I'll be getting this one--I Wish You Would was my favorite Yardbirds song, I've got it on a 45 in an attic somewhere (though now nothing to play it on :( ). (It's not I Wish I Would, as per #2.)

Edit: I also fear that #11 is a typo, unless it's not My Girl Sloopy but a different song altogether . . . (And if it is, it sounds really interesting. :D )

I think #10 is actually For Your Love, another possible typo?

Looks like a rehash of the 1991 "Yardbirds" documentary. It's too bad this DVD doesn't include any of the recently-surfaced Music Hall de France footage from 1966 (with Jimmy on bass).

Thanks for that. I thought there was something new attached to this release

Why something so important in music as the Yardbirds receives a rehash of the same VHS tape in the 1990's is totally all about the money. Why this releases does not have new footage, interviews, updates, hidden jewels, etc. is a crying shame.

Nothing like a Sloppy Sloopy,eh? Was Sloopy sloppy drunk?

For Your Love vs For Your Life? Freudian slip?

I've now noticed that #9 should be Happening Ten Years Time Ago. And #6 is Train Kept a-Rolling.

I'm pretty sure #4 is correct, though!

What would this world be without proofreaders and the grammar police?

Answer:Idgits!

I think I've run out of material now.

Mind you, I'm still laughing at My Girl Sloppy. :D

Yeah,me too but...........................

There is a lyric I believe that says:

Give me one chance and I'll sweep you away.

Hence Sloppy Sloopy? :D
