NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Birdland (album)

Birdland is a 2003 album by the Yardbirds and was the first Yardbirds release in over 35 years. The musicians in this version of the Yardbirds differed greatly from their 60's counterpart containing only drummer Jim McCarty and rhythm guitarist Chris Dreja, (although Jeff Beck makes a cameo on one track). Aside from the new replacements (John Idan, Gypie Mayo, Alan Glen) several guest cameos are done by notable guitar legends such as Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Slash, Johnny Rzeznik, Jeff "Skunk" Baxter, and Brian May.
