Happenings Ten Years Time Ago
... that a review for "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" by Penny Valentine said "I have had enough of this sort of excuse for music."?Source: French, David (2020). Heart Full of Soul: Keith Relf of the Yardbirds. Jefferson, North Carolina: McFarland & Company. ISBN 978-1-4766-8011-8. Page 92.

- We can do better than yet another hook built around some critic saying something outrageous about the work given how well researched the article is. How about:
- ALT1:... that Jimi Hendrix told Jeff Beck he "swiped" the latter's feedback sounds in The Yardbirds' "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" for later work of his own?Martin Power, Hot Hired Guitar: The Life of Jeff Beck, 2014. Daniel Case (talk) 18:58, 25 November 2022 (UTC)

Interesting and well-written article on a song that was first overlooked and then became influential. Sources are fine, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. The original hook is not up to say anything about when where what this is, - don't expect readers to know already from the title. The second does it but reads a bit complex. Some will know Jeff Beck, but will the others want to find out? Two things struck me as unusual: the double guitar lead, and the imitated European police sirens. Or what else? If nothing new, please reword ALT1 with the piece in front, - Hendrix there is a bit misleading, and would absorb all the clicks. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:37, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
