I was finally able to record some Christmas classics for the fans.â€ About JOE PERRY: As co-founding member, principal songwriter, electrifying lead guitarist and co-producer of Aerosmith--Americaâ€™s Greatest Rock & Roll Band--JOE PERRY has achieved permanent iconic stature in the pantheon of rock. He has helped to drive his band, over the course of four decades, to sales of more than 150 million albums, critical acclaim, four Grammy Awards and induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. PERRY's work with Aerosmith has resulted in an unending array of accolades and honors. In June 2013, PERRY was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame at the organizationâ€™s 44th Annual Induction and Awards Dinner. October 2014 saw the release of PERRYâ€™s first book ROCKS: My Life In and Out of Aerosmith, which debuted on the New York Times Bestseller list at #8. Throughout the book, PERRY reflects on his career with Aerosmith and his life as a musician, husband and father. â€œThe Aerosmith guitarist blasts his way through â€˜Run Run Rudolphâ€™ and â€˜Santa Claus is Back in Townâ€™ and bluesy instrumental versions of â€˜Silent Nightâ€™ and â€˜White Christmas.â€™â€--Dustin Schoof, THE EXPRESS-TIMES (Lehigh Valley, PA). â€œâ€¦a holiday offering from the Aerosmith guitarist that features four familiar tunes including a take on the well-traveled â€˜Run Run Rudolphâ€™ which is commonly thought of as a Chuck Berry tune. Berry didn't write the song but he did apply his distinct, instantly recognizable guitar playing style to it and Perry replicates that nicely here while also adding a bit of raunchy sax to the mixâ€¦ Perry and Aerosmith fans will want this in their collection even though they'll only break it out in December.â€--Kevin Wierzbicki, ANTIMUSIC.COM. â€œâ€˜Joe Perryâ€™s Christmasâ€™ will fill you with cheer! Joe Perryâ€™s holiday EP features five seasonal tunes; â€˜White Christmas,â€™ â€˜Run Run Rudolph,â€™ â€˜Silent Nightâ€™ and â€˜Santa Claus is Back in Townâ€™ with the rock and roll edge only the Aerosmith rocker could offer.â€ --Leslie De Jesus, SINISTERGIRLZ.COM.
