AEROSMITH "To Reap Millions" With New iTunes Deal
August 24, 2011, 12 years ago
According to Myfoxdetroit.com, Apple’s iTunes signed a groundbreaking deal to add never-before-released digital versions of AEROSMITH’s classic music to the service, the New York Post reported Wednesday.
Apple and Columbia Records were expected to announce that Aerosmith recordings between 1973 and 1987 will be available on iTunes from September 6.
The agreement followed the deal between iTunes and THE BEATLES and their record label, EMI, in November 2010.
Aerosmith, fronted by lead singer Steven Tyler, has its newer works available on iTunes, but its management previously was unable to come to a deal over its classic recordings, including “Walk This Way,” made over two decades.
Aerosmith was set to reap millions from the new deal, according to music industry sources.
