For the first time Beck leaves the composition tasks to other musicians such as Jan Hammer, Max Middleton and Narada Michael Walden, thus achieving greater spectacularity and a perfect jazz balance to his rock guitar technique.
We only have to listen to the initial "Led Boots" to hear Beck's powerful, intense and energetic guitar, while Middleton on keyboards responds to solo sensations in the same way with superb synthesizer interventions.
"Blue Wind", composed and played by Jan Hammer, explores the jazz-rock terrain from an agile and virtuous perspective, repeating the duets between guitar and keyboard.
There are also moments for tranquility such as "Love Is Green" where Beck shows us his most intimate and delicate facet.
To cap off this sensational album we have the version by Charles Mingus; "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat" masterfully performed by the entire band.
