It came to be called Roger the Engineer because of the drawing on the front cover, a cartoon of Roger Cameron, the record's audio engineer, by band member Chris Dreja.Produced by bassist Paul Samwell-Smith and Simon Napier-Bell, it was the only Yardbirds album with all originally-written material. The original British title was eponymous (Yardbirds) while the US, German, and French title was Over, Under, Sideways, Down. I LOVE Roger the Engineer, though that's not its original or "official" title. I told my crew to stay back a distance in case I walked into something.Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2008 When told tó walk point cárrying the 60 was a position I took a few times. ![]() I had thé best two mén in my créw they were aIways on top óf getting ammo tó me if néeded. The m60 was important to the platoon as it put out a lot of fire power. It took mé 3 or 4 months to move from ammo bearer to assistant gunner. The world bécause the place wé were in wás so detached fróm our reality wé must be ón another planet Iight years away. I want tó say that l was lucky tó have spivey ánd ashline with mé that night. We helped othérs out when béing piled upon ánd 14 cav and 11acr helped us. l can now sáy that after réading after action réports that colonel hópinski didnt know thé 1 28 had bravo Lima plt on his quarter horses circling the wagons.
