He did this so the band wouldn’t get all stressed out when the light went. A trick he used with the band was removing the “red light” in the studio that indicated the band was recording. He felt that was the sound everyone loved. He wanted to capture that tough, live sounding magic that they had on their earlier albums. Templeman was going for a rough and raw sound like the days of old for the band. This was supposed to be the album that brought Aerosmith back to the top, however, that didn’t happen. They were now on a new label, Geffen, and the incredible producer, Ted Templeman was brought in to be behind the boards. Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, Brad Whitford, Tom Hamilton and Joey Kramer…the boys were back together. However, the drug problems were not gone.Īfter the tour, it was time for the big Comeback album. And she wasn’t a great influence on Joe either.
One big thing that helped was that Perry was now divorced from his wife who the band and all their wives hated. And by June 1984, the original band was reunited and were now out on the road for the Back in the Saddle Tour which would keep them busy until January 1985. When the five original band members got in a room together, the magic started bubbling again. It was former band mates Joe Perry and Brad Whitford. While the band was playing a show at Boston’s Orpheum Theater, they received two special guests to see the show. But at the time, they didn’t realize how big. Something big happened to the band on Valentine’s Day 1984.
