Night in the Ruts专辑介绍

1979年,Aerosmith 推出第六张专辑《Night in the Ruts》。专辑出版不久以后,乐队第二把手——Joe Perry(guitars)因为滥用药品而离开乐队,Jimmy Crespo(guitars)补充进了乐队,但是此时 Aerosmith 整支乐队已是一群终日不醒的瘾君子,《Night in the Ruts》是在一片烟雾腾腾中录制完成的,专辑的质量也就可想而知,《Night in the Ruts》在专辑榜名次为14名,仅仅卖出了金唱片的销量,但却是 Aerosmith迄今为止推出的所有专辑中成绩最差的一张,Joe Perry 被开除不久后,乐队的第二吉他手 Brad Whitford 也退出乐队,成立了自己的乐队开始另起炉灶。

Night in the Ruts is the sixth album by American rock band Aerosmith. Joe Perry left the band midway through its recording. The album was initially produced at the Bands Warehouse/Rehearsal space by Jack Douglas who had produced Aerosmith's previous four albums, but later, Columbia Records brought in Gary Lyons to replace Douglas as the producer.
About halfway through the recording of the album, due to mounting debt and the need for Aerosmith to generate an income, the record label and management set the band out on another tour without extra time to finish the album, which pushed the album to being released later in the year. Perry left the band mid-way through the tour, after a violent feud involving the band members and their wives, and as drug abuse intensified within the band. Prior to his departure, Perry had completed guitar parts for "No Surprize", "Chiquita", "Cheese Cake", "Three Mile Smile", and "Bone to Bone (Coney Island White Fish Boy)". The guitar parts for the remaining songs were recorded by Brad Whitford, Richie Supa, Neil Thompson, and Jimmy Crespo (who later became Perry's official replacement from 1979-84).
Despite some critical acclaim and early success, the album quickly fell down the charts. The album has since achieved platinum status. Promo videos for "No Surprize" and "Chiquita" were filmed (featuring Jimmy Crespo); however, these videos received little television airplay. "Chiquita" is available on the band's Video Scrapbook VHS and laserdisc release. "No Surprize" was Steven Tyler's favorite song.
The title is an intentional spoonerism of the phrase "right in the nuts", which was subsequently the title of the tour, and was shown on the back artwork for the album.
