The group showed promise on the first album of rock radio friendly tunes, featuring Jeff Beck. "Back Where I Started" was in the top ten in the U.S. and the album was a featured number one on college campusese. Plans were made for a U.S. tour, but it is alleged that Samwell-Smith, Dreja, and McCarty nixed the idea of the tour, much to John Fiddler's dismay. Jeff Beck, who along with Dzal Martin was considered as the lead guitarist for such a tour, was reportedly disgusted at his ex-bandmates' refusal to tour America. He took no part on the second album, and Fiddler barely chose to do so before walking out. "Asylum" is one of the few songs Fiddler sang on, and was the only one featuring Page.
The track Back Where I Started is regularly included in the set-list of the revived Yardbirds.

Why don't you sit by me
I'm gonna take for a drive
I'm gonna let you love me
Got flowers on your lips
Eyes filled with spiders
I know you take all the trips
You're falling in love with me
You've got your reasons
Harder, harder, harder everyday, yeah
You're falling in love with me
You've got your reasons
Harder, harder, harder everyday, yeah
Hey, you smiled at me gold and still shining
Don't you ever cry for me
You've got your chance and I'm here
You're falling in love with me
You've got your reasons
Harder, harder, harder everyday, yeah
You're falling in love with me

Harder, harder, harder everyday, yeah

The lyrics suggest that the singer wants the girl to give into her emotions and fall in love with him.

Despite this, the singer believes that the girl should take a chance on him and experience love. The lyrics repeated throughout the song, "harder, harder, harder everyday," could signify the intensity of the emotions and the increasing difficulty for the girl to resist falling in love. Ultimately, the song portrays a seductive and persuasive dialogue where the singer is enticing the girl to give in to love and desire.

Page puts together a thunderous 4 piece that dominates rock for a generation and all but spells the demise of the great Yardbirds....until, like the phoenix, they re emerge even better than before as BoF. Excellent album from front to back.
