The Fire Meets the Fury Tour is a 1989 concert tour by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jeff Beck. Epic Records paired the two guitarists together for a 29-day concert tour starting in Bloomington, Minnesota. They rehearsed at Prince's Paisley Park Studios before beginning the tour at Northrup Auditorium. The two artists switched headline spots at different points during the tour. During the final December 3 show, in which Jeff Beck opened, Carlos Santana joined the stage playing a few songs on a borrowed Stratocaster.

The Fire Meets The Fury lays out a total of sixteen cuts from the dynamic six string bending duo. Each legendary guitarist is showcased via eight songs, which alternate between the pair. Touring as a three piece, along with drummer Terry Bozzio and keyboardist Tony Hymas, Beck was out on the road in support of his Jeff Beck's Guitar Shop recording. The souped-up title track from the '89 release is included on the promo CD, along with "Stand On It" and "Savoy". In addition, retro Beck tracks, dating back to his days fronting The Jeff Beck Group ("Going Down"), fill out the collection, with "Beck's Bolero", "Freeway Jam", and "Blue Wind", adding depth to the release. Stevie Ray and his tight Double Trouble backing band counter Beck's fretboard prowess with "Tightrope", "Pride and Joy", the raucous "The House is Rockin'", the bluesy "Couldn't Stand the Weather" and "Crossfire", standing out. Like Beck, Vaughan's cover of "Superstition" is included on the limited edition tour sampler.

Oo oo now baby....tell me how have you been

We all have missed you....and the way you grin

The day is necessary....every now and then

For souls to move on....givin' life back again, and again

Fly on fly on....fly on my friend

Go on....live again....love again

Day after day....night after night

Sittin' here singin' every minute....as the years go passing by....by, by, by

Long look in the mirror....we've come face to face

Wishin' all the love we took for granted....love we have today

Life without you....all the love you passed my way

The angels have waited for so long....now they have their way

Take your place....
