Ultimate!

Ultimate! is a 2001 compilation that surveys The Yardbirds' 1960s recordings, tracing their shift from blues-rooted rock and R&B toward more adventurous, psychedelic-tinged arrangements. The set highlights the group's mix of punchy singles, blues covers, and guitar-driven explorations, and illustrates the differing styles of Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page across the band's evolving lineups.
