Okay, I just gave it a quick listen the other day and I think I've got the
basic bass line for the verses. I didn't listen to the whole thing, so this
is just a little snipet, but it'll get you started. The words I have no
clue to, so when you see BLAH BLAH BLAH, he's not actualy saying that, I
just didn't have time to figure them out. I'll post a more complete
verseion as soon as possible. Any comments or corrections much appreciated
to [email protected].
Thanks, and enjoy!

The Yardbirds are an English rock band that had a string of hits in the mid 1960s, including "For Your Love", "Over, Under, Sideways, Down" and "Heart Full of Soul". The group is notable for having started the careers of three of rock's most famous guitarists: Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page, all of whom were in the top fifteen of Rolling Stone's 100 Top Guitarists list (Clapton as #4, Page as #9, and Beck as #14). A blues-based band that broadened its range into pop and rock, The Yardbirds were pioneers in the guitar innovation of the '60s: fuzz tone, feedback, distortion, backwards echo, improved amplification, etc. The band's disintegration led to the formation of the rock band Led Zeppelin, by Jimmy Page in 1968.
