Roger the Engineer [Import]

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
England's Yardbirds were often overlooked in favor of other bands during the heyday of the British Invasion, but their legacy has loomed large for decades after their demise. After all, they fostered the careers of Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page, and bands such as Renaissance, Cream, Led Zeppelin, Blind Faith, and the Jeff Beck Group. After cutting their teeth as faithful, if energetic, blues revivalists on live albums and a handful of singles, they cut this, their first real studio album, in 1966. Taking their cue from previous singles like the Gregorian-influenced "Still I'm Sad" and the future-shocker "Shapes of Things," the 'Birds produced what remains one of blues-rock's most progressive and distinctive albums--and one that, remarkably, was never initially released in the U.S. in its original form. Veering sharply from Beck's classic riffing on the rollicking "Over Under Sideways Down," the band explores broad palettes of style and hue, be it the more traditional blues of "Lost Woman," neomedieval turns ("Ever Since the World Began," "Turn Into Earth"), strange psychedelia ("Hot House of Omagarashid"), or showcases for Beck's playful, pioneering fret work ("Jeff's Boogie"). As an added bonus, the CD includes both sides of the band's sonically apocalyptic single "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago"/"Psycho Daisies" (with the rare twin-lead guitar lineup of Beck and Jimmy Page) and a handful of extremely rare solo tracks vocalist Keith Relf cut during the same period. An album as enjoyable as it is historically influential. --Jerry McCulley

Yardbirds '66: Over Under Sideways Down.......2007-04-12

"Roger The Engineer" is the second album's worth of material recorded by the Yardbirds' second (and best) incarnation, which lasted from March 1965, when Jeff Beck replaced "blues purist" Eric Clapton, until October 1966 when Beck left suddenly. (Jimmy Page joined this lineup around June 1966, first as bass player and later - briefly - as co-lead guitarist with Beck). Musically the Y'birds made tremendous strides during this year-and-a-half, and reached their commercial peak with innovative hit singles such as "Heart Full Of Soul", "Shapes Of Things", "I'm A Man" and "Over Under Sideways Down" - the last was also the title of the original, truncated (10 tracks) US edition of "Roger" released by Epic back in 1966. The Yardbirds always had impressive chops, of course, but were still relying on outside songwriting help (Graham Gouldman, Mike Hugg, etc) until a decision was made to create an entirely self-contained effort, and "Roger" was their first and only album of all original material.
The resulting effort was an exciting and eclectic collection, and the band's finest album, highlighting the group's many strengths (sheer musical facility coupled with a willingness to experiment, the cohesion and self-awareness that comes with time spent as a working unit, and a capacity for pure visceral excitement) as well revealing those weaknesses that prevented the band from ever becoming a major "album band" in the US (inconsistency and lack of first rate songwriting talent on the order of Jagger/Richards, Lennon/McCartney, Ray Davies, Townshend, etc.) So, this album zips along quickly and quite enjoyably, with some hot blues pastiches, some solid, catchy, and witty rock/pop gems ("Rack My Mind", "He's Always There", and "Over Under Sideways Down") that are as inventive in terms of arrangement and production as they are brilliantly performed. On the other hand, we get the occasional campy moments of proto-Goth, an OK-but-hardly-essential Beck guitar feature, and a couple of merely mediocre tracks. Nevertheless, blast this loud and you can't help but feel that rush, the pure pleasure of a real band at the peak of its powers, as well as be impressed, knowing these guys spent roughly a week in the studio to craft the whole album. This midline priced 1997 Warner Archives edition includes the 10 songs from the American vinyl, plus the two that were spliced out, so we have the UK track lineup complete plus two spectacular bonus tracks, both featuring Page along with Beck: "Psycho Daisies" - with a sardonic vocal by Beck, it's a two minute jolt of fleet, pounding rock 'n' roll - and "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago", perhaps the most accomplished recording this band made, a hallucinatory, surreal sound collage amidst truly ferocious high-energy rock and roll (I mean, The Stooges stole that amazing main riff!) that still evokes the violence and dread of the '60s and will have any fan of great rock 'n' roll still sentient (such as my dog) jumping and dancing around the room. These two tracks are easily the equal of anything Led Zep created. Also exemplary, by the way, is Ted Jansen's remastering, which is spectacular. Of the fourteen tracks, all are in stereo except for "Daisies" and "Happenings", and, wisely, "House of Omagarashid". Unless you want both mono and stereo editions of the entire album, or Keith Relf's less than essential solo singles, this is the edition to own.

Must Have.......2007-02-10

This album is a must have everyone should own a copy of this amazing album. This CD is the begging of rock and roll. It is the greatest jazz album ever to have been written. Jeff Beck fans must own. Jimmy Page, and Led zeppelin fans must own. No doubt about it is the best Yardbirds album.

A GREAT record!.......2006-04-08

The Yardbirds were a fantastic band during all phases of their career. They are noted for having arguably the three greatest rock guitarist (Clapton, Beck, & Page) pass through their ranks and while this produced some great music, it also caused problems. Their first albums featured a Clapton and the blues vs. Beck and his experimentations dicotomy. Their last record featured the transition from Beck to Page and hard rock. This record is all Jeff and his fantastic, experimental guitar style. Every song on this record has his stamp on it, even "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" which has Page playing a second lead. "Lost Woman", "Over, Under, Sideways, Down", "Jeff's Boogie", etc. are all terrific. This recording is always with me on road trips and just listening to what Beck can do on the guitar helps make the trip easier. I love Clapton and his blues and I love Page and his hard rock but in my opinion, Jeff Beck is the best rock guitarist of them all. No one has challenged him yet.

Pretty cool.......2005-09-06

This is a pretty cool 60's rock album. A forgotten classic. Jeff Beck is one of the finest british rock guitarists of all-time, and on this album, he just shines, especially on "The Nazz Are Blue", on which he has the perfect tone. It's a diverse album, sometimes drifting on pure british blues, sometimes on psychedelia, simple british pop-rock with cool vocal harmonics, or plain hard rock, like "Psycho Daisies" which features Jeff Beck AND Jimmy Page. It's a great classic rock album, for those who have great taste not only in rock, but simply in music.

This album rocks.......2005-01-29

I must say that this album is one of rock's defining recordings. Known as "Over Under Sideways Down" in the U.S. Contains great blues styles as well as very psycadelic tunes. The track Over Under... Has a great opening riff,Jeff Beck is on fire throughout! "Jeff's Boogie" is surely an ass kicker. Rythym section is awesome and Keith Relf's vocals and harp are top notch playing. Truly one of the first Psychadelic bands. This a must for any collector!

Mono and Stereo "Yardbirds".......2005-09-30

Officially called simply The Yardbirds, this album came to be known as Roger The Engineer as that was the name of the front-cover caricature of their engineer Roger Cameron by Chris Dreja, written on the sleeve. It was their first studio album although an earlier incarnation of the band with Eric Clapton had released a live blues album, Five Live Yardbirds, and in America Epic had capitalized on the success of their final single with Clapton, For Your Love, by collecting all their UK Columbia singles to date and an EP in the pipeline, and added a couple of unreleased items for an album also named For Your Love.
Jeff Beck was not a blues purist and steered the band into fresh and exciting musical areas over the next few hit singles, incorporating Gregorian chants, sitar-like psychedelic guitar, backward tapes and controlled feedback.
Only the most recent of these, Over Under Sideways Down, which was created in the studios out of a spontaneous jam around Rock Around The Clock, and its instrumental flip, the self-explanatory instrumental Jeff's Boogie, were included on the album, the rest of which was largely concocted from scratch at Advision in one brief week of recording.
Some of the ideas used on their singles are reworked here, with Keith Relf leading all the vocals with the exception of The Nazz Are Blue which features a rare early vocal from Jeff Beck and bursts into a well-known Elmore James riff in the middle. Todd Rundgren named his band The Nazz in 1967 as a tribute to this song.
Mono was the norm in those days, when few record-buyers had stereo hi-fi systems, so must of the time spent mixing the album was devoted to the mono version, with the stereo mix left to the end and recreated independently but with reference to the mono master. Inevitably, there would be subtle, and sometimes glaringly obvious differences. A guitar overdubbed directly onto the mastertape during mixdown is necessarily absent from the stereo version of Hot House Of Omagararshid, and there are similar anomalies on He's Always There, Turn To Stone and others. Nevertheless, the benefits of the wide stereo sound are clear, and this edition presents both mixes in full using the Yardbirds' own mastertapes.
Bonus tracks include the magnificent psychedelic single released three months later, Happenings Ten Years Time Ago/Psycho Daisies, by which time Paul Samwell-Smith had left and Jimmy Page had joined the band as second guitarist and occasional bass player, and two solo singles released by Keith Relf as a side project.

Overlooked classic album.......2004-09-12

As far as I'm concerned the real title of this album is 'The Yardbirds', and I have a very early LP to prove it.

At some point in the recent past someone has decided that this album needed a name as 'The Yardbirds' wasn't sufficient, and that because one of the figures on the cover has a caption 'Roger the Engineer' that would do.

Regardless of that, it is an overlooked classic and an important addition to any collection of music from the era. The other reviews are spot on. Buy it now.

A 1966 Milestone.......2004-06-03

"Over, Under, Sideways, Down" or "The Yardbirds" or "Roger the Engineer" was the Yardbirds` first real album released in 1966. They had released two albums in America in 1965 "For Your Love" and "Having a Rave Up", but they were merely a compilations of singles, EP`s , live-recordings or obscure recording which were included to fill up the albums to reach an acceptable playing-time.

For the first time they were given the opportunity to record a real album. The were not given unlimited studio-time; on the contrary; the album was recorded during a very short time-period; I believe it was about 2 weeks. This makes the result even more impressive. It`s no exaggeration to call this album one a the greatest of the mid-sixties. Very tight playing by everyone, impressive and innovative guitar-work from Jeff Beck, solid vocals and great songs.

In my opinion there is no doubt that it`s Jeff Beck who makes the difference. I love the sounds he can get out of his guitar. It`s not difficult to imagine who stunned people would we when listening to his guitar back in 66. The great mixture of traditional blues and the new psychedelic sounds has never been surpassed.

Even classic 12 bar blues tracks like "Lost Woman","Over, Under, Sideways, Down", "The Nazz Are Blue", "Rack My Mind", "Jeff`s Boogie" and "What Do You Want" sounded (sounds) new; and these recordings still sound uplifting and full of energy today.

On songs like "Ever Since The World Began", "Turn Into Earth", "Hot House" and "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" showed a purer progressive side of the band. In fact "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" was not originally included on the album, as it was recorded shortly after, at a time when Jimmy Page had also joined the group. "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" was released as a single with "Psycho Daisies" as the b-side. These two songs have been featured on most re-releases of the album, and can almost be considered as originals. The moving "Farewell" is a another favourite; makes you think of the sad destiny of Keith Relf who died electrocuted in 1976 by his own guitar while practising at his home.

Unfortunately this 2 lead-guitarist period would last very short, as Jeff Beck soon left. As far as I know, they only recorded 3 songs; with "Stroll On" from the movie "Blow Up" as the third.

The bonus tracks make the CD an even better buy. The Keith Relf solo tracks a all solid; in fact they are really the Yardbirds backing singer Relf. "Mr Zero" is not far from later Yardbirds recordings like "Little Soldier Boy".

If you`re even the least interested in the music that came out of the 1960`s this milestone is a must buy!

one of the best albums of the 60s.......1999-03-11

This album stands cheek by jowl with the Beatles "Revolver." From devastating psychedelia ("Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" with both Beck and Page on lead guitars) to Russian rock n roll ("Over, Under, Sideways, Down") to Gregorian chants ("Turn Into Earth"), this band could do it all. It's a shame that this is the only full length album the band was able to record in the studio. And they did it in less than a week. As fresh sounding today as when it was released (even though I wasn't even born yet!).

Product Description

THE REVOLUTION is a declaration to live in God's reality. The spiritual things, not the natural things, are the most real. What is real is unseen. What is real lies hidden deep within our heart. God created humankind for relationship with Him. Through sin and evil that relationship was destroyed and death invaded life. Since expulsion form the Garden of Eden, humans have tried to recapture what they had in the Garden: significance, peace, authority, life, and intimacy with God. Yet our man-made gardens only reveal insecurity and fear. Through Christ, God launched a revolution of grace and truth. God became known. The Word was revealed. Life overcame death. We accept the forgiveness of Christ yet still find ourselves living in the matrix of a self-made world filled with materialism, image, and power. We continue to build our gardens. THE REVOLUTION is an experience of worship, truth and action that leads you into an authentic position in Christ. It tears down your false gardens and builds a faith-filled genuine life in Christ. THE REVOLUTION opens your eyes to the reality of your suffering heart; to the reality of a suffering world; and to the healing power of Christ. There is a God who calls us His beloved. There is a world, suffering and dying, that God want sot love through you. LET THE REVOLUTION BEGIN... We have been called to HEAL wounds, to UNITE what has fallen apart, and to BRING HOME those who have lost their way. Tracks: 1. Creation Rhapsody, 2 Eden Lost, 3. I Need To Know You, 4. Praying With My Eyes Open, 5 Let the Revolution Begin, 6. Prayer, 7. Nothing But Your Heartbeat, 8. Take It All, 9. Sweet Storm, 10. No Prisoners, 11. The Map In My Soul, 12. We Are One
