Jeff Beck – NEW YORK 1980 CD

After a fairly sporadic career during the first half of the seventies, in 1976 Jeff Beck teamed up with ex-Mahavishnu Orchestra drummer and composer Narada Michael Walden and keyboardist Jan Hammer to record Wired (1976). The album used a jazz-rock fusion style, which sounded similar to the work of his two collaborators. To promote the record, Beck joined forces with the Jan Hammer Group, playing a show supporting Alvin Lee at The Roundhouse in May 1976, before embarking on a seven-month-long world tour. This resulted in the live album Jeff Beck with the Jan Hammer Group Live (1977).
