AEROSMITH guitarist Brad Whitford is featured in a new interview discussing, among other things, his relationship with bandmate Joe Perry and the band's new album, Music From Another Dimension!. An excerpt is available below:

Q: How would you describe your relationship with Joe Perry as guitarists?

Brad: "We're very intuitive. We have a natural ability to complement each other's playing. It's kind of come full circle, actually. Joe is playing as well as I've ever heard him. He's been through some rough periods in his life, and it affected his playing, but now he's on top of his game. It makes my life a lot easier when we can both work together the way we do. Certain guitar players I've worked with, either you blend very well or you clash."

Q: After all these years, a lot of people think of you as the band's "rhythm guitarist," which isn't true at all. How intact is your ego?

Brad: "I don't have an overblown part of me that has to stand in special light or do something that I don't feel has anything to do with my true passion, which is just performance. I don't have to stand on the nose of the stage or on the tallest part of the building... or any of that. What people understand and what they get is honesty in your music. That shines through stronger than anything. It's just like witnessing a great performance by a great actor. It's a matter of letting go and allowing the artistry to shine through. I think I always knew that, the idea that I didn't have to be a flash in the pan. I just needed to concentrate on the gift that I've been given."

Q: When I spoke with Joe, he told me that he finds it hard to tell his guitar parts from yours on the new record. To him, this is a good thing – he likes it all to sound like one guy.

Brad: "I think that's because we've learned so much as players from each other. Our techniques and approaches are really quite different: The way we create music, the way we analyze it, the way we hold picks in our hands, or what we choose to play as far as notes – stuff like that."
