Aerosmith – Live Bootleg

Description

A collection of untouched recordings culled from various concerts during Aerosmith’s 77/78 tours. That’s the attraction of this album, it’s pureness and rawness. It is a great concert document of crazy, drugged up late 70’s Aerosmith. It captures the band in full swing. It’s a great guitar album as well, Whitford and Perry’s guitars working together, with the sold bass and drums of Tom and Joey. Steve’s vocals are raw. Sometimes this rawness is all to clear, like with the opener ‘Back in the Saddle’. They do the ultimate version of ‘Come Together’, which I think is one of the highlights, as well as cracking versions of ‘Sick as a Dog’, ‘Mama Kin’, ‘Lord of the Thighs’, (where we are treated to an extended jam), ‘Draw the Line’ and the great ‘Chip away the Stone’.
