''Flash'' is the fourth studio album by guitarist Jeff Beck, released in July 1985 through Epic Records.〔Erlewine, Stephen Thomas. ("Flash - Jeff Beck" ). ''AllMusic''. All Media Network. Retrieved 2013-10-08.〕 The album is Beck's most successful to date, reaching No. 39 on the U.S. ''Billboard'' 200 chart〔("Flash - Jeff Beck | Awards" ). ''AllMusic''. All Media Network.

The second single, "Gets Us All in the End", reached No. 20 on Mainstream Rock. The instrumental "Escape" went on to win the award for Best Rock Instrumental Performance at the 1986 Grammys,〔("28th Grammy Awards - 1986" ). Rock On The Net.

==Overview==
The album is unique for Beck in that it is composed mainly of vocal songs, save for two instrumentals in the form of "Escape" and "You Know, We Know" (each written by his longtime collaborators Jan Hammer and Tony Hymas respectively). Designed to be a foray into pop music in order to capitalise on that sound at the time, ''Flash'' was produced by Nile Rodgers for that reason. Such was the desire to score a hit album, Beck uncharacteristically found himself singing on "Get Workin'" and "Night After Night", at the insistence of Rodgers.〔Rosen, Steven (1989). ("Jeff Beck Interview (1989)" ). Modern Guitars Magazine. Archived from (the original ) on 2011-01-05. Retrieved 2013-10-08.〕 "Ambitious" and "People Get Ready" feature a rare instance of Beck playing a Jackson Soloist rather than his usual Fender Stratocaster.〔Noble, Douglas J (June 1993). ("Jeff Beck Outtakes" ). The Douglas J Noble Guitar Archive. Retrieved 2013-10-08.〕 Despite its success, he has since expressed his disdain for the album, calling it a "record company goof" and "a very sad sort of time" for him.〔〔Guy, Paul (1999). ("Jeff Beck - Who Else?" ). Paul Guy Guitars. Retrieved 2013-10-08.〕
The CD edition of ''Flash'' included two bonus tracks, "Nighthawks" and "Back on the Streets", which were originally released as B-sides. Another track from the album's recording sessions, "Wild Thing" (a cover of The Troggs), was released only as a promo single and never on the album,〔("Jeff Beck – Wild Thing" ). Discogs. Retrieved 2014-09-13.〕 but would later be featured on Beck's 1991 compilation album ''Beckology''.
