American rock band Aerosmith has released 15 studio albums, nine live albums, 16 compilation albums, two extended plays, and 72 singles. Aerosmith was formed in Boston, Massachusetts in 1970 by vocalist Steven Tyler, guitarists Joe Perry and Ray Tabano, bassist Tom Hamilton, and drummer Joey Kramer. Tabano was replaced by Brad Whitford in 1971. Other than a period from 1979 to 1984, this lineup has remained the same.[1]
Twenty-one of Aerosmith's songs have reached the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 and the band has long been a stalwart of the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, achieving nine number-one hits on that chart to date. An additional 28 of the band's songs have reached the top 40 on various charts worldwide. The band has achieved four multi-platinum singles ("Dream On", "Sweet Emotion", "Walk This Way", and "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing"), while an additional eight singles have attained silver, gold, or platinum certifications in various territories.
Aerosmith is estimated to have sold well over 150 million albums around the world, making them the biggest-selling hard rock band in United States history.[2] As of November 2021, the band has sold 69.5 million albums in the United States in terms of certification units,[3] and 31,702,000 albums since 1991 when SoundScan started tracking actual sales figures.[4]
