On this day in 1989 Aerosmith released their tenth studio album, Pump. The record was their third effort since reuniting earlier in the decade, and arguably their strongest album since their mid Seventies heyday, boasting massive hit singles like “Love In an Elevator” and “Janie’s Got a Gun.”
The tour for that album saw the band play the Monsters of Rock festival at Castle Donington in the U.K. on Aug. 18, 1990. During Aerosmith's performance, Led Zeppelin legend Jimmy Page came up onstage and joined them for two songs.
Two nights later, Page joined Aerosmith again at an intimate club show at the Marquee in London. Together, Page and Aerosmith ripped through a thrilling mini-set of Jimmy Reed’s “I Ain’t Got You,” the Yardbirds’ “Think About It,” Jimi Hendrix’s “Red House” and Led Zeppelin's “Immigrant Song,” before finishing up with a raucous “Train Kept A-Rollin’.”
Check out the electrifying five-song set above.
