The Yardbirds' Big 3

The Yardbirds were probably most famous as one of the first bands to start doing rock songs that would be termed psychadelic rock and for having been the band to have featured 3 of the most important and influential guitar players to have ever come out of Britian: Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page.

Which one of the 3 do you feel made the most impact as a member of the group and which will be rememberd most for his influence on so many future guitar players and as the one who really defined the guitar sound of The Yardbirds?

Wow that's a tough question, I guess Clapton is out of there cuz he never did anything that made me say wow, his music never impressed me (mmmm Cream on the other hand...)
Guess I have to go with Page , cuz he's still relevant, and oft mentioned during interviews...
