jimmy Page The GREATEST Guitar Player OF ALL TIME! No Disrespect to others But No One is Better Period!
He is no Jeff Beck and HE knows it.
When I was 14 I thought the same. But even today yes he was a genius.
@@FYMASMD Jeff was the best by far! Not even close.
That's as raw as it gets. Thx MZ for the post.
oh man i love youtube...what a testament! thank you Mark Zep!
Great to see Page in action on the Vox 12 string.
Our guitarist had a Vox 12 string made in Italy in 1967. It actually had a soft snap on pad on the back to protect the chest while playing. Only time I saw such a thing. It was a bit heavier than a Fender, etc.
What an interesting piece of film. Very cool. Thanks!
YOU CAN HEAR SOME ZEPPELIN IN PAGE'S PLAYING.
They were starting to lapse into Led Zeppelin shame
Of course, Page's ideas and playing style would be there in whatever band he's played with. He wrote and performed an early version of Dazed and Confused with the Yardbirds, and led Zeppelin's original name was the New Yardbirds.
Keith should be singing "Mister you're a better SINGER than I" to literally anybody.
haha. So true. I can t stand listenin to him.
Pagey is not great on this either, if you're paying attention...
I think he may not have been able to hear himself. That can make it hard to sing in tune. The sound system doesn't seem very good
Jimmy sounds great, Keith is very drunk
He doesn't sound very good, but then I 'd hate to be judged for something I did for 1 hour, 858 years ago. Compared to everything going on around him, Page shines and they all know it, funny how they watch him solo : Awe. Needs more guitar solos.
one of the coolest things ever.
Rare footage of Page playing his Telecaster just before he painted it and also his Vox 12 string......!!
This was a show on 4/30/67. Yet I've seen live footage of the Yardbirds from 1/67 where jimmy Page had added the reflector stickers to that beautiful Telecaster.
Looking like Syd Barrett.
First time ever to see a Vox in Page arsenal. So awesome👏
Page kicking ass. Way ahead of his time for 1967.
And still behind Jeff Beck!
I'll take this over lip synch til I die
Autotune can F--- off.
Super group way before there time!!
The telecaster probably the quintessential country guitar of choice for many. When I think of a Tele I think of Page, Beck and Prince. oh and not forgeting Wilco.
I think of Page , Roy Buchanan, Keith Richards
@@PlayerToBeNamedLater1973 I nearly mentioned Roy . ah yes Keith.
@@paulwoodward6555 Roy sure got a beautiful tone out of that Tele. Keith's sound was unique because he used that open G tuning . I've heard that most of the guitar on the first 2 Led Zeppelin albums were this same Telecaster and that surprised me.
Not to belabor the point, but I think of James Burton and Steve Cropper.
@@rmick66 Having never seen James burton only heard I did not realise he was a Tele player.
Anyone interested, Keith is buried in Richmond, Surrey.
And three of the greatest guitarists all in one band!!!
Three best ever to walk this planet. Never ever be anyone better.thats a fact.
All the critiques are better than the original Yardbirds One of the best 60s bands ever No clip on tuners No modern monitors or engineers Just vibes heart groove soul and talent
just Keith Relf and his rawk n roll fantasy
Keith is often singing out of key and struggling to hit the right note. Is he drunk?
no, he just wasn't a singer, he was the friend of the manager, there are NO keith relf fans@@Unit8200-rl8ev
I absolutely LOVED Shapes Of Things. A great studio recording. Keith Relf in this live performance is unbelievably bad, but Jimmy’s guitar is all there. I get the impression Keith was just a pretty face. I can’t recall ever seeing him perform well.
Relf was a decent vocalist and frontman in the Clapton and Beck eras, but not only did he have respiratory issues throughout his life, but had a drinking problem at the end of the Yardbirds (1966-68). After the Yardbirds broke up in '68, his vocal work became much better with Renaissance.
fairs fair though… its 1967 and there are no fold back speakers on stage. he wouldn’t even be able to hear himself singing with all those Vox amps cranked
@@coldacre The impression I have is exactly that, Keith Relf wasn't hearing himself well, it's not possible
They could have greatly benefitted from modern tech, such as In-Ear-Monitors.
He is singing so off-key here.
I can hear why Page wanted another lead singer.
Relf was worn out after years of the same set and endless touring
@@garthkolbeck8674 *Didn't Keith Relf have serious health issues? IIRC, lung and breathing problems.*
@@VladDImpala yes, I think he basically had one good lung from a childhood illness
When Keith drank too much his voice went out. Also he was usually singing to get above the volume and that never sounds good
Page actually wanted Terry Reid, but settle for Robert Plant.
Train wreck kept a rolling all night long.
Thank god for Jimmy 🤘🤘🤘

You can have a guy doing a solo and every camera is fixed on everything and everyone but them lol! 😂🤣🎸😎
You can chalk that up to clueless, incompetent cameramen.
This is the great Yardbirds. Loved Keith doing Dylan "Most likely to Go Your Way" at the end. No guitar smashing is fine with me.
And you actually think these are good vocals ?
@@AMEER-114- No. Keith needs great studio production.
@@AMEER-114- They're good. It's live.
Wow...This is amazing just to see this Yardbirds video appearance surface after nearly 50 years...Like some of the sound quality of their live videos,it suffers from a bad mix...
This video is so cool!
Wow thanx- I've never seen this before. And it appears almost 60 years later!!! The 12 string guitar Pagey is using on " My Baby"- I recognized from " Jimmy Page Anthology" book 2020 ( UPDATE- ON PAGE 60. CALLED A VOX XII he used it on FIFTH AVENUES " Bells of Rhymney" session
What is that 12 string guitar? I've never noticed it before!
Mattlog..... It's a VOX XII 12 string
The camera editors seem to be a tad reluctant to show Jimmy playing. Not the first time I've noticed this from footage of this era. Still so glad to have this at all. Thanks for posting.
@alanosterman7130 *It seems, back then, lots of camera operators simply didn't know how to shoot a rock concert. The Bath Festival footage of Led Zeppelin is good, but no one recorded the music, they just filmed it. The Bath Festival clips are up here at YT.*
@@VladDImpala Yes, I think there are rumors that Jimmy Page (who just turned 80 yesterday), is working on the bath festival footage, and maybe syncing up the bootleg recording with the available footage, for a documentary. Hope so. Those camera men show too much of Bonzo's drumming, and then they cut to Robert's flashy boots too much. Then too much of the faces of the people watching them.
@@VladDImpala l often think some of them did not have a clue as to who was playing what,You often see a zoom in on a bass guitar when someone is playing the lead guitar solo on some of these 60,s concerts !
@@philipbrougham6360 *How true! I used to shoot concerts, so I know when and what to shoot. Concert photography, and filming concerts, is very much like sports photography, you have to know exactly what 'moment' is important to capture.*
@@VladDImpala l think now days it is much better and most people given the job of filming a concert would have some idea of who is playing which instrument and when to zoom in at the right time ..
Jimmy ❤
This has major vibe all over it..
👍👍
You can hear the experimentations jimmy loved the group and wanted to play this type of music
Although he starts a “bit off key”, Relf was a reeeally good frontman. Easy to see how Jimmy was already leading the band by this time. Great footage!
You beat me to it! REALLY off key.
Hopeless singer and laughable front man. Imagine the Yardies with a Stewart or Reid or Plant or Marrriot
Great Raw Footage. Priceless, Great to see 140 thousand views!!
It's a wonder that this film exists at all... the camraman shure didn't have an eye or ear for the real talent in the band. Though i do lke the video... ty for the upload !!!! ❤

don’t get me wrong, I love Keith Relf and I don’t want to gossip or spread misinformation, but from what I understand he may have been drunk at this performance.
there’s another upload on TH-cam of this performance and the comment section is full of people pointing out that he had a drinking problem back then and it was highly likely he had been drinking that day.
whether it’s true or not, he was a wonderfully talented musician and front man.

Been tripping on acid for days
Due to a rapid tolerance that builds up you can't "trip on acid for days", unless you take massive doses.
Oh come on next you'll tell us that rock and roll stars were drug users who had sex with women they weren't married to
so what, who doesn't get pissed when they go to France?
Keith Relf being drunk would not be a new thing. It was him being drunk and insulting the audience at a major university gig that prompted bassist/producer Paul Samwell-Smith to quit the band. Fortunately, Jeff Beck had invited his friend Jimmy Page to that gig, and Jimmy offered to take over bass duties.
Also, Relf was an asthmatic who had breathing problems. One can assume that treatment in the 60s wasn't what it is today (i.e., inhalers etc.), so it is very possible he self-medicated with non medicinal meds of the day.
Very nice.
Hear that harp try to compete with the wave of rock washing over the world.
Vocalist step aside.
way. cool. thanks
So it's obvious to me that Keith can't hear himself or something. He normally didn't sound that bad.
One of my favorite bands of all time and one of the most influential too!!
Page's Tele thru that Vox amp sounds awesome :) 🎸☕
Saw them at the Marquee in 64 - I can remember the floor was so sticky you couldn't dance even if you wanted to?!!!
That lead guitar player was way ahead of his time..❤
He was of his time and was in very good company as Jeff Beck,Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix,Mike Bloomfield and Randy California also were active during 1967.
Page was of his time. What seemed “ahead of his time” was mostly taken from Beck’s previous treatment of these songs, without Beck’s inimitable touch ~
~ Beck is STILL ahead of his time👌
On the one day when the weather was fine in Chaville, they could have paid for a sound engineer to give Page a chance to be heard over Keith. That's the story of Rock in France.🤣
No one had an inkling that Page would become a demi-god or all recordings would have gone very different, but they didn't have much to work with in '67.
I idolize jimmy page, but I would love to know how he plays that 12 string with a scarf over the strings and don't miss a beat.
Even then Page was a master showman 🤔👏👍
Wow man that singer on The Yardbirds the first song that wasn't very good singing and I'm not an expert It 😮 just surprises me.???
If you wave your arms all around, and make "interesting" gestures with your fingers, though, it makes your singing much better.
Wow… Now I remember ♥️♥️♥️♥️🎶🌺🎩🌹🦋
I know Page is playing Beck’s parts here, but nevertheless this was during the period when their styles were very similar. A couple years later they diverged stylistically for the rest of their lives.
Thanks man way cool❤😎🎵🎵
Love the french dude screaming for the sound engineer to come and make the PA louder.
une relic ,un collector .
If this was the height of " rock and roll" God help us, the drugs must have been FANTASTIC!
This is not the Keith Ralph we all knew and loved. He is obviously not himself in this clip
some goood shots of jimmy: 8:38, 12:54, 14:00, 16:50
Thanks Mark! 😜👍
Ahh the young Sorcerer Page!!
Not enough page! Why is there a camera behind some dudes heads blocking the solos?
Months after its release, rock bands were dressing like Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band.
I can only assume that Kieth Relf, couldn't hear the monitor.
He’s got balls at least he did it all the way through
Good thing Relf speaks French..”Le sound, es no good, Eh?”🤣😂
Shapes of things🤞🤞🤞
Wow, a 1960s Mod Fashion in Chaville, France 1967 a subculture that began in London and spread throughout Britain and around the world.
Live set…thanks 😊
Very cool bud!!
Its golden R & R history! Chris Dreja on lead vox I believe, was a bit shocked to hear him singing so non- melodic & monotone in Shapes of Things - & most of it, but now realize he probably couldnt hear himself at all,may not have had any on stage monitors at all...
Even for 1967, *_THAT_* PA system would give ANY band / band member justifiable reason to get REALLY Pissed Off..... 👉 💯 👍
i saw the yardbirds in san jose fairgrounds 1967
weird to have such a hopeless singer in those days.
I do hope that somewhere there is a better copy of this video as the audio is subpar but otherwise I'll take what I can get.The Yardbirds are a favorite band of mine.
People refer naively to as "audio quality"is actually digital post-processing - and pitch correction among other things. Basically cheating, In this performance Relfs voice would need a lot of work,
No proper p.a. mix and Relf is drunk or feeling the aftermath...
Feeling the aftermath of doing too much LSD
Wow! Kieth sounds out of it
At 9:17 Keith Relf breaks into another dimension...
He's probably been tripping on acid for days
@@user-cs6up8eq7ssounds drunk or downers, to me, but yes, he was a chronic LSD user at this time

Of course. But no Yardbirds, no Zeppelin.
So frustrating at the age of 12, digging the rhythm of this jam , & trying to explain it to an older high school rocker , trying to impress them. But the only part you know is the chorus, “ captain morrow will i be bolder…. “ and even though on the show ‘Combat’ the sgt was played by Vic morrow, & he wasn’t a captain.just some constant scenarios dancing in my personal psyche since the 60’s. You tube has made it possible for me to lay rest another confusion of childhood ,a medium of sorts.yeah
Love the Yardbirds for all the obvious reasons, BUT....this mix is unlistenable...
why are all these commenting idiots acting like they cant hear the HORRENDOUS vocals??
Welcome to live recording conditions/limitations of the 1960's! As a big-time fan of this era of music, live recordings from this decade are, by our current standards, usually MUCH worse than this, when it comes to electrically-amplified music (especially on TV, for some reason...) I personally do my best to accept these vintage live vids for what they are, and appreciate these rare glimpses into great bands for what they are; flawed but fascinating, especially this Jimmy Page era of the band.
Outdoor venues were especially hard to mic back then and the power and speakers for PAs and amps left much to be desired in the 1960s. You had to be there people .Today you are mostly spoiled.
It's a MESS considering the talent on stand the mix make them sound like amateurs
