  • Gotcha. And I agree with "You See Me Crying"...a big fave too. More complicated arrangement on that, but Steven is credited with the arrangement and then Don helped with whatever else. Nine Lives doesn't have even one song written by only band members. At least PV has four. :/

  • AEROSMITH FUCKIN' A

  • 5:49 Oh my god.....he can still do that bluesy voice from his first album? LOVE IT!

  • @Animelloveer HELL YA

  • perfection,steven's voice gets older with age. just like a 62 year old whisky bottle

  • Words can't even describe how much of a beast Brad Whitford is

  • One of the early songs that was actually written by the band. By the time of their 3rd album, Aerosmith began using song writers to write for them. Sure, Steven always adds a tiny phrase here and there, but the songs are overwhelming written for the band. Of this this is true for many so called artists. Using song writers that is. Oh! And those solos from their mid to late 70s albums. It was session players, not Brad or Joe, that coined many of those now famous riffs.

  • @homeydontlie They didnt start using songwriters until Permanent Vacation and the only instance of session players being used in place of Joe and Brad is a couple of the songs from Get Your Wings. Everything else is Joe and Brad. Get your facts straight

  • @homeydontlie This is bullshit unless you can come with facts? Like said here, outside songwriters were used after Permanent Vacation and the individual tracks, credited like on the records, songs like Lightning Strikes, Chip Away the Ston with Richie Supa and Kings & Queens with Jack Douglas.

  • @thijs78 Why are people getting this wrong? Look at the credits starting from the 1st album. Definitely not as many co-writers as Permanent Vacation but there were co-writers on all their early albums & the songs you mention were all before PV. Is that what you meant to say - a track here or there? Not unusual w/ that. "Kings & Queens writing credits: Tyler, Brad Whitford, Hamilton, Joey Kramer, Douglas

    Producers do some tweaking..Bob Ezrin big tweaker b/c he played instruments himself too.

  • @Grendelmonster8u

    homeydontlie is saying that the band was using extensively external songwriters in the seventies, that is just not true. Neither that they intensely used session musicians in the seventies. What songs concretely and what artists/writers according to you?There's no record of such so we should not assume those things. 90% of the songs were written by Steven and Joe in the seventies and they got help with an incidental track like You See My Crying (arranging) and Kings & Queens.

  • @thijs78 I was saying that it ISN'T true that they used outside writers often in the 70s! If you read my posts I was saying they didn't use 'em in the 70s except for a few tracks...hello? For e.g., Steven Emspack is one outside co-writer on the first album, one on the 2nd album, one on the third album, and so on.

    I said they didn't start using lots of outside writers until Permanent Vacation. People just don't take the time to look at the credits on the albums, so you are AGREEING with me.

  • @homeydontlie Aerosmith definitely wrote all their songs on their greatest albums: Aerosmith, Get Your Wings, Toys In The Attic, and Rocks, all the way up until Permanent Vacation, where Geffen insisted on creating a new sound for them, unfortunately. But there were never any guitar fillers with the exceptions of a couple GYW songs. Even so, Aerosmith is arguably the greatest live band of all time, so who CARES about that...when they KICK ASS live.......the most important thing!

  • @Animelloveer Technically that's not true, not ALL songs were their's from the beginning. Co-written songs on 1st, 2nd, 3rd album & on. But hardly as many as Permanent onward. See my latest post. Look at the album credits. And it was hardly unusual for bands to have some co-writers and they were mostly for the music part & arrangement. I agree with last 2 sentences though. I love this song...bluesy with harmonica, yeah.

  • @Grendelmonster8u Yeah, you're right about that. Sorry, I forgot there are a FEW exceptions..such as Somebody, Women of the World (written by Steven Tyler's previous band...The Strangers), and, of course, my favorite You See Me Crying...helped by Steven Tyler's other friend, Don Solomon. And yes, there are covers. But those songs I don't consider as much as them selling out in songwriting like they did Permanent Vacation onward.

  • @homeydontlie That's not accurate. 1st, 2nd, 3rd album each has one co-written song. One way to tell is that most of the pre-Permanent Vacation many of the lyrics are kind of whacky & not polished, if you know what I mean. Some 60s bands like a favorite Cream had help on their hit songs. Outside writers really amped up on Permanent Vacation & forward. I know session players were used on Get Your Wings. That wasn't so unusual b/c that happened w/ other bands b/c they weren't quite up to snuff.

  • Well it doesn't matter but you have the full show!!! I'd love to have it

  • Whats up with ya' finger covering the lens all the time lol

  • maybe we could trade something big fan saw the boys 32 times from 1976 to present was there live 30 min away thanks

  • except for the harmonica solo, which JOE TRIED TO PISS OFF STEVEN BY TAKING OUT!!!

    it was great, i was there

  • Comment removed

  • PERFECT! as usual :) sounds exactly like in the record

  • And this is what she saw!

  • poeple in usa are sitting on concerts? god....

  • @felixmovies its  absurd!!! i mean i wouldnt be able to sit during an aerosmith concert

  • It sounds exactly as their performance in the ''Countdown'' show at osaka in 1999. So fuckin proud of them

  • yea dude if you have the whole concert i would very appreciate it if you email it too me, i went to the las vegas concert on july 31st

  • hey dude i sent you an email regarding me getting the complete sho from you and like please read it and get back to mei NEED to get a copy of this show

    this was the greatest night of my life being there i need to watch it over again completely

  • Good show....but i was real pissed they didn't play more songs off Toys in the Attic and Rocks. There were way too many covers (not including Train Kept a Rollin') and newer mainstream stuff. It was generally a weak set-list and they weren't on top of their game.

  • I was there, it was cool :]

  • I can't wait for tonight!!!

    Fenway Park

  • you have such good video. i was by the sound board so my vids are very faulty
