As many of you know, Jimmy Page joined THE YARDBIRDS in 1966 as the new bass player. However, Page eventually became co-lead guitarist with Beck while rhythm guitarist Chris Dreja switched to bass.
During that short time, they recorded this absolutely amazing and innovative hit single "Happenings Ten Years Times Ago", with then session musician John Paul Jones playing bass. 🤠 How about that!!! 😃
It would peek at #30 on the Billboard Hot 100.
I was reawakened to this masterpiece this morning while I was doing some exercising, and I was listening to a wonderful internet radio show called Ultimate Oldies Countdown, counting down the Top 40 (that's right, 40) songs of a particular week. Highly enjoyable show hosted by Bob Mathers, who believe me is another Casey Kasem!
Anyway, the countdown I was listening to was for the week of Jan 7th, 1967. <===< It's a lot of fun. Please check it out if you're interested in listening to some excellent tunes, hosted by a great D.J.
I'll end this post with the words the legendary Casey used to close each American Top 40 Show, "Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars!" 😉
