The Yardbirds - For Your Love (Shindig 1965)

[Stonerface47]

Music is like art. it doesnt have 2 be perfect. it just has 2 show urself. The problem with todays artists is there modern-day technology that perfects them. music is better being raw and missing a couple of notes makes it more real.

[turnuson2]

Cream

[tigerwoodsondxm]

Fear and Loathing BITCH

[thermonuclearwarfare]

if we only had modern recording technology and equipment in these days

[Stonerface47]

@thermonuclearwarfare technology ruined music.

[MassProducingHate]

@Stonerface47 Without technology this recording would have never been possible mr. pot smoking smart guy.

Gotta back thermo on this one. The sound quality COULD be better.

[Fyneparent22]

@MassProducingHate LOL! Love that requite!

[46razzledazzle]

One of the best rock songs ever recorded.

[wilfmo1]

Da war ich gerade in Spanien Castel de Fels mit meiner Urlaubsliebe aus der Jugendgruppe

und viel Liebe am Strand

[mielazul]

Check "Rosetta West - Happenings..." for an interesting cover of the Yardbirds classic.

[bijnar]

I'm discovering this song 46 years after it was made and it blows me out of my shoes !

[211FairyTale]

timeless! if no one had ever heard this song, it could easily be a new hit today. Bongos and shades -- also timeless and sooo cool :)

[coltonwithano]

makes me think of fear and loathing

[nikosnotiathina]

just reminds me a vinyl disc that once was bought by reletivs in 1975...from an american sale in glyfada greece....

[drorbenami]

looks like brad pitt....

[terrinakamura]

Awesome!

[Abigail13406]

erm....these are the Yardbirds. But kudos for Cream too.

[harreeny]

Jeff Beck & Jimmy Page on guitars??.. Keith Relf singin??  WTF is all this Cream talk about? ..Unless one of them was filming the video...quite sad really

[hellenam]

I wish crabs to those 9 that pressed dislike button. and tinnitus

[FeverForDaFunk]

Anyone else think the lead singer looks like Johnny Depp in "Blow", when he moves out to California?

[divisorplot]

kid roc for your l'oueff ! roc simurgh ratite 4your love thats an order! tertramorph 4 your love!ok just a suggestion 4 your love!

[TheXxbrolyx]

probably the greatest video ive ever seen. icant belive i missed those days

[jenwasverydrunk]

These guys were moody deep

[357HFC]

The bloke on the twelve string could be a great guitarist, maybe even great musician.

[hypnosis121]

Such a great sound!

[rick00770]

clapton had just quit, after this was put out, beck was hired.

[Connnnnnnny]

I may have conceived a few illegitimate children to this song. As a kid I was way into the Yardbirds, The Animals, The Kinks The Troggs, and many others from the grungier side of The British Invasion. Clapton, Beck or Page, the Yardbirds were stacked @ guitar

[miki4088pen]

i wanna concieve my future illegitamate children to this song

[KongolianTexasPeach]

damn.. this song is cool as hell. lovin tha beat.

[qvocarlos]

Sorry Matty, I wasn't referring to this video. Yes, I know that Jeff Beck is on guitar. I was just flashing back on Eric and when I met him with Cream. Youtube has brought back so many memories!

[brianallancobb]

Jeff Beck.

[Muti330]

it doesn't seem live

[jeromeemil]

This is classic this the beginning of the change in music. Roll n Roll is growing up.

[11vec]

wow more magic from the vault of the 60's great vintage music peter s

[mcjayc100]

The essence of cool: KEITH RELF WEARING SUNGLASSES.

The Yardbirds on 'SHINDIG': PRICELESS............... LEGENDARY!!!!

[divisorplot]

Wow, biology synchro lyrics Dr Lyall! Phd phasers on stun.

[m1kewithaone]

it's only 1965 and already they were more sophisticated and classier than most other bands.

[securitycat11]

Damn that looks like Daved B

[MrPedantic45]

El cantante se llamo Keith Relf. He unfortunately was killed on stage years later by electrocution.

[MrPedantic45]

Gee, Jeff Beck looks like he's about 15.

[erik6671]

como se llama el cantante?

[MrRonnieG]

Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page all made a stop with the Yardbirds.

[martinbcrane]

I like the song, but Keith Relf (lead singer) was a dick for wearing sunglasses indoors.

[mcjayc100]

@martinbcrane No, he was COOL wearing the sunglasses..... Come on, it was 1965, when Rock & Roll

was dangerous & THE REVOLUTION WAS TELEVISED & SWINGIN'!!!! The Yardbirds were a revelation along

with every other band in the 60's.(BEATLES,STONES,KINKS,BYR­DS,DOORS.ETC.)

[gtwizard99]

@martinbcrane Why so ?????? If you weren't there for the 60's you would never understand anyway... I was there, cut my first licks off Beatles, Yardbirds etc.

[maessj98]

great music.

[UrlsGrrl54]

Depending on which part of 1965 this performance was recorded, I was either rocking this in the womb or when I just got out of it, LMFAO!!

[largermonster]

@UrlsGrrl54 and me.lol

[UrlsGrrl54]

[guitarshredder109]

Thank god for you tube .

[auldsk8r]

Cool sunglasses for a cool song!

[toycollector10]

I smoked my first cigarette to this song...I quit 40 years later. Man, this take me back.

[RubHerSoul1]

@toycollector10 But you didn't quit this song, didja? Wise choice, i must say.

[margretdupont1]

Fondest memories growing up with this GROOVY music! Does my old heart good!

[summermusic67]

This is not live.

[GEREEF]

Great song I L O V E I T ! ! ! !

[idcraw]

Check out Jeff Beck  those where the days

[MrJeff1947]

I saw em live performing this tune at Mt Shasta in 1966.

Pretty amazing stuff for the time!

[alonenjersey]

@MrJeff1947  Oh how I envy you. I'm curious as to who was playing lead guitar, Beck and/or Page?

[susieQ128]

Jefferson Airplane, The Troggs, the Animals, the Beach Boys, the Hollies, the Dave Clark Five, the Zombies,Yardbirds... they were the best of all time. My son only listens to 60s rock music. When he was growing up (he's now 29) he and I listened to it all the time so it's always been his choice for great rock!!

[qvocarlos]

I am very grateful to have had the honor to have met Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, and Ginger Baker in 68 when they played with the Cream. I'll never forget when Eric came to the front of the stage, when the concert was over, and asked, "Aw theaw any musicians heah?" I quickly raised my hand, and he gave me his guitar pick and cord. Ginger Baker gave his drum sticks to our drummer.

[mussman717word]

@qvocarlos

Holy shit, that's awesome.

[MrMattyHaze]

@qvocarlos Very cool! BUT - thats Not Clapton in this video: Its Jeff Beck.

[mahavishnuxc]

@qvocarlos

WOW..... I discovered Cream while I was in high school. Theyre one of my favorite bands and they introduced me to blues music and psychedelia. I didn't know what a guitar was until I heard "Crossroads". Jack Bruce's mastery of the bass mad eme want to pick up the bass. My band at the time was into punk rock but after Cream, along with other 60's greats, I turned them into Psychedelia. I'm 20 now, and still obsessed with Psychedelia and the swinging 60's.

[qvocarlos]

@mahavishnuxc Keep it going young musician! It doesn't matter what style of music we play, it's the universal language and we are a huge community. We reach the entire world with music. John Lennon was very astute as to knowing that The Beatles controlled the youth of the planet. He was preaching peace and love, only to get gunned down by an assassin's bullets.

[mahavishnuxc]

@qvocarlos Yeah man, i'll try. It was real shame when Lennon died back in 1980, well Bon Scott from AC/DC and John Bonham of Zeppelin died the same year but from alcohol intoxications. But their music lives on and had touched millions and millions of hearts and forever will!

[AnnetteAiko1]

FOR YOUR LOVE..........

[Dukeoftruth]

tight band.

[Jebbi1956]

I love me some Jeff Beck!!!!

[hansenda8184]

Nice!!!!!

[ratherfam]

Keith's (R) Hair? here-equal to Brian Jones a 10 and girls..wasn't he hot in his prime!

[erwinruys]

@MrDumbasshitler Keith Relf 

[PRESSRAT]

That's Jeff Beck on the twelve string

[puseye]

Their influence can't be overstated. Cream, Led Zeppelin and Heavy Metal in general would have been inconceivable without them. Nuff said!

[m1kewithaone]

@puseye i like you too, lets talk im miketooke on facebook

[waakman]

Correction, this was after Clapton. Jimmy Page came into the band while Jeff Beck was there. Page went on to form the New Yardbirds, which was essentially Led Zeppelin with the name changed in '68.

[waakman]

Jeff Beck. Don't know if this was before or after Clapton, but definitely before Page,

[Mountainfacehead]

Was this Clapton? Or after him? I'm pretty sure he left this year, yes?

[rebbeccanne]

does anyon e know what year this came out '64?or '65

[davesdawgs]

Fine 60's classic. Thank you.

[momike99]

Ddnt Kieth Rolfs slip and drown in his bathtub?

[johnnyscouser]

@momike99 No, He was electrocuted whilst recording with an improperly grounded electric guitar. Sad.

[m1kewithaone]

@johnnyscouser who got electrocuted??

[johnnyscouser]

@m1kewithaone Lead singer here

[M4rkpj]

Thanks for posting this freshh☻☺☻☺

[london2z]

These guys were the epitome of cool. Awesome. Loved it then, and still do.

[saleasylum]

Who's that doof on bass? Looks like Jimmy Page to me....

[subfusion01]

Grüße Fräulein, Sturm-Verbot-Führer, aren' T, what he pressups with burning or something of of the skin;

[TheStatue1]

too bad it's not live, still very groovy.

[onceuponamidnightdry]

Actually it is a harpsichord at the intro, not a "ringing guitar".

Great tune from one of rock's greatest bands!!

[TheDonnaPatrol]

wow, blast from the past. I loved this group. Owned all their albums. Beck looks majorly bored with that strumming.

[KilledCZ]

Classic :)

[saleasylum]

Page on bass? Beck on acoustic.

[onceuponamidnightdry]

@saleasylum That is Paul Samwell-Smith on on bass. He was their original bass player.

[ohmyohmy812]

@onceuponamidnightdry I'm glad you set the doof straight. Anyone who knows what J. Page looks like would have never made that comment. Page joined the band in mid 1966 when Paul S-Smith left. Chris Dreja moved over to bass and Jimmy and Beck played dueling guitars until Beck left at the end of 66.

[blueflamealley]

"6" people are lonely, unloved and have NO clue abiut GREAT music.

[razore008]

Snzzzzzzzzzzz!

[OL8Twho]

That's shy Jeff Beck @ 1:35 playing the 12 string guitar. That's what gave this song it's unique sound.

[riverboatsong]

@OL8Twho Actually no. Eric Clapton played on this song but Jeff Beck is featured on the front cover to the album. Eric left after this song because he felt The Yardbirds were becoming too pop oriented.

[OL8Twho]

@riverboatsong I know when and why Clapton left but it's still Jeff Beck in the video. Oh, and sorry, it was at 1:22 that you first see him. Man, he sure was young, I love seeing these old clips of the bands I used to listen to when I was 14. Oops, I guess I just revealed my age!

[llf49]

Lead singer John Denver? Nope. Eric Clapton was lead guitarist 1963/1965. This lead singer is Keith Relf.

[2proskaters]

The Yardbirds rule!

YEAH!!

[fullblowngenius]

OUTER SPACE!!!!!!!!!!!~E

[aldeb456]

Can anyone tell me when did the the shindig show com on? Was it from 1964 - 1967? All I know is it came on ABC for an hour!

[EenterE]

Awesome !

[uselessjoe]

Lead singer is John Denver before he went solo

[jonomutiny]

@uselessjoe Shut up cunt!

[rasx101]

@jonomutiny  Gee, what a ignorant $##!!

[rasx101]

@jonomutiny Don't show your ignorance with your profanity, in fact, your ignorance is directly proportional to your foul mouth

[jonomutiny]

@rasx101 Ignorant? Nope. Ask me anything about British music, I'll tell you facts, like "John Denver was not in The Yardbirds" And, I shall use profanity if I deem it necessary. In that case it was. And it is appropriate here also, so..................get dead, fuckpipe!!!!! Come on, bite.......

[KaptKan1]

@uselessjoe John Denver was with the Chad Mitchell Trio about this time, if I recall correctly.

[testodude]

Shindig was the shizz

[46razzledazzle]

I'm glad that I lived through the British Invasion of the sixties. I have very fond memories of the music from that era, The sixties' music for the most part was upbeat and happy. The Yardbirds were truly one of the greatest groups of all times.

[m1kewithaone]

@46razzledazzle i like you!! call me miketooke on facebook.

[ThisreallyIsBullshit]

@46razzledazzle lol

[mandobanjoguitar]

great song! this was in fear and loathing in las vegas.

[JeffW77]

Well, folks, we are seeing Yardbirds 2.0 with Jeff Beck and HEARING Yardbirds 1.9 with Eric Clapton. The main riff in what we hear is Brian Auger playing a harpsichord. EC takes a brief but sizzling electric guitar solo. Notice that the video does not show a guitarist playing the electric solo. EC was not happy to be "forced" to make pop hits, so he quit the Yardbirds and joined The Bluesbreakers. Great video. I remember SHINDIG--and Hullaballoo. Thank you to the poster.

[m1kewithaone]

@JeffW77 damn jeff youve got a great memory. were the bluesbreakers any good?

[JeffW77]

@m1kewithaone Yes, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers were very good. John Mayall was the great evangelist for the Blues in England. When he heard that the amazing guitarist EC had quit the 'Birds, he recuited him right away. B'breakers drummer was Hughie Flint, bassist John McVie (the Mac of Fleetwood Mac). A year of gigs, one GREAT studio record (the "Beano album") and a live album released years later. Jack Bruce was bassist for a while. Amazing definitive pioneer Brit blues band.

[m1kewithaone]

@m1kewithaone thanks for the come back! i will have to check them out because i recognize all the names you mentioned, all from the early '70s for me. and blues have always been my favorite. that's why zepplin one is my favorite. jimi hendrix etc.. you should check out "paris" "big town 2061" 1976. it consists of members from fleetwood mac, blue oyster cult, and jethro tull, and they were way ahead of there time! i dont know why such a great album was "cut out" but i just found it here on utube

[rbkpetroleo]

This is another good memory!!!! and Jeff Beck so young!!!

[MrJeff1947]

The weed is in the bongo's

Thats why is sounds so bitchin!

[clivegoodwill]

In those days - it was one Hit after another. Bands seemed to come up with Unique Compositions. So varied and different. Every week there seemed to be another batch of New Hits. All very catchy and instantly gulped down by us lucky ones. Even if you were not musical - you could still love them. Those were the days

[m1kewithaone]

@clivegoodwill so true, so isnt it hard to explain the managers who hold held out on us with the reasoning that the u.s. isnt ready for the beatles yet?? blah, blah, blah

[mudakoger]

;)))

[glaetze]

Jeff Beck. The coolest guy on the planet.

[purselady2]

EVER NOTICE ''ALL NICE WORDS BACK THEN IN THE SINGING''''

[purselady2]

@notseafood

ur prob right!

[purselady2]

IS he blind? why the glassess

[sinistertetsuo]

@purselady2 The sixties, 'nuff said.

[notseafood]

@purselady2 probably he is high!

[yummymummy100100]

The best tempo change ever! Love this song!

[DoctorDoubleX]

4 people don't have everything and more and that's for sure.

[Emmie949]

I am continuously amazed at the quantity of awesome music that came out of that short period in the 1960's, of which this song is one. Todays music can't begin to compare.

[clivegoodwill]

@Emmie949 - I hadn't seen your notice unyill I had put mine up - but we seem to agree

[LlamasWithAtaris]

These guys were a huge inspiration to many musicians. No true collection of great music should be without this song.

[airborne482]

The lead singer was Keith Relf . Tom Petty was a young pup in those days.

[crazyme1957]

tell me is that tom petty as the lead singer>

[gerardoloi]

Greats ! Hi Keith, see you later

[walksoftlynow]

At 10 I was atuned.

[johnpeelfeel]

I'd give the stars and the sun 'fore I live!

[folkmusicboy16]

in (((O STEREO! O))))

[crackmouth]

god these guys are amazing

[TL250Rider]

KLOS And the Sound Are Classic Rock

Los Angeles Oldies Radio Stations forget the 60's for some reason.

I feel Disco music is not Oldies but the Radio Stations think so.

KRLA was a Great Radio Station

Then in the early 80's KRLA got weird. ARt Laboe is a Genius He did mess KRLA

[TL250Rider]

A Great Wonderful Group Too bad Los Angeles Oldies Radio has forgotten this wonderful Group.

They became the New Yardbirds but thhat name went over like a Led Baloon

CBS Wake UP SAVE KRTH Don't KILL IT Like Art Laboe KILLED KRLA

[cornholio530]

@TL250Rider wat about klos?

[TheMustangsally75]

does anyone know how use a cumputer? If they do why is there only 208 posts for this song? Brain Dead I think!!! LOL

[Twinkle3067]

Gr8 tune from the 60's..............not anything like what filters out today what we call music!

[dahsuerk]

A great one!

[boliboy2299]

jeff beck is using an acoustic guitar with a pick up? is that the original sound in the record too?

[MalcolmO]

@boliboy2299 Yeah, Beck with an acoustic 12-string AND singing! I so wasn't expecting those! IMO, they lip-sync'd the record.

[SuperNevile]

@MalcolmO And with a suit and a tie. Interesting, the other clips of this shindig session have the live version and you can hear Beck playing the 12 string (rather than the harpsichord you have here on the record), This is the actual record backing this clip with harpsichord ~ but it says it's live ~ weird man!

[Freyja1133]

@Gyphia Hard Rock? I 'd  say Heavy metal,more than hard rock

[SelangorNight]

Possibly the greatest single ever released

[Freyja1133]

@SelangorNight heart full of soul was a better song

[SelangorNight]

@Freyja1133

Indeed another great song

Actually 'See Emily Play' by Floyd is probably my choice for best single

[CalgarySandy]

The single in England was by: The Yardbirds with Slow Hand Clapton. I was sent a copy from England when it came out. It had it's own centre built in rather than having to pop one in like in North America.

[GavinKavanagh]

Man this is a music! Rock 4ever!

[TheHelgeland]

yardbirds i will always be listening to. yust ......  fill in that word ! i cant find one good enough to describe them.

[KaptKan1]

That ringing guitar and bongo beat intro is unique, even by Yardbird standards. These guys were years ahead of most bands of that era in terms of creativity and daring.

[darthaapz]

@KaptKan1 right on :p

[soltisimba]

I love how serious Beck look playing the acoustic guitar (12-string?). I guess he is always mostly serious. NOt a showman, Mr. Beck

[conuregirl007]

I LOVE this song! Classic!

[G0IFI]

Eric Clapton left the band over this song, since it was a departure from the blues, and Jeff Beck came in to replace him. They were one damn fine band all the way through anyway. I was about 4 years old when this was coming out of my Mother's radio daily, but it's one of those you never ever forget.
