JOE PERRY (Aerosmith) – Sweetzerland Manifesto (2018)
JOE PERRY — legendary guitarist, co-founding member, principal songwriter and co-producer of AEROSMITH — will release his new solo album “Sweetzerland Manifesto” tomorrow (his first since 2009) featuring a wide array of guests vocalists ranging from the New York Dolls’ David Johansen and Cheap Trick’s Robin Zander, to his sons, Tony and Roman.
“Sweetzerland Manifesto” marks Joe’s sixth solo album and is comprised of 10 new tracks. They were all written or co-written by Joe (many with the album’s guest vocalists), except for a cover of “Eve Of Destruction” with Joe on lead vocals and movie star Johnny Depp on drums.
The album features guest appearances from a long list of Joe’s friends, colleagues and rock and roll icons.
Highlights include include “Aye, Aye, Aye”, which Perry co-wrote with the track’s vocalist Robin Zander, and three collaborations with David Johansen, who sings “I Wanna Roll”, “Haberdasher Blues” and “I’m Going Crazy”, plus as many co-writes with Terry Reid whose lead vocals light up “I’ll Do Happiness” (with Zak Starkey on drums), “Sick & Tired” and “Won’t Let Me Go”.
“Sweetzerland Manifesto” is cool, entertaining blues-based rock albums with sone hard rocking moments and a fine vintage-like production.
