The Yardbirds are an English rock band, formed in London in 1963. The band’s core lineup featured vocalist and harmonica player Keith Relf, drummer Jim McCarty, rhythm guitarist/bassist Chris Dreja, and bassist/producer Paul Samwell-Smith. The band is known for starting the careers of three of rock’s most famous guitarists, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, and Jeff Beck, all of whom ranked in the top five of Rolling Stone magazine’s list of 100 greatest guitarists. The band had a string of hits throughout the mid-1960s, including “For Your Love”, “Heart Full of Soul”, “Shapes of Things” and “Over Under Sideways Down”.
From Sacramento California, Here Is Some Of The Finest Late 60’s AM Radio Pop By The “Spiral Staircase”. Originally A #12 Hit Single Recorded For Columbia Records In 1969…..This Featured Version Is From A Re-Issue On The “Solid Rock” Label That I Think Delivers A Better Overall Sound Quality Than The Original Pressing. The Original Was A Bit “Muddy” Sounding While The Re-Issue Has Better Mids, Highs & Presence…….I misspelled “Staircase” as “Staircase” in the video’s closing title. Oops! Hear this great song on internet radio kvkvi.com

The Mindbenders were an English beat group from Manchester, England. Originally the backing group for Wayne Fontana, they were one of several acts that were successful in the mid-1960s British Invasion of the US charts, achieving major chart hits with “The Game of Love” (a number-one single with Fontana) in 1965 and “A Groovy Kind of Love” in 1966.
Wayne Fontana founded the band in June 1963 with Bob Lang, Ric Rothwell, and Eric Stewart. The name of the group was inspired by the title of a 1963 UK feature film, starring the British actor Dirk Bogarde, called The Mind Benders. Before that Fontana had a group called Wayne Fontana and the Jets (from July 1962). Wayne Fontana & the Mindbenders released a number of singles before recording “Um, Um, Um, Um, Um, Um” in 1964, which was to be their first major hit in Britain and led to a tour with Brenda Lee. They also had a No.1 hit in the United States with “The Game of Love” in 1965 (which also reached No.2 on the UK singles chart). The band’s self-titled album reached No. 18 in the UK.
After a tour of America and some more singles that were less successful than “The Game of Love”, Fontana left the band in the middle of a concert in 1965. The Mindbenders decided to carry on as a trio—Stewart was the primary lead singer and guitarist, Lang played bass, and Rothwell was the drummer. Both Lang and Rothwell sang backing vocals, and took the occasional lead vocal on album tracks.
In 1979, One Of The Most Beautiful Love Songs Ever Performed By The Group “America” was never Released In The USA As A Single! What Was The Record Company Thinking? “All MY Life” Was A Smash Hit In Many Parts Of The World, Especially In The Philippines And Other Parts Of Asia. Give A Listen To This Superbly Crafted Love Song Produced By George Martin from The LP “Silent Letter” By America. Hear it on internet radio kvkvi.com
