Aerosmith - As usual the transaction for this item through Amazon was painless and efficient. The product was recieved a day BEFORE it was due. As it was exactly in the condition as descibed. I recommend using Amazon for anything that is hard to find, because some how they manage to have extensive amount of resources with a wide varity of items. Thanks again for a great transaction, I will be back!!!
A foretaste of greatness - Firstly Aerosmith is no classic debut and it is not the best Aerosmith album to start off your collection with. The production is thin, the band are uptight (especially noticable in Tyler s vocals). However, there are nuggets which give us a taste of what a terrific band Aerosmith are to become. There is the rocking classic, Mama Kin and the still golden Dream On. The excellent Somebody rocks your socks off and the Yardbirds influenced One Way Street is first class and you can t stop tapping your foot to Movin Out. This is not a great album, but is a good one and well worth a listen.
Strong Debut! - A very strong debut from one of America s longest tenured rock n roll outfits. Aerosmith plays some straight up rock on this record, that would serve as inspiration to generations of hard rock bands to come after. They haven t reached their song-writing glory days, yet, and Steven Tyler s vocals haven t quite found that fantastic screech, but all the ingredients are here for a great rock band.
There has to be a first - This is one of the finest debut albums I have heard and it was my first Aerosmith album. I wore grooves in it and love the guitar play in it and it is my third favorite Aerosmith cd (after Toys and Rocks). It also is worth while to have around in your collections.
The toxic twins at their greasiest and best - So what if the recording sounds lousy. This is the rawest most crudest and best rock & roll Aerosmith has ever done. Energy and songs is the priority over quality. I love the sound of Perry s old amp(probably a 50 s Fender champ?) sound like the tubes are dying at the beginning of Somebody and they left it in for posterity! Perfect.
