Beat Crazy is the third album by Joe Jackson, released in October 1980, and credited to the Joe Jackson Band.[3] It was a relative disappointment commercially, peaking outside the Top 40 in both the UK and the United States, with its singles failing to chart.[4] One reason for the reduced sales in the U.S. may have been that the group did not tour to support it there.[4] Nevertheless, the Joe Jackson Band was successful and toured extensively.[4] This would be the last studio album released by the Joe Jackson Band's original line-up until 2003's Volume 4.[5]
