Jane’s Addiction

In November 1996, Jane's Addiction was riding high on the wave of their critically acclaimed album, "Ritual de lo Habitual," which had cemented their place in the alternative rock scene. This live recording at the Hammerstein Ballroom showcases their raw energy and unique sound, drawing a crowd that was still buzzing from the band's reunion and the success of their 1997 release, "Strays." Notably, this was a time when they were blending elements of rock with theatrical elements, making their performances unforgettable. Plus, the band was known for their eclectic stage presence, thanks in part to frontman Perry Farrell's charismatic and often unpredictable style. It was during this vibrant era that they were actively shaping the alternative music landscape, leaving audiences on the edge of their seats.
