"While recording the 1975 album “Toys in the Attic,” Boston rockers Aerosmith took a break to see Mel Brooks’ comedy “Young Frankenstein” at a Times Square movie theater. Back at the studio, the band had a good laugh over how actor Marty Feldman greeted Gene Wilder at the door of the castle and told him, “Walk this way,” while limping — and giving Wilder a cane so he, too, could walk that way. It sparked the idea for a song title, and singer Steven Tyler set about writing lyrics in a studio stairwell."
