Hi. We were wondering why the article Roger the Engineer is about the Little Games album by the Yardbirds. Are they the same? Danny 04:53, 11 Apr 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Move to The Yardbirds (album)

I undid the copy and paste move that was recently done. The big reason was that the move was improperly done, in that the page history remained here. The second reason is that although the intended title was indeed 'The Yardbirds' it has always been colloquially known as 'Roger the Engineer' to such an extent that upon each re-release it has been titled as such by the issuing record company. A google, allmusic or amazon search bears this out. I think it would be more appropriate to leave the article here and make mention of the original title in the introduction. In the future, please discuss moves or other big changes on the talk page prior to action. (Please see the talk page of Ric Grech too.) I don't mean to step on anyone's toes, but I do wish to express my disagreement with the move, and would like to see some other opinions. Alcuin 02:02, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jimmy Page

Although I am unsure of Page's contributions to this album, I am quite sure that joined soon after, and does appear on 'Happinings Ten Years Time Ago' and 'Psycho Daisies', released immediately after this album and frequently added as bonus tracks. Also, even if he wasn't a member quite yet, it's still well within the realm of possibility that he contributed as a studio musician, as he did on countless other records of the era. Please support your removal of him as a contributor with documentation. Thanks, Alcuin 02:02, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
