    I have rarely seen Relf look as bad as he does there. No?

    Paul Samwell-Smith looks like someone I probably went to school with. And I think Jeff Beck snuck away from his day job as resident assistant (or whatever they call them) at an English ‘public school’.

    Thanks for posting this. I miss the Yardbirds.

    Oh, they look vaguely odd each and every one, Cooper. Not quite sure what it is. Like animated waxworks. Or maybe just very very tired.

    I miss the Yardbirds, too.

    Mmmnh, no. Maybe not. Not really. Can’t imagine what they would look or sound like now. How might they have evolved? Having a hard time imagining.

    I was gonna post the famous “Train Kept A-Rollin’ ” sequence from Blow-Up (because it is so very very silly), but at the last instant, I switched.

    I finally watched, more or less (I was reading at the same time), Blow Up several days ago. Not bad at all, but masterpiece? Maybe if I’d paid more attention. I liked watching Beck mess with his guitar.

    Well, now, Sheila, there is that Birdland album from a few years ago which would give one some sense of where the Yardbirds might be now, though of course they are Relf-less.

    Relf-less.
