Jane’s Addiction

On October 31, 1997, Jane's Addiction delivered an electrifying performance at Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City, shortly after the release of their album 'Strays.' This comeback album, released in 2003, marked their first studio effort in over a decade, but it's crucial to note that by the time of the live recording, they were already celebrated for their earlier works like 'Nothing's Shocking' and 'Ritual de lo Habitual.' These albums established them as pioneers of alternative rock. Notably, the live show features Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, revealing the band's knack for vibrant collaborations. It's fascinating how this performance captures a moment of revitalization for Jane's Addiction, blending nostalgia with their evolving sound, encapsulating a pivotal point in their career as they redefined their presence in the rock scene after their hiatus.
