To preview the rare collection – which also includes early versions of ‘Somebody’, ‘Walkin’ The Dog’, ‘Mama Kin’ and ‘Dream On’ – Aerosmith shared the ’71 recording of ‘Movin’ Out’ on their official YouTube channel yesterday (November 17).

The track was later re-recorded for Steven Tyler and co’s 1973 self-titled debut album.

“The landmark early recording was made with Joe Perry’s Wollensak reel-to-reel tape machine in 1971 by Mark Lehman,” an official description reads, “who owned the infamous van and became Aerosmith’s one-man road crew, either in the band’s Boston rehearsal room in front of a few select friends, or at a rehearsal the band did during a soundcheck for an early show.”
