Description
Digitally remastered and expanded edition of the 1984 debut album by this band comprised of former Yardbirds members Chris Dreja, Paul Samwell-Smith and Jim McCarty, who were joined by former Medicine Head and British Lions guitarist and vocalist John Fiddler.
Box Of Frogs was the unusual name given to the mid 80s reunion for three-fifths of the legendary 1960s blues-rockers The Yardbirds. They originally reunited to play at the 25th anniversary of the infamous Marquee Club in June of 1983 which turned out to be a lot of fun so they decided to start writing and see what they could come up with musically. However, as vocalist Keith Relf had passed away back in 1976 and none of the famous guitarists (for those who need reminding, a trio of six string slingers, Clapton, Beck and Page, who went on to achieve a modicum of fame in their own rights!) associated with the band was part of the process, so the band took on a new moniker.
This debut album featured special guests Jeff Beck and Rory Gallagher, along with harmonica player Mark Feltham and keyboard players Max Middleton and Geraint Watkins. Features two bonus tracks: ‘X-Tracks’ and ‘Nine Lives’.
