| | Beverly Craven b |
 | | Her 1993 album release was produced by Paul Samwell-Smith and although it breifly charted the songs gave an indication that Craven's career was at a crossroads, and that her brand of solo pop belongs to her debut album. | | | The results of this work bore fruit with her debut album, initially only successful in Europe, which eventually led to a number 3 placing in the UK charts and a hit single of the same title. | | | She lifted the Best British Newcomer at the 1992 BRIT Awards before giving birth to a daughter in March 1992, and a year later embarked upon UK concert tour. |

| | Jimmy Page - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | As a producer, composer and guitarist for the band, he was one of the major driving forces behind the rock sound of that era, with his trademark Gibson Les Paul guitar and Marshall amplification. | | | John Paul Jones, keyboardist Nicky Hopkins, Jeff Beck and Page recorded "Beck's Bolero" in London's IBC Studios. | | | The musical potential of the line-up however was scuttled by interpersonal conflicts caused by constant touring and a lack of commercial success. |

| | My first major success at what I felt to be a pop song |
| | Paul Samwell-Smith: I think it was one of the first tracks we did on 24-track, and it got to be a mess. | | | Paul Samwell-Smith: We did the backing track quite early on, and then he went off and recorded it with Jimmy Cliff. | | | Paul Samwell-Smith: The guitars are Alun Davies and a guy called Andy Roberts. |

| | Paul Samwell-Smith (The Yardbirds bassist) decided that he had all he could take of this and quit. | | | So Robert Plant and John Paul Jones wrote most of the songs on the album. | | | Jimmy Page was working at the sessions for Donovan's 'Hurdy Gurdy Man' and John Paul Jones asked him if he could use a bass player in the new group. |

| | The Screamin' Mimi Compact Disc "The Yardbirds' Greatest Hits" |
| | STILL I'M SAD (Paul Samwell-Smith, Jim McCarty) The flip side to their English "Evil Hearted You" hit single, this was the strangest track the band had cut up to that time --- a Gregorian chant-inspired number whose total instrumentation consisted of seven massed voices (including their producer, Giorgio Gomelsky), a triangle and an acoustic guitar. | | | (Paul Samwell-Smith, Keith Relf, Jim McCarty) Recorded at Chess late in 1965, "Shapes of Things" was unlike anything the band had done before. | | | John Paul Jones, later of Led Zeppelin, was called in to play bass. |

| | Paul and Steve made 5 albums together as a duo between 1992 and 1999. | | | The band's "modern pop" period began with the enlistment of new lead singer Paul Menel, and the album Nomzamo. | | | Originally, it was going to consist of three keyboardists and a drummer, but it was soon clear that with the superb musicians Paul Bass on Hammond organ, and Brian Whitcomb on piano, the sound was full and complex. |

| | John Paul Jones's bassline is from the Yardbirds version, where Paul Samwell-Smith was the bass player. | | | However, the answer to this was provided by John Paul Jones in a 1993 radio interview, celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the formation of Zeppelin, where he indicated that the name comes from the jokes about the wife going on holiday. | | | The string on this song are not real and are actually John Paul Jones on a mellotron, an early synthesizer. |

| | And while its easy to be blinded by the fact that a single band could boast Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page in succession, each band member (bassist Paul Samwell-Smith, drummer Jim McCarty, rhythm guitarist Chris Dreja, and singer-harpist Keith Relf) was essential to the bands sound and direction. | | | His influences (including Buddy Guy, Les Paul, and Gene Vincent sideman Cliff Gallup) were about as discernible as T-Bone Walkers influence was in Albert Kings resultant style. | | | The quintet was now a quartet, and instead of a bandmate (Paul) producing, hitmaker Mickie Most was brought onboard. |

| | On one of those occasions at the May Ball (in May) held at Oxford College it was announced by Paul Samwell-Smith that it was his last appearance with the band. | | | The Les Paul session that was to feature Beck on one song never happened due to the producer (Phil Ramone) having difficulties with the project. | | | Page and Relf had worked on the song in the studio, had John Paul Jones play bass and later on Jeff Beck overdubbed his guitar and some spoken words in the song. |

| | The Yardbirds |
| | Cut-rate producer Mickie Most rushed them through the studio and brought in session players Nicky Hopkins (keyboards) and John Paul Jones (bass), and he also had them record several novelty tunes by hack writers (the enjoyable, galloping title track, a flop single, and the catchy "No Excess Baggage"). | | | The companion two-disc set Blues, Backtracks, And Shapes Of Things is so cruddy it's a ripoff, but if you're a completist, this and either CD version of Little Games will give you a full collection of the Yardbird's original LP, EP, and single releases. | | | The only Page-era Yardbirds album flopped badly and indeed is mediocre. |

| | Reuniting with producer Paul Samwell-Smith, this 1974 collection kicks off with the bracing "Music" and never looks back, managing to be both more adventurous and focused than its predecessor. | | | It also marked a return to the simpler style of earlier albums. | | | Though perhaps belied by the preciousness of the hit "Oh, Very Young," there's a muscular determination to songs like "Sun/C79" and "Ready" that serves Stevens well. |
