they all had a tendency to play a bit too loud.
i remember a yardbirds concert (with page) in the beacon theater (i think), where they played so loud it was actually painful. beck was prone to doing that also.

and nobody has mentioned Mick Taylor. he played on a John Mayall album called "diary of a band", and did some nice stuff. (it think he played briefly with the stones, but that's another matter.)

Mick Taylor was a very good blues soloist. ....reserved, rarely attempting to break new ground. Mimicked his personality. Saw him with Mayall and the Bluesbreakers at the Roxy in L.A. in the early 80s. Total Professionals.

The Yardbirds? Man, you go way back.

The Who used to hold the Guinness Book Of World records top spot for volume-I don't think that they still do.
