Aerosmith's Joe Perry Critical Of Steven Tyler

(Classic Rock) Aerosmith's Joe Perry says his Toxic Twin Steven Tyler is less of a team player than he used to be. And the guitarist's biggest regret is that the band let too much control out of their hands in the 1970s.

His stormy relationship with Tyler has pushed Aerosmith to the edge of collapse on a number of occasions. Perry says of the partnership today: "Steve has become more driven and hungry for acceptance and fame than he was in the 70s, or even the early 80s. He was more of a team player back then.

"Even when I first met him I knew he was going to be a handful. There was something about him that was off. But everybody is quirky - he's also an incredibly talented musician and drummer with an incredible voice. I figured whatever comes along with that package I can deal with."

He had a lot more to say here.
