“Yardbirds- Shapes of Things(1966)”

That’s how I first learned to play it. My sister was one of
those 60’s hippies and had that album. I thought I was being
cool all bebopin around strumming that tune then I moved on
to Deep Purple - Machine Head. The first time I covered Shapes in a band was the way Gary Moore played it.

I don’t think Moore is any better than Beck, Becks was pretty good
on Wired. Jimmy Page was right there with Tommy Bolin,
both being way over rated but they had some good tunes.
