Golden Eggs
''Golden Eggs'' is a bootleg recording of the English rock group The Yardbirds, released by Trademark of Quality. Although it was actually a pirate recording, as it consisted entirely of previously released material, much of that material was hard to find at the time of release in 1975 as it had been deleted. Consequently, the bootleg was successful, and inspired a sequel, ''More Golden Eggs''. Both albums featured cover artwork by William Stout.
==Background==
The Yardbirds are probably best known for launching the careers of Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page, the latter of whom briefly used the group's name when forming Led Zeppelin. By 1975, all three ex-members had achieved superstar status, and consequently there was a strong interest in their former group's recorded output, much of which had only been issued on long-deleted singles and B-sides, and was hard to obtain. The bootleg manufacturer Trademark of Quality (TMQ) noticed this, and decided that an unofficial re-release of this material would be commercially viable.〔
The bootleg was something of a first, as up until that point, rock bootlegs had been the domain of only the most successful acts, such as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Led Zeppelin and Bob Dylan. ''Golden Eggs'' was the first big selling bootleg that dealt with a disbanded group who had had reasonable, but not superb, chart success. At a time where reissues of old material were not commonplace, the bootleg became a success.〔
As well as covering deleted recordings by the group, the album also contained two sides of a solo single by lead singer Keith Relf. The album was also notable for containing "Stroll On", featured in the 1966 film Blowup, which is one of the few recordings to feature both Beck and Page on dual lead guitars.
