Jeff Beck – Wired

Description

An instrumental album, it peaked at No. 16 on the Billboard 200 and has been certified platinum by the RIAA. Of the album tracks, four are originals by Narada Michael Walden and one by Jan Hammer. Max Middleton contributed the homage to Led Zeppelin, “Led Boots”, and Beck chose to interpret the Charles Mingus ode to saxophonist Lester Young, “Goodbye Pork Pie Hat”, from the classic 1959 jazz album Mingus Ah Um. These last two tracks have been long-time staples of Beck’s performance repertoire.
