Notes from the original pressing. Later editions may differ.
The album contains studio recordings by the group between 1964-1968. About half of the tracks had been issued as the A-side and B-sides of singles (including two solo songs by singer Keith Relf) but remained unreleased on albums at the time. The balance is made up of album tracks, most of which were unreleased in the UK.
The material draws heavily on the Jimmy Page-era Yardbirds, plus a few recordings with Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck. Due to its popularity, a sequel, More Golden Eggs, was issued
