After a stint in the Boston club circuit, under the tutelage of their manager of the first time, Frank Connelly, the band began working together with New York managers Steve Leber and David Krebs. In 1972 they signed a recording agreement and debuted their first album. It was followed in 1973 by Get Your Wings. Toys in the Attic. Rocks. And Draw the Line. These albums have helped Aerosmith gain international recognition. These albums were the inspiration of iconic hits like "Dream On", Walk This Way, and "Sweet Emotion". Aerosmith's early five albums were all multi-platinum. Toys in the Attic and Rocks are considered as some of the best hard rock albums ever. As the decade progressed, however, the band's busy schedule of touring, recording and living together started to wear the band down. Because of their famed use of stimulants and heroin, Tyler and Perry were often referred to as the Toxic Twins. Aerosmith Behind the Music as well as many video releases of Aerosmith illustrate their bond. Tyler was more committed to Aerosmith and appeared to dislike Perry's aloof attitude. Perry, however, was jealous of Tyler's choice for women she dated. The tense dynamic between Tyler, Perry, and their once-friendly girlfriends was key to the decline of Aerosmith around 1980.
