Jeff Beck clearly understands that there are only two kinds of music: good and bad. Confidently covering everything from Puccini and Eartha Kitt to the blistering rock of Hammerhead and the dirtiest blues known to man, this album covers more genres than Lady Gaga has costume changes.

Supported by a 64-piece orchestra and under the watchful eye of Trevor Horn and Steve Lipson, the legendary guitarist bombards the listener with arguably the most eclectic, original and rewarding set of the year. Joss Stone and Olivia Safe make guest appearances, while Imelda May undertakes a credible cover of Lilac Wine.
