In continued celebration of their 50th anniversary, today, the four-time Grammy Award-winning and diamond-certified rock legends AEROSMITH (Steven TylerJoe PerryTom HamiltonBrad Whitford and Joey Kramer),have announced the launch of “50 Years Live!: From The Aerosmith Vaults”, the band’s new “official bootleg” streaming concert series featuring five deep, archival, and unreleased multi-camera live shows from AEROSMITH‘s vast personal vaults. With the entire production of all five concert films supervised by AEROSMITH, the series kicks off with a live stream of “Live From The Summit, Houston, TX, 1977”, a combination of classic live performances from a two-night stand in Houston in 1977 that captures the band in all its raw and powerful rock ‘n’ roll splendor.

“Live From The Summit, Houston, TX, 1977” premiered on AEROSMITH‘s official YouTube channel earlier today (Friday, July 29) and will be available, in its entirety as a gift for fans, for one week only. Highlight clips from “Live From The Summit, Houston, TX, 1977” will also be added to AEROSMITH‘s YouTube channel on July 30 and will include “Back In The Saddle”“Mama Kin” and “Sweet Emotion”.

For “50 Years Live!: From the Aerosmith Vaults”, producer Steve Berkowitz, along with longtime AEROSMITH employees Tommy Higgins and John Bionelli, combed through the band’s vast Vindaloo Vaults, unearthing a treasure trove of filmed concerts recorded in the original formats of the day, covering the band’s history throughout the decades. With the help of director and producer Jennifer LeBeau (Lady GagaTony BennettBob DylanPaul Simon),this footage was carefully transferred and converted to digital to help preserve these historic recorded documents. Produced by Steve Berkowitz and Dennis Wolfe, the video and audio restoration was skillfully conducted by Vanderquest UK and Formosa Sound, giving these performances the highest possible visual and sonic quality.

For five consecutive weeks, starting on July 29 with “Live From The Summit, Houston, TX, 1977”AEROSMITH‘s official web site and YouTube channel will premiere a different concert every week from each decade. With each show, the band’s official online store will also feature a new collection of exclusive merchandise capsules celebrating each decade.

In addition to their upcoming dates in Las Vegas, AEROSMITH is set to perform at Maine Savings Amphitheater in Bangor, Maine on September 4 before they head to Boston for a show at the historic Fenway Park on September 8.

Throughout the 1990s, AEROSMITH continued to be an unstoppable force in rock, delivering a high energy set at Coca-Cola Star Amphitheater on July 2, 1993, with all the same swagger and attitude they had from day one. The tightly knit band belts out now classics such as “Eat The Rich”“Janie’s Got A Gun”“Livin’ On The Edge” and “Cryin'”. Older favorites include “Last Child”“Walk This Way” and “Back In The Saddle”.

The band wastes no time getting into their groove as Steven Tyler swaggers through classics such as “Draw The Line” and “Rats In The Cellar”, as well as “Crazy” and their hit ballad “I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing”.
