A Charly Records brit kiadót 1974-ben Franciaországban Jean-Luc Young alapította amerikai előadók felvételeinek njépszerűsítése céljából. A cég 1975-ben átköltözött az Egyesült Királyágba.
Bár a Charly Blues Masterworks 50 korongos sorozata hiánypótló kiadvány, e lemeze, amely a brit Yardbirds együttes amerikai blues előadókkal készült koncertfelvételeit tartalmazza, egy szempontból kissé pongyolára sikerült.
Mert bár igaz, hogy a Yardbirds együttes három nagyszerű gitárosnak is adott átmenetileg otthont, Jeff Beck e felvételek elkészítésében nem vett részt.
