For Your Love

"For Your Love" is a rock song written by Graham Gouldman and recorded by the English group the Yardbirds.

Guitarist Eric Clapton disapproved of this change, and chose to leave the group shortly after the single was released.

[9] Gouldman wrote the song at the age of 18 while working by day in a gentlemen's outfitters near Salford Docks and playing by night with the semi-professional Manchester band the Mockingbirds.

[1][2] The majority of the song was recorded with singer Keith Relf and drummer Jim McCarty backed by session musician Ron Prentice on bowed bass, Denny Piercy on bongos, and Brian Auger on harpsichord.

Cash Box called this version "a totally contemporary, yet still hard rocking treatment from this great British band of rockers" that maintains the essence of the original tune.
