Aerosmith – Rocks LP
My favorite Aerosmith record and in my top ten all time great list. Great from first song to last. Perry later said he was high as hell on heroin when he write Back in the Saddle that the riff ‘floated through him’.
As the cover of this copy may indicate, this is an original ’76 pressing of the record. Love the inner sleeve painting of the band.
Aerosmith – Live Bootleg LP
I love a rainy Friday afternoon, hanging out with my honey, looking at records and eating chili.
This is an original 78′ release of this double live gatefold sleeve album. The band didn’t want to put out a live album like its peers at the time which was basically a bands songs, with audience noise dubbed in, lots of filters to clean up the sound to make the live sound clearer. They did it their way by mis labeling the track list, like many true bootlegs got the track listing wrong. They used songs from a couple of different concerts at the time and two cover songs recorded at a live radio broadcast. The album also features a secret live instrumental cover of “Strangers in the Night” following their cover of “Train Kept A-Rollin'”. Great classic Aerosmith at their best.
