RE: RE: Out of our Heads/Black n Blue/Yardbirds

On the Yardbirds poll I voted for Chris Dreja as the most under-rated. He was not a star member of the band although he was a solid rhythm guitarist who had the enviable role of playing along with three better-known lead players. Unlike many rhythm players, Dreja never played a second lead role or engaged in "weaving" a-la Keith & Brian. But his sense of time was impeccable, particularly with speed-rhythm and syncopated patterns. The instrumental breaks in "I'm a Man" is a prime example. Also noticed that drummer Jim McCarty wssn't included on the classic line-up list. The classic Yardbirds would provide a whole lot of excellent musicians to choose from in any poll, so that may have been easy to overlook!
