* WTHCastingAgency: It wasn't a casting agency but the band itself that made this decision, but at one point, when Jeff Beck was in the band, bassist Paul Samwell-Smith decided he wanted to quit and be a record producer (which he duly did.) This left them with two guitarists and no bass player, so Jimmy Page agreed to join the band...as ''bass player'', because Chris Dreja didn't know how to play bass. So for a while, the band had two of rock's greatest guitarists in its lineup, but only one of them was playing guitar, because the third guitarist was taking too long to learn a new instrument. (Dreja and Page did eventually swap roles, and Beck left shortly afterwards.)

* FanNickname: ''Music/RogerTheEngineer'' was originally a SelfTitledAlbum in England. The [[http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e1/Yardbirds-RogerTheEngineer.jpg cover art]] was Chris Dreja's cartoon portrait of the album's engineer, Roger Cameron, which was titled "Roger The Engineer". As with Music/TheBeatles' ''[[Music/TheWhiteAlbum The White Album]]'', fans started referring to the album by its cover design, and the fan nickname eventually became the semi-official album title.
