The Yardbirds were a 1962 British rock band, noted for spawning the careers of several of rock music's most famous guitarists, including Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page. Jeff Beck replaced Eric Clapton, who went on to the Bluesbreakers.
At the time, they were part of a new Yardbirds lineup that included Andy Mitchell on vocals and harmonica, Ben King on lead guitar, and David Smale on bass.
Lead by Jim McCarty, one of the original members who is still behind the drum kit, The Yardbirds maintain their original sound even with all the changes in members over the decades.
