Aerosmith - Live And Acoustic (2025)

On August 11th, 1990, Aerosmith performed at the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York. This performance was recorded from a live FM broadcast. Collects 14 tracks including Hangman Jury; One Way Street; Dream On; Walkin' the Dog; Train Kept A-Rollin'; and more. At the beginning of the 1990s, aerosmith were celebrating a high point in their career. In the wake of 1987’s permanent vacation, which had gone 5 x platinum and spawned the top 20 singles ‘dude (looks like a lady)’, ‘rag doll’ and ‘angel’, their 1989 follow up pump was an even greater success. With four hit singles, all on heavy rotation at mtv, pump was certified 7 x platinum in the u.S. Alone, and earned aerosmith their first grammy award, for the song ‘janie got a gun’. In addition, ‘janie’ also received two mtv video music awards, and is still regularly featured in lists of all-time great videos.

In support of the album, the group embarked on the year-long pump tour, which saw aerosmith play 166 shows across the u.S., europe and asia. The tour featured a staggering selection of support artists, including metallica, poison and skid row. The band also played many high-profile tv and radio shows, including the howard stern show and saturday night live. On the latter, they appeared in a ‘wayne’s world’ sketch, during which they discussed the fall of the soviet union and performed ‘janie got a gun’ and ‘monkey on my back’; entertainment television would later rank this appearance as the no. 1 moment in the program’s history.
