Aerosmith Release Their Very First Recordings

by Paul Cashmere on April 11, 2022

in News

Aerosmith have released one from the vaults. ‘Aerosmith 1971: The Road Starts Here’ features the band’s very first recordings.

According to Universal Music, “This landmark early recording was made with Joe Perry’s Wollensak reel-to-reel tape machine in 1971 by Mark Lehman who owned the infamous van and became Aerosmith’s one-man road crew, either in the band’s Boston rehearsal room in front of a few select friends, or at a rehearsal the band did during a soundcheck for an early show. All that is certain is that the tape captures a young, hungry rock band one year before being discovered and signing with Columbia Records and two years before their self-titled major label debut was released that helped catapult the band to one of the biggest rock acts of all time. The album release was produced by Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, and Steve Berkowitz”.
