Limited edition of 750 copies worldwide!!!! Available physically (on LP) for the first time - Jeff Beck joined this line-up just a few months earlier to form the legendary Jeff Beck / Jan Hammer Group - A great and rare live album by the later multiple Grammy Award winner and composer of the Miami Vice soundtrack Jan Hammer in Dallas (venue unknown) in 1977. Czech-American jazz pianist, exceptional keyboarder and composer Jan Hammer is best known for his music for films and television series.

In 1984 he was commissioned to write the theme and background music for the new American crime series "Miami Vice". In November 1985, the Miami Vice soundtrack stormed to the top of the US Billboard charts. With over four million copies sold (the CD had just taken over the market), the album went four times platinum in the US. At the Grammy Awards in February 1986, Hammer's "Miami Vice Theme" won two awards. The Czech-born musician had previously made a name for himself as a member of the Mahavishnu Orchestra, as a Minimoog player on Joni Mitchell's "Mingus" album and through his collaborations with musicians such as Jerry Goodman, Jeff Beck, Al Di Meola, Journey guitarist Neal Schon and John Abercrombie.

In early 1977, Jan Hammer played with the Jan Hammer Group featuring Fernando Saunders (bass), Tony Smith (drums) and Steve Kindler (electric violin) of the Mahavishnu Orchestra in Dallas. Nearly 35 minutes of this concert are now being physically released for the first time on a limited vinyl edition of 750 copies. In the program: 3 tracks from the recently released albums "Melodies" and "Earth" as well as "Blue Wind" from the gold album "Jeff Beck With The Jan Hammer Group" released in March 1977.
