Sick at heart and lonely, deep in dark despair. Thinking one thought only where is she tell me where. And if she says to you she don't love me just give her my message tell her of my plea And I know if she had me back again well I would never make her sad. I've gotta heart full of soul. She's been gone such a long time longer than I can bear but if she says she wants me tell her that I'll be there And if she says to you she don't love me just give her my message tell her of my plea.
Ride into the sunset with this one (circa 1966). The "fuzzed-up" guitar makes this one King Tone! The vocals are truly righteous. Love the bongos too!
CAN someone please explain to me the very ending of london boulevard...after the credits? Does david thewlis's character shoot himself or shoot the police?
@sammybarnet That's what i thought but it sounds like he shoots himself then you hear like 3 or 4 more shots so maybe he shot at the cops then they shot him?
This tune always plays through my head when I'm riding my motorcycle. I've been riding since 1965 and this tune is my anthem for my two-wheeled life on earth. This tune and choppers por vida!
The Yardbirds were the heart and soul of the English blues movement going on in England at the time. So many legends came out of this group - Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and finally the great takeover from the man himself, Jimmy Page. JP renamed them the New Yardbirds who then went onto it's next incarnation - Led Zep!
@metalliczombie Yes, you are correct on that one - he definitely ripped off the black artists, but I didn't know about Beck - though i'm not surprised!
This is one of my most favorite songs of all times - like if I could listen to only handful of songs for the rest of my life this would be one of them - ditto - late 50's to late 60's - most awesome music of all times !! This song gives me chills - the "feel" is so awesome !!!
This tune is the...ULTIMATE..."Torch Bearing" song ever made...Every time I hear it I think of her...It drives me mad...what could've been...Yardbirds captured the "essence" of that sinking feeling when you finally realize that there aren't any "Do Overs" in this life...Over, under, sideways, down, wraps it up...It's all good
The ambiance that this genre of music evokes is like the surge of life you feel when walking through a flowery meadow in the early spring morning, high and full of a great breakfast.... this is probably why I do that with my mp3 player when possible. : )
I was a 15 y.o schoolboy and crazy over a certain girl when music like this was hitting the airwaves (via pirate radio). What a time it was, sooo fantastic! Rock on
He also did "No Milk Today", done by Herman's Hermits and "Bus Stop"- done by The Hollies. Oh, and he also did "Evil-hearted You"; also done by Yardbirds. I'd almost forgot about that one!
Yo, It was not Clapton on this cut in 1965.. Eric and Jeff Beck had already had their falling out.. even though the American album cover showed Eric, it was Jimmy Page on guitar with Jeff Beck on guitar with the "Fuzzbox".. Very Cool days.. There was soooo much music on the Radio in the 60's ..
@domino99b4u Clapton and Beck didn't have a "falling out". Clapton left the Yardbirds because he didn't like the direction the group was going musically. Beck replaced Clapton. It's true that the Yardbirds had most of thier good music in the Jeff Beck era. They were more of a Blues band when Clapton was there. But there was no riff between the two. It's in Clapton's book. Beck and Clapton remain good friends to this day and they often play together.
@ZntNkr Yep. Me too. Respect to Serge Pizzorno for adding it to the soundtrack. Kasabian's new album could be interesting. Reckoned to have Pink Floyd overtones.
i love music from any generation. There is some rare good music nowadays but its very hard to find because they aren't endorsed by the rip off recording companies
driedsabbath - U betcha, Long Live Rock 'n Roll...todays music is a long cry from what was released by the "good bands" in the 50's, 60's and 70's. I really feel bad for the kids now-a-days as they have to listen to all this "trash music"....really bad stuff! Now if they could only listen to the 50-70's R&R I think they would change their "tune"...no pun intended !
As I posted in another one of the Yardbirds videos, the music now-a-days is pure junk....really! Many thanks for posting this "nostalgic" recording. If the younger kids would listen to this music, they would know what we are talking about ! Long live rock 'n roll...
@tomk1tl You mean kids like my age? I totally agree, lol. And alos, I love it how you said Long Live Rock 'n' Roll and it makes me think of the song by Rainbow called Long Live Rock 'n' Roll, haha.
This is the one that did it for me way back in the sixties. I Liked beat music like the Searchers, Rockin Berries ect but when I heard Jeff Beck on this one it changed everything. The next step for me was Cream and Deep Purple. Onwards and upwards so to speak.
They said in those days that kieth relfs voice was out of tune.If that classic voice is out of tune then the singers in todays charts'' are way out of tunE''. REST IN PEACE 'THE BRILLIANT KEITH RELF

@Socksinbed I was born in 1968. My uncles kept playing all these great sixties classic songs as I was growing up. And now I have all these great records.
@military911search first i read the comment above from rumputuski and busted up laughing.. now you got me laughing on your comment/your little dog wanting to dance with you to the yardbirds!
listening to this on acid was one of the most mind-blowingly ecstatic, spiritually fulfilling and joyous moments of my life. the music from the 60s can never be topped, it's just so fucking amazingly good
To God in heaven where my Cindy L Schmidt is. She's been gone such a ling time, longer than I can Bare. But if says she loves me, tell her that I'll be there, and if she says to you, She don"t love me, Just give her my message, tell her of my plea. And I know, well if she had me back again, Well I'll never make her sad, I've got A Hearrrrrrrrrt Full Of Soul. Thank You LORD.
Thank you Rose for sharing this with me. Most of the youtubers were not even born when this came out!! Sixties , we thought those were the days! Ha! THESE are the days!! But that Era was certainly a wonderful one compared to now! I had fun growing up then as a boy. We could all meet at playground and by the end of the day, we were all best Chums! That hardly happens now. Sadly.
@military911search That is heart wrenching. Little ones left without. Without running water, a mother, father, grandpa, grandma, sister, brother. Without a warm roof and fire, food, pets. Without limbs, sight, and a restful night`s sleep for fear of being taken away from their loved ones. Yes, that is very very hard to think about, much less experience. They have to grow up too fast. What a way to have to cope.
@rumputuski thats funny! a yardbirds song turning into a topic on jews and palenstines! i needed to laugh thanks... people on these boards are a trip so intense!
When I play this song my shih tzu goes crazy, my nephew who plays this song laughs (we both laugh). I really should upload it to utube. Sounds insane but true!!!
Tinymoezzy- funny what U thought the lyrics said at that age--more that a few lyrics I've found I had a few words wrong!
"Heart Full Of Soul is so full of sincerity and emotion that his vocal captures--not 2 mention the harmonies, and the "classic" rock sound--this is one of those songs that stands the test of time--by the way--it's my favorite also, by far--such a shame they split so soon--I'm sure more grt music would have followed-with Beck & Page. Attaching song U may like-obscure song:)
I remember when i was about 6 in heard this in the car with my big brother driving me around and i started belting " SHE GOTTA HEART FULL OF STONES" and my brother way laughing went home told the family... been singing the wrong words till 5 years ago
@Tinymoezzy That's like my sister and I were little kids. When we used to listen to "Chapel of Love" We would sing it like: "We're going to the Jack o' Lantern!" LOL! It was a few years later when we realized we were singing it all wrong!
omg i got a CD with a whole bunch of songs from 1965...this is on it (my fav one), For Your Love is also on it, and Liar, Liae by the Castaways and thats like the only ones I like [other than The Beach Boys' Help Me Ronda and The Kinks' Tired of Waiting for You]
Chris Dreja states that the reason why they scrapped the idea of using a sitar was because him and the band thought it was too thin and weedy. He also said that Jeff Beck then went into a bathroom with his guitar and amp where he came up with this amazing sound.
This is the second version of the song. No sitar was used in this song. Jeff Beck used a regular guitar on this recording. The sitar version was used on the first recording of the song and it was never released.
Uh, no offense, but I think you mispelled the word "guitar," lol, I mean "sitar,".....I'm pretty sure there's no such instrument as a "sitar....."......LOL
they hired a professional sitar player to record the track, but they couldn't reproduce the sound on tour, so Jeff Beck used fuzztone and feedback to try and reproduce the sound of the sitar.
That is awesome.The sound on this song is amazing.This is one of the greatest sounding rock songs of all time.Music like this is not made anymore sadly.
Brian Jones did alot of sesion work but he was never a sesion guitarist like jimmy page, he started the stones so there was little, time for him to be a sesion guitarist.
Haha, bunch of old people not his page, commenting.:D
Just kidding, I only said this because i'm only 20 myself, and yes, I DO think the psychedelic rock spawned in the 60's and 70's (thus way before my time) simply slaughters most of the crap that is produced nowadays.
@cindrellasunshine Music at every point in history has been horrible and it's also been great. Through a closed mind, you've managed to perceive that the 60's were some kind of miraculous time. Simply not true.
@mrbunghole Your half right - It's just that the record co TV and radio is pushing much more of the bad onto kids these days. More of Elvis Costello's Radio Radio. Your right that there is good music out there - just harder to find - . More underground as we use to call it.
@drledsabbath dude the 50s and 60 are the best, beatles yardbirds with all its combinations ahha, led zeppelin in late 60s, ray charles, coltrane, clapton, sun ra arkestra, yes, the who, GNR a little later in the 80s, simon and garfunkel, alessi bros, i mean, ALL KINDS of music, ALL GENRES, i meaaan, is the soul of music !
In sitar version of this song was alright. Jeff Beck didn't play the sitar on the first recording of this song. The band hired some indian people to play the sitar. In the end it didn't trun out too well. So Jeff created this amazing sound on the second recording.
So it is Sitar that I hear after the chorus.I always wondered how they got the amazing sound on this song.I thought it was a guitar or studio trick.The use of exotic instuments makes it cooler.
Discovered this song on WZLX 100.7 in Boston in the fall of 1985 in one of the memorable times of my life.Disovered alot of music in 1985 that I still enjoy to this day.The Box of Frogs also did a version of this song to.
Great song.I also love the version where Jeff Beck plays the sitar,although on that occasion he does not include a riff in this number.Nevertheless both are great!
I quite agree my friend...I can still conjure up the shivers the first riffs give me...shame I wasn't a teenager already in the time of this record, I was born in 1968...I still love this and other sixties rock!!
At high school in the 1980s, I was once threatened with expulsion for always singing this loudly through the corridors!

i think what happened was the indian guy that they brought in to play the sitar part couldn't play in 4/4 time so jeff just played it on the guitar

This is the second version of the song. No sitar was used in this song. Jeff Beck used a regular guitar on this recording. The sitar version was used on the first recording of the song and it was never released.

Maybe Brian Jones played the sitar on the yardbirds,Brian was a studio musician like Jimmy Page.

Uh, no offense, but I think you mispelled the word "guitar," lol, I mean "sitar,".....I'm pretty sure there's no such instrument as a "sitar....."......LOL

they hired a professional sitar player to record the track, but they couldn't reproduce the sound on tour, so Jeff Beck used fuzztone and feedback to try and reproduce the sound of the sitar.

That is awesome.The sound on this song is amazing.This is one of the greatest sounding rock songs of all time.Music like this is not made anymore sadly.

Brian Jones did alot of sesion work but he was never a sesion guitarist like jimmy page, he started the stones so there was little, time for him to be a sesion guitarist.

Just kidding, I only said this because i'm only 20 myself, and yes, I DO think the psychedelic rock spawned in the 60's and 70's (thus way before my time) simply slaughters most of the crap that is produced nowadays.
Timeless!

@cindrellasunshine Music at every point in history has been horrible and it's also been great. Through a closed mind, you've managed to perceive that the 60's were some kind of miraculous time. Simply not true.

@mrbunghole Your half right - It's just that the record co TV and radio is pushing much more of the bad onto kids these days. More of Elvis Costello's Radio Radio. Your right that there is good music out there - just harder to find - . More underground as we use to call it.

In sitar version of this song was alright. Jeff Beck didn't play the sitar on the first recording of this song. The band hired some indian people to play the sitar. In the end it didn't trun out too well. So Jeff created this amazing sound on the second recording.

So it is Sitar that I hear after the chorus.I always wondered how they got the amazing sound on this song.I thought it was a guitar or studio trick.The use of exotic instuments makes it cooler.

Discovered this song on WZLX 100.7 in Boston in the fall of 1985 in one of the memorable times of my life.Disovered alot of music in 1985 that I still enjoy to this day.The Box of Frogs also did a version of this song to.
