"Shapes of Things" is a song by the English rock group the Yardbirds. With its Eastern-sounding, feedback-laden guitar solo and anti-war/pro-environmental lyrics, several music writers have identified it as the first popular psychedelic rock song. It is built on musical elements contributed by several group members in three different recording studios in the US and was the first Yardbirds' composition to become a record chart hit. When it was released as a single on 25 February 1966, the song reached number three in the UK and the top-ten in the US and Canada.
The song features Jeff Beck's musical use of feedback, which he learned to control by finding the guitar's resonant points and bending the strings. Music writers have called his work groundbreaking and cited its influence on Paul McCartney and Jimi Hendrix. Several live Yardbirds recordings with Beck and later with Jimmy Page have been released.
In 1968, Beck reworked it for the lead track on his debut album Truth. The new arrangement, along with other album tracks, has been described as a precursor of heavy metal. "Shapes of Things" is included in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's permanent exhibit of the "Songs That Shaped Rock and Roll" and several artists have recorded renditions of the song.

You are so right, Karen. We were so fortunate. Thanks again!
Absolutely!
@BeatlesGirlKaren... I would add the 1950's to your list Karen the birth of a new genre in music Rock N' Roll 😊
Gives me Chills!! 🥰 I’m in LOVE!! with the gorgeous lead singer Keith Relf, and his masculine voice.
What a GREAT song!
The YarDBirds straight up ROCK!!
Incredible footage thanks for posting
My pleasure
Just an incredibly great song from this fantastic band - hearing it makes me decades younger😄👍! Many thanks Sammy, have a top Saturday! Cheers, E.H.
I agree, E.H. Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend. Cheers.
😂Memories the Yardbirds loved them!!! Loved the.music back then, such talented groups. ❤🎤🎶🎸🎶☺
Loved this! Especially, young Jimmy!
Very cool, but…. When he does the Guitar solo, the editing showcased everybody BUT him! 👉🤪👈. This is not the first time I’ve seen this happen on ‘60s TV performances by various Bands, I don’t know what the heck they had against Guitarists.
My dad introduced me to this song in the '70s. 50 years on and we still enjoy it together.
Timeless.💜
I love this music, and your quality is the best! Thanks for doing this, greatly appreciated.
My pleasure!
Great camera work, Page is playing the solo and they have the camera on Dreja and Relf...
Maybe they were hoping no one would notice Page instead of Beck is playing lead like on the recording .🤫
The live audio/footage of this (plus a few other numbers) is out there. Relf sounds 'refreshed'
New hearing, wowzers.. brilliant song and lyrics..
I love Yardbirds!!
Love this song. and the stereo mix sounds very good Sammy
If this was mid-1966 it’s interesting to see @0:25 that there’s quite a number of chaps in the outdoor crowd still wearing coat and tie. Don’t know if this was during the school or work week at a venue near that type of location, but within a few months I’m fairly certain most of them would be dressing as flower children and hipsters, particularly the Yardbirds fans. What a find! Thanks for an incredible piece of video.🧨
You're welcome!
This is an awesome Yardbirds tune!!!🥰👍David Bowie's group did an awesome version of this tune on his "PinUps" album too.🙂👍
Did he really? How cool! I love Bowie!! 😅
Great Yardbirds tune! Available live performance footage of the Yardbirds is very sparce. Chris Dreja is shown on bass, but Paul Samwell-Smith played bass on the recording. Jimmy Page is shown on guitar, but Jeff Beck played guitar on the recording.
Stereo mix sounds very good Sammy.
Thanks very much Jacob.
EXCELLENT!!
AWESOME...Always loved this song. Jimmy Page was just a baby, LOL...
Same here. Played the 45 over and over again.
Jeff Beck was their lead guitarist when they recorded all of their hits, including this one.
@@Luked0g440 OK -But Mr. Page is in this video...
@@johnathandavis3693 I know. I saw him. This is a video from probably 1967, after Beck had already left.
@@Luked0g440I’ve got a super duper crush on Jeff Beck, ❤ what a guitarist!!
👍👍👍👍
Was hoping to see Jeff plucking the lead solo but it was Jimmy instead.
What a rip-off !
The Yardbirds Mk2 indeed
