The Yardbirds are an English rock band, notable for starting the careers of three of rock's more famous guitarists: Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page, all of whom were in the top fifteen of Rolling Stones' 100 Top Guitarists list (Clapton as #4, Page as #9, and Beck as #14). A blues-based band whose sound evolved into early experimental rock, The Yardbirds proved to be a crucial link between British R&B and psychedelic rock. The group had a string of hits, including "For Your Love", "Over, Under, Sideways, Down" and "Heart Full of Soul". The Yardbirds were pioneers in almost every guitar innovation of the '60s: fuzz tone, feedback, distortion, backwards echo, improved amplification, etc. They were also one of the first rock bands to put an emphasis on complex lead guitar parts and experimentation.
