Joseph Michael "Joey" Kramer (born June 21, 1950) is the drummer for the American hard rock band Aerosmith. Kramer was born in The Bronx, New York City. His memoir, ''Hit Hard: A Story of Hitting Rock Bottom at the Top'', was released on June 30, 2009. Kramer married his girlfriend Linda in 2009. They currently reside in Georgetown, near Austin, Texas. A powerful drummer, Kramer has been known to amuse concertgoers during his drum solos by striking the drums with his arms, legs, toes, elbows and even his forehead. Kramer is credited with originating the name Aerosmith. In his memoir, Kramer revealed that he idly conceived the name Aerosmith while listening to Harry Nilsson's album ''Aerial Ballet'' in 1968, two years before the band was formed. Kramer insists that there is no connection between the name "Aerosmith" and Sinclair Lewis' novel ''Arrowsmith''. Shortly before joining Aerosmith Kramer worked with Chubby & The Turnpikes (later to be known as Tavares) alongside Bernie Worrell. He made a guest appearance in the 22nd season of ''The Simpsons'', in the episode "The Ned-Liest Catch", as a former partner of Bart's teacher Mrs. Krabappel, as told in the 3rd season episode Flaming Moe's, which featured the whole of Aerosmith, the first ever band to guest star on the show. In 2015, Kramer tweeted about how he had been made into a Simpsons action figure. In June 2011, Kramer did a fan Q&A and revealed his open-mindedness to outside writers, stating he does not care about it as long as it's all 5 members of Aerosmith playing the material written. In 2013 Kramer announced his new partnership with Comfort Foods, Inc. who now will roast, package and distribute his whole bean, organic coffee line: (Rockin’ & Roastin’ Coffee ). ==Aerosmith songs written== ''The following Aerosmith songs have a writing credit given to Joey Kramer:'' # "Pandora's Box" from ''Get Your Wings'' # "Kings and Queens" from ''Draw the Line'' # "The Hand That Feeds" from ''Draw The Line'' # "The Hop" from ''Done With Mirrors'' # "The Movie" from ''Permanent Vacation'' # "Krawhitham" from ''Pandora's Box'' # "Beautiful" from ''Music From Another Dimension!'' # "Lover Alot" from ''Music From Another Dimension!'' # "Can't Stop Lovin' You" from ''Music From Another Dimension!'' # "Closer" from ''Music From Another Dimension!'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joey Kramer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
