He and Eric co-wrote some great songs together and he pushed Eric to start the job to put together a recording line-up for the album and just go out and do his own thing.
On vocals, Eric recruited none other than at the time new

As requested, here’s the AEROSMITH performance they did for MTV Unplugged recorded at the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York, on August 11th 1990. Oddly, this terrific set never was officially released on CD or any other format.
Fortunately, now it’s being available a good quality sound remastered version. Despite the show was professionally recorded by MTV, the previous bootlegs circulating were muddy. This 2024 release is still a bootleg, however this time we enjoy a proper sound.
Australian singer/songwriter Adam Brice recently released his debut album “Never Is Too Late”, which is available to listen to on plotn08, among other platforms.
