Steven Tyler has never met Simon Cowell, but thought he was mean the first time he watched him on Idol.

He didn’t want to take the Idol job at first, because he thought artists should do, and fail in the clubs. But he wonders where Jessica Sanchez gets her voice. Just going through the gauntlet of Idol is an education in itself.

They also talked about golf, music, the new Aerosmith album and at the end, Steven won the Golden Harmonica!

    I caught this last night and had to wonder where this “chatty” Steven Tyler came from. He talked almost non stop which is a real feat to get Craig to stop talking. He never used the word beautiful even once… Steven must be really reined in on the Idol shows because most of what he says on AI is useless filler. Glad to see a better side of him.

    Gosh, I just love Craig Ferguson! They totally had amazing chemistry going plus Craig totally got what Steven was saying at any given point of time… even the rambly bits, and he was genuinely interested and is probably anyway at least as crazy as Steven. Wonderful interview!

    well put.

    It was a really good interview where he actually had stuff to share about all sorts of things in his experiences.

    I don’t think there were any platitude sort of answers and he added answers to better questions when pitched a softball question

    I was very impressed with Steven’s “Old Susanna” on the harmonica.  Yes, he was very chatty indeed!  What was that all about?  heh 

    It was quite fascinating though.

    Thanks mj!

    Craig Ferguson has publically stated on many occassions that he is also an active 12 step member of long standing and I feel certain he and Steven have had lots of personal time spent together over the years.

    WOW!  That was entertaining.  Why isn’t that Steven appearing on American Idol?

    The AI execs had really turn him as a bore; if only they let him be himself.
