Editorial Reviews

Member of the Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame, founding member of the Yardbirds, Renaissance, Box Of Frogs, Shoot, and other projects. First time on CD. A 2LP vinyl version of 'Frontman' sold out in preorders for Record Store Day 2014. The CD version contains 2 brand new recordings that were not on the LP version. As a founding member of the Yardbirds, Jim McCarty's place in rock 'n roll history was assured, had he retired in 1968. But the creative spark that helped inspire 'I'm A Man', 'Shapes Of Things', 'Happenings Ten Years Time Ago', providing the foundation for heavy metal, psychedelic hard rock, Led Zeppelin and Cream, to name but a few, could hardly be satisfied with a few hits during the British Invasion. Shortly after the untimely demise of the Yardbirds came the first 'Renaissance' album, with it's pedigree of McCarty & Keith Relf, sister Jane Relf, Ex-Nashville Teen John Hawken and Steamhammer's Louis Cennamo. It was an album far over the heads of most rockers, and it in turn helped launch what became known as progressive or symphonic rock, a natural progression for the Yardbirds' creative spark. No thought of simply continuing in the same path, this new adventure was just that, trail blazing with the same passion that the Yardbirds had exhibited. Renaissance gave voice to McCarty & company in fresh new terms, combining a truly progressive rock approach, majestically lyrical, with roots in classical music and romanticism never before heard in a rock format. Once again, they had changed the game, and with Renaissance and then Illusion, Jim McCarty the songwriter truly emerged, up front, never to retreat.

that you will enjoy immensely. Includes songs previously only available on LP
If you missed out on last year's sold out Record Store Day release here is your chance to pick up an digital E.P. that you will enjoy immensely. Includes songs previously only available on LP. Rock and Roll Hall Of Famer Jim McCarty (The Yardbirds) presents some of his finest works outside of the band that most fans know him from. Both Crying Out For Love and Dream Within A Dream have both been recorded by The Yardbirds. Hear them as performed by the composer himself. It All Comes Around also features fellow Renaissance member John Hawken on keyboards. This is a must for all Yardbirds/Renaissance fans.

Yes, Jim McCarty has been a top performer heading many groups since the yardbirds (I dont know what his position was in the yardbirds). I have acquired all that I can that he has touched and let me tell you I spent a lot of money doing it.. This effort proves him to be a true Frontman, songwriter and musician. He brings in good people from all around the british isles and other places i.e. Steve Hackett on this album. I dont find any filler on anything he does or is a part of. He seems to bring the Renaissance sound with him even in little bits in everything he does. Highly recommend this album and anything else he has been a part of. A+

I've been a fan of the Yardbirds since the 60's and just saw them a few weeks ago. Jim Mccarty is a real renaissance man in the music he has created over the years. This album is no exception.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended for fans of singer/songwriters and fans of Renaissance
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 3, 2014

Jim McCarty is probably known more as the drummer of the Yardbirds than a singer/songwriter in his own right. This collection certainly corrects that pre-conception, as it's a collection of his own songs from the seventies (Illusion, the Renaissance spin off) up to his more recent solo work.

These are enjoyable, memorable songs, with interesting arrangement, and variety in the instrumentation. Highly recommended for fans of singer/songwriters and fans of Renaissance, who may find a lot to enjoy here.

The album is a double on blue vinyl and sounded wonderful.
