Roger
the Engineer (originally released in the UK as Yardbirds and in the US,
West Germany, France and Italy as Over Under Sideways Down) is the only
UK studio album and the third US album by the English rock band the
Yardbirds. Recorded and released in 1966, it contains all original
material and is the only Yardbirds album with guitarist Jeff Beck on all
tracks. It was produced by bassist Paul Samwell-Smith and manager Simon
Napier-Bell.
Although the British edition is still officially titled
Yardbirds by authoritative chart sources, such as Official Charts
Company, it has since been referred to, first colloquially, then
semi-officially, as Roger the Engineer, a title stemming from the cover
drawing of the record's audio engineer Roger Cameron by band member
Chris Dreja.
It is the only Yardbirds album to appear in the UK
Albums Chart, where it reached number 20. In the US, it reached number
52 on the Billboard 200 album chart, making it the band's
highest-charting studio album in the US. It reached number 8 in Finland.
The album's best-known song, "Over Under Sideways Down", was released
as a single in May 1966, two months before the album.
The album is
included in Robert Dimery's 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. In
2012, the album was ranked number 350 on Rolling Stone's list of the
500 greatest albums of all time.
