And now we are on to the question of the day. This band became one of the biggest bands of the 70s, with its own jet taking them from gig to gig. They wrote one of the greatest rock songs ever (at least in my opinions) named after a hotly contested region in Asia, although the lyrics are more ethereal. So... Who was this third guitarist, what is the band, song, album, and year I am looking for?

December 22 - Heart Full Of Soul
The answers to the 21st set of questions was that Jeff Beck replaced Eric Clapton in The Yardbirds, and their first single with him was Heart Full Of Soul which later was featured on the American album Having A Rave Up With The Yardbirds from 1965. It's a remarkable song, especially given that its writer, Graham Gouldman, who penned a boatload of great 60s British rock and pop hits still only was 19 that year. But the performance of the song is also great - The Yardbirds was a very underrated band that really deserves the credit for launching three (!) guitar gods into the pantheon of rock music. We have covered Clapton and Beck. The third one's band was initially called The New Yardbirds, but changed name following a tour of Scandinavia in 1969.
