This release captures a live performance by Steven Tyler from his 2018 solo tour, recorded on June 12 at the Artpark Amphitheater in Lewiston, NY. While many fans still fondly recall his 2017 solo tour in Japan, this latest tour comes at a time when Aerosmith is on hiatus—with Joe Perry also busy with his solo project and the Hollywood Vampires. (Aerosmith fans will also be pleased to know that a Japan tour is scheduled for the autumn!) The performance featured here is excellent, showcasing the country-tinged sound characteristic of Steven’s solo work. The setlist—a well-crafted blend of Aerosmith hits and solo tracks—keeps the listener engaged from start to finish. It is packed with highlights. Although this is an audience recording, it is sourced from a high-quality tape; the mix is well-balanced, clear, and immersive, offering a consistently high-quality listening experience.
