In commemoration of the 50th anniversary of their landmark album Get Your Wings, four-time GRAMMY® award-winning and Diamond-certified Boston rock legends Aerosmith today announced the release of a Limited Edition vinyl via UMe/Capitol out May 17. Limited to numbers 1-1974 to honor the year of the album’s release, the collector’s item is pressed on 180g custom color “gold sparkle” vinyl, housed in an embossed gold foil jacket. Each copy is uniquely numbered with gold foil and encased in black poly-lined sleeves, preserving the quality and sound of this iconic album. Inside, fans will find a 70’s-era Aerosmith logo sticker and a replica of a vintage ad, adding to the nostalgia of this celebratory release. The Limited Edition of Get Your Wings can now be preordered HERE. Listen to the original classic album HERE.

The launch is accompanied by a new, expansive Get Your Wings merchandise and apparel collection, available day-and-date with the vinyl. This collection features newly reimagined items that embody the spirit and legacy of Aerosmith during the era of Get Your Wings, celebrating the album’s monumental anniversary. To view the collection, visit the band’s official online store HERE.

Get Your Wings is not only RIAA Triple Platinum-certified but also marked the band’s first collaboration with producer Jack Douglas who went on to produce the next three albums for the band and was instrumental in shaping the sound that would define Aerosmith for decades. Recorded at New York’s Record Plant and launched with a tour that started at The Orpheum Theater in Boston on March 9th, 1974, Get Your Wings solidified Aerosmith’s place in rock history with 74 shows across the US.

Product shots can be accessed HERE and cover art is available for download HERE.

Celebrating their 50th anniversary, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame members Aerosmith have sold more than 150 million albums and streamed billions of times around the world, produced genre-defining music videos such as “Amazing,” “Crazy,” “Janie’s Got A Gun,” “Livin’ on the Edge,” and “Love in an Elevator,” and launched extravagant record- shattering global tours, most recently with their smash hit Las Vegas residency. The band has broken numerous boundaries, including becoming the first rock band with a massive commercially successful hip-hop collaboration with Run-DMC on “Walk This Way” and the first hard rock band to appear during a Super Bowl Halftime Show with their 2001 performance, and in 1999, Aerosmith became the first band to have their own themed attraction at Disney World in Florida and later Paris with the launch of the Rock ‘N’ Roller coaster starring Aerosmith.
