Here's the next episode of Chordplay with The Chords of Aerosmith.
I've been an Aerosmith fan since I was in high school, and while my real interest with the group lies in their legendary funky-grit-rock from the 1970s, their longevity, popularity, and influence is undeniable and Joe Perry and Brad Whitford (Aerosmith's secret weapon) are total guitar legends.
This lesson takes a look at some memorable and interesting chord-based ideas from Aerosmith's catalog of music during their heyday in the '70s, including classic riffs and chord moves from 'Back In The Saddle,' 'Same Old Song And Dance,' 'Draw The Line,' and many more. Perry and Whitford find various ways to lock together in their songs, but I've always attempted to combine different parts together and have found myself doing that a lot with Aerosmith's music, so this lesson touches on this "grab what you can" subject as well.
There should be something here for everyone, as Aerosmith has always had one foot in rock and the other in blues, while also pulling out various funk, soul, and R&B influences as well, so you never really know what's going to happen next and their classic material is literally a goldmine of great ideas you can learn from and explore.
Give this episode a view, leave some comments and feedback, and please subscribe to Late Night Lessons - THANK YOU!

Me too, Paul! Growing up I listened to Rocks, Toys, Get Your Wings and the Zep catalogue almost exclusively until The Police came along and I added them to my limited repertoire!

Perfect analogy; "Brad was the finesse and Joe was the mess." I've always thought Brad was much more accomplished. But like you said, they complemented each other, which exemplified the Aerosmith sound.

Yeah Brad was definitely a schooled player. He even went to Berklee School of Music in Boston. Brad said that Joe Perry plays mostly by feel.

You know when you are a kid, you just listen to whatever music your parents listen to. Then one day you have that "Ah ha!" moment when you discover what YOU like? My moment was "Back in the Saddle"--and an instant lifelong Aerosmith fan. Fast forward a few years and I read that same issue of Guitar Player with the transcription to "Dream On" and had that same lightbulb go on with those opening chords. I feel like we would get along great over beers! Great channel and great content.

I LOVE That pic of Joe looking out at the huge crowd (Day on the Green? Texas Jam? California Jam?) . Whichever show it was, that was the time they were absolutely HUGE and cruising to the moon at a million miles an hr. ! What a great band! I'll always say , for American Rock N Roll: it's Van Halen (original) and Aerosmith - 2 best bands of the Classic Rock era ....2 Greatest American Bands ever.......? I think so!

Steven Tyler’s father was a classical pianist, I believe. Perry was following the Tyler-composed piano chords on Dream On.

"Sick as a dog" and "No more no more" were my favorites as well as both of those albums! The opening riff/main riff on "Adams Apple" is great but the lead is killer! I think it's Brad Whitford playing that lead. Love to see you tackle that lead on one of your videos.

I grew up on old skool Smith and they were a HUGE influence when i was in middle school in the 70s learning how to play. I was lucky to grow up in the Northeast and see them live 20+ times in the 70s. THE dirty rock band that spawned all the other American dirty rock bands to follow. You should get into how Joe and Brad played alot of different parts simultaneously. Like Angus and Malcolm, you could listen to the guitar in the left speaker and learn the song one way then listen to the guitar in the right speaker and learn the same song another way. The Toys example u gave is perfect for that, u showed Joe's part, Brad plays a completely diff part during that riff, albiet a simpler part. Those lads showed me how to play the 'same' thing in diff positions to really open up the sound.

I concur regarding the 70's being the best of what those guys ever did. 😎 And a btw, I can recall the general look of guitar magazines' covers that had songs I spent time with in them, even if but the general colors and possibly who was on the cover. I have the ole GFTPM issue from the mid eighties that had 'Dream On' and 'Sweet Home Alabama' in it as the 2 I focused upon in that issue; but it was a light grayish background with Aerosmith on the cover. Earlier today I was trying to recall the cover of the issue that had Badlands' 'Winter's Call' in it and I hope I'm accurate tomorrow when I go to look for it. That's how I often locate the issue I want to review when I check 'em out again years later. 😎 And I'm adamant about arranging magazines and books much like a public library; go figure, the cover image memory is my card catalog. On Back In The Saddle, the way you were doing illustrating it is made me realize that perhaps George Lynch was inspired by that given the It's Not Love riff?

I first got into Aerosmith at 14 and it was from an unlikely record for most folks -- Rock in a Hard Place. I had heard of Aerosmith previously but it was probably just Walk This Way. Luckily my brother had a friend with a huge record collection, and he dropped off Greatest Hits, I still preferred Rock In a Hard Place. But the dongs started to grow on me, and then he dropped off Toys, Rocks, Draw The Line and Live Bootleg. :D Rocks blew my mind in it's entirety. Back in the Saddle and Last Child are just that much more majestic in the framework of that album. In my old age I kind of prefer Draw The Line. Crank "I Wanna Know Why" and "Sight For Sore Eyes" if you're not familiar. For starters.

Back in the Saddle can be done with an octave divider set an octave below. The main licks are played mostly on the higher strings.

Thanks Dave! Aerosmith was THE band that taught me how to play. I'm glad you stuck to their 70s because IIMO that material is what matters anyway. Sadly their later albums just weren't up to the same level. Draw the Line had some good songs, but the production on it was horrible IMO.

I just stumbled upon this, you could be right up there with Joe and Brad, I was 13 in "76 my first concert was Aerosmith saw them over 20 times, and saw them at Cal Jam 2 yes Steven couldn't remember the lyrics to the songs, I saw them in '83 here in Vegas with Jimmy Crespo and Rick Dufay, again Steven was actually worse at this show with Pat Travers opening up was better than Aerosmith.
