Description
Released in 1985, "Done With Mirrors" stands as a pivotal "reunion" moment in rock history. After years of internal friction and lineup changes, this album marked the official return of guitarists Joe Perry and Brad Whitford to the Aerosmith fold, restoring the band's classic quintet.
Produced by Ted Templeman (famed for his work with Van Halen), the album captures a raw, stripped-back energy that sought to move away from the polished production of the early '80s. It features a grittier, blues-infused hard rock sound that signaled the band was ready to reclaim their throne.
This 2017 vinyl reissue brings that analog grit back to life on 180-gram wax, offering a high-fidelity listening experience for a record that paved the way for Aerosmith's massive late-80s comeback.
