The group recorded their debut album at Intermedia Studios in 331 Newbury Street, Boston, Massachusetts with record producer Adrian Barber. For the most part, the production is sparse and dry – two guitars, bass, drums, a singer, and occasionally piano – but the most remarkable feature of the album is how different Tyler sounds compared to the albums that followed. In his autobiography Tyler recalls, ”The band was very uptight. We were so nervous that when the red recording light came on we froze. We were scared shitless. I changed my voice into the Muppet, Kermit the Frog, to sound more like a blues singer.” In 1997 the singer told Stephen Davis, ”Yes, I changed my voice when we did the final vocals. I didn’t like my voice, the way it sounded. I was insecure, but nobody told me not to.”Tyler added that producer Adrian Barber was ”good for his time” but it was like ”being with a retarded child in there, and I’m not sure if it was because he was so high, or because we all were.”In his autobiography Rocks, Joe Perry is more critical of Barber:
Our producer was practically useless. He had little input. When I heard the playback, I kept thinking, ”We’re better than this. We should sound better than this. We’re being recorded wrong. We sound fuckin’ flat.” But because I lacked the studio chops to prescribe a remedy, I kept quiet. It pained me, though, that my guitar was not cutting through ... There’s magic on it, but just not the magic that I had envisioned.
Bassist Tom Hamilton later confessed, ”The album was done so fast I barely remember anything but overdubbing some tracks and running to the bathroom for a hit of blow”.Perry reflected, ”We were uptight, afraid to make mistakes ... We were total novices with no idea what to go for.”The collection also includes a cover of the Rufus Thomas hit ”Walking the Dog,” also covered by the Rolling Stones on their first LP.
