Aerosmith Rockin' Roots Of Aerosmith

2015, Aerosmith is an American rock band, sometimes referred to as ´the Bad Boys from Boston` and ´America's Greatest Rock and Roll Band`. Their style, which is rooted in blues-based hard rock, has come to also incorporate elements of pop, heavy metal, and rhythm and blues, and has inspired many subsequent rock artists. The band was formed in Boston, Massachusetts in 1970. Guitarist Joe Perry and bassist Tom Hamilton, originally in a band together called the Jam Band, met up with vocalist/pianist/harmonicist Steven Tyler, drummer Joey Kramer, and guitarist Ray Tabano, and formed Aerosmith. In 1971, Tabano was replaced by Brad Whitford, and the band began developing a following in Boston. ROCKIN' ROOTS OF AEROSMITH offers rare live recordings from 1972 and 1974, recorded from US radio KSWM.
