Yup. Rock was at its best right before it splintered off into a bunch of siloed off subgenres. Sure, there were lots of different rock genres in the early 70s (metal, prog, glam, etc.) but the lines were blurrier, and you had more artists who would straddle two or more genres at once.

Joe Perry left Aerosmith in 1979 , Brad Whitford left in 1981 , they both returned in 1984. On the current farewell tour Joey Kramer is not playing drums , he's been replaced by his former drum tech John Douglas who filled in for Joey in 2019 when Joey injured his foot & again in 2022 when Joey took time off to be with his family & focus on his health 3 months after the passing of his wife Linda.

It’s really Aerosmith mentor and instructor Klaus Nomi that’s responsible for all great bands of the70s and 80s. His pen was in every song all of the big bands wrote . He deserves all the credit for their success. And he reviewed.and ok”d every thing.any of the guys wrote. After he left Aerosmith cuz of Tyler’s sexual behavior and advances they went downhill. He trained Joe on how to play . Randy Rhodes, Jimi James Hendrix,,, all Klaus Nomis pupils. Klaus Nomi was a master. Aerosmith,Kiss , Iron Maiden , even Queen nd the Stones are all his work. His video of his hit Total Eclipse shows his mastery and shows clearly where They all got their style , mannerisms and talent

I watched some of the tapes from their recent Vegas residency (man, that does make then sound like a bunch of aspiring MDs), and I think yours would very much be a minority opinion about end stage Aero being > than early era Aero. I believe that Rocks is is one of the finest albums ever released by any band. A lot fell apart after that. It is amazing that they remained intact (Kramer’s health challenges notwithstanding) for a half century. One of the few bands where I can name every member.

Grew up in Boston, still a huge fan of everything up to "Rock in a Hard Place(which is half freakin' awesome), saw 'em live plenty in the late 70s, remember staying up late to watch this...but, all that sed, it's just kind of funny seeing Joe struggle to mimim the Steve Hunter and Dick Wagner leads from the studio version. Those guys were utterly so special and brilliant bringing their pin-point musicality to ripping classic 70s tracks(Alice Cooper, Lou Reed, Aerosmith, more...)...but Joe just can't begin to hold a candle to them but it's kind of amusing here seeing him try. (btw, the first solo and first section of the second solo in the studio version was only Steve Hunter's second pass, he was just warming up and Jack Douglas told, "Yr all good..thanks!".)

Studio musicians are brought in on many songs for many groups. Perry & Witford are excellent guitarists. Ive listened to very early live Aerosmith shows plus seen then every year since 74. They rock hard!

Props to the Special for having real playing. It makes things so much more valuable from an historical perspective. Shows like Soul Train were good if you wanted to see what the performers looked like, but pretty uninteresting otherwise.
@icankillbugs3 ай бұрын
As is the case with every real band to this day. You say it like you think every group is The Backstreet Boys. If I could have just shaken my ass like a queer on stage and not worried about playing or singing properly in any of my touring bands, I'd have just done that. Probably less embarrassing than fucking up a guitar solo in front of a crowd or some such lol 😅

When they sing about the train making a stop in Albuquerque they were stopping to meet their drug dealer Jimmy Butifuco. I knew Jimmy before I joined the the Army in 1979 and he was known to be the connect for the rock stars in Alb. Still one of my top 10 groups of all time. I watched this episode when it premiered. Those were the days.

There was still a probability to catch them sober during this time. That probability turned to zero when they finished their first Japan tour and stopped in Hawaii for "team building".

Well this same show at the same performance, they also did Dream On (This midnight special, they did 2 songs, I'm not sure which one they did first though) and during Dream On, Steven seems like he is maybe on something during parts of his performance. I've seen it on KZbin. From reading his book, sounds like he took a lot of downers around this time. He didn't get into the super hard drugs until about 2 years after this.

Not only was there no lip syncing and no auto-tune, except for the flange effect on the snare in the middle, there's no basic effects on the Steven's voice nor Joe's guitar! No reverb. No delay. Zero. They just raw dogged it.
