Budget compilation combining one track from "Five Live Yardbirds" with eleven '45 cuts 1964-66, previously UK non-LP. Most of it had already been on collections or regular albums all over the world from the mid-sixties and on, but this was the first time in Britain. Better late than never and even though I had the songs already back then, through US LP:s and the Swedish Columbia compilation, I bought it anyway because it was UK and lots of good music for under 1£. Maybe budget, but this first press is still a high quality issue with thick vinyl, laminated flip/back cover and fine audio. Unfortunately it's all fake stereo and not even that at parts. For some of the tracks it seems they didn't even care to fake it good, just altering the volume between the channels making it very unbalanced. Others are as you'd expect a kind of enhanced mono. Very bad "stereo", but the compability top notch so if you press the mono button it's still enjoyable listening. If you're just after having the tracks on vinyl there are many better choices. Recommended to fanatic fans and completists only. (YÄB*)(JÄBÄ*)(SXS*)
