The remaining members carried on, managing to find the same spirit of those earlier RENAISSANCE days but they did add an electric guitarist. Then in 76, most of the original line-up of RENAISSANCE will regroup to attempt to pick-up where they had left off in 71 but Keith died electrocuted while rehearsal. Relf will then join MEDECINE HEAD, Cennamo will join STEAMHAMMER then Both will form ARMAGEDDON for one album. They will disband after a second album that only got released at the time in Germany. The group will also comprise Jane Relf (Keith's sister) John Hawken and Louis Cennamo. Their first album called "Island" will create the mould for all succeeding record that band will make.
Another ex-YARDBIRDS bassist Paul Samwell-Smith will produce the band. Singer Keith Relf and drummer Jim McCarty will assemble a new group - RENAISSANCE - and make drastically changed musical orientation mixing folk influences with rock and classical music.
But for progressive rock fans, the real interest will be what the remaining members would do. Founded in 1976 - Disbanded in 1979 - Reformed briefly in 2001 as "Renaissance Illusion"Īs the YARDBIRDS were disintegrating, most of the attention was focused on their guitarists Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page and the what lay in the future for them.
