JB, The original jazz / rock fusion god in his second adventure. As I felt when I bought the album, awe. Still has the same magic.
This order was for one of the Mobile Fidelity gold CDs that are out of print now. The item was received very quickly (only 3-4 days after ordering and it plays perfectly just as described. When ordering a used item, this is all you can ask for. I have been enjoying this album again after not owning it for a few years.
Was recently contacted regarding my 30 year high school reunion and it made me think back to those days and what kind of music I use to listen too. Jeff Beck, Led Zeppelin and Aerosmith were the first bands that cameto mind.
However, I feel that with Wired, he has much more of his own personal style on this album. To me it seems that several people seem to favor Blow by Blow when it comes to Jeff Beck albums. Jeff Beck might have not done his own composing on this album as he did for some of the tunes on Blow by Blow. There are a couple of nice cover tunes on it, and Jeff Beck's originals are pretty good. His playing is definitely much more funk influenced on that album. The only cover on this one is a jazz standard, "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat." The rest of the tunes were written by members of his band. Although he compositionally didn't do anything for this album, his playing and solos are all great.
