Steven Tyler has exposed his wished to record new album with Aerosmith but he and Joe Perry aren’t singing the same tune.

“I don’t know where he is, but just come down to L.A. at the end of January sometime. I’ve had enough downtime,” Tyler tells Rolling Stone.

In recent the relationship has been tense despite touring together for longtime.A previous attempt to record the band’s first new release since 2001’s “Just Push Play” stalled.

Singer Steven Tyler said: "We're having trouble getting Joe [Perry]. I don't know where he is." Given Perry has publicly criticised Tyler for joining the American Idol judging panel, he's probably still sulking (Rolling Stone).

Tyler believes Aerosmith can move past its current problems and the issues his “Idol” role raised.
