Aerosmith

In the live recording of "Monkey on My Back" from December 17, 1989, Aerosmith was riding high on the resurgence of their career, having just released the critically acclaimed album "Permanent Vacation" in 1987. This album marked a significant comeback for the band, introducing a more polished sound and hitting big with hits like "Dude (Looks Like a Lady)" and "Angel." By 1989, they were basking in the success of their follow-up, "Pump," which brought us classics such as "Janie's Got a Gun" and "Love in an Elevator." Interestingly, this concert took place shortly after the band's triumphant return to the spotlight, showcasing their legendary energy and charisma. The Capital Centre in Landover was buzzing with fans eager to see the band rekindle their rock 'n' roll fire, making this performance a memorable highlight in Aerosmith's storied history.
