Aerosmith. Aerosmith was formed in late 1969 in Sunapee, New Hampshire. Two bands, Chain Reaction, led by Steven Tallarico (Steven Tyer), and the Jam Band, featuring Joe Perry and Tom Hamilton, had often played at a local club called The Barn. Tallarico decided that he should front this sloppy, blues-based band, and that they needed another guitarist and a new drummer. The new band, Aerosmith became America's version of the Rolling Stones. Their album, Draw the Line, CBS, Inc., 1977, signed on the cover by: Steven Tyer, Tom Hamilton, Joey Kramer, Joe Perry and Brad Whitford. The record is included, the jacket has wear and some soiling.
