Well, my mom will be excited! LOL. Aerosmith has reunited with Jack Douglas, who produced the band’s key 1970s albums, and quietly recorded a new studio album. Steven Tyler said Aerosmith was finishing two final songs for the as-yet-untitled album, its first since 2004’s “Honkin’ on Bobo,” and that he expected it to be released in about three months.

Joined Wednesday by Joe Perry, Tom Hamilton and Joey Kramer at a Los Angeles mall, Tyler revealed three track titles: “Legendary Child,” `’Beautiful” and “Out Go the Lights.” Earlier in the week, the band announced that its 18-stop US “Global Warming Tour” begins June 16 in Minneapolis.

“We will not let you down,” Tyler told reporters and cheering fans.

The “Idol” judge is engaged to model Erin Brady. Asked in an interview about what will be his third marriage, Tyler joked: “I cannot stop falling off stage and falling in love.”
