Should ve Done An Outtakes Collection - The cover is basically a knockoff of Def Leppard s outtake compilation Retro Active. Why couldn t they instead (or in addition) have knocked off the idea behind Retro Active?This DOES include two outtakes from the Pump and Get A Grip sessions, and both are worthwhile. But if Aerosmith had to fill a contractual obligation as is obvious here, why not just make a full CD of outtakes, rather than yet another unnecessary best of? Anybody who would be interested in the two new songs already has everything else here, and anybody who is looking for a greatest hits CD would be far better off with Oh Yeah or better yet, with Greatest Hits, Gems, and Big Ones.And while quite a few outtakes from their early years were released on Pandora s Box, the outtakes from the later period (besides the two here) still await release.This gets three stars just because the music is so good, but it s better heard elsewhere. I m not finding a (legal) download for this on Amazon or on iTunes -- perhaps it s Sony s way of forcing you to buy the whole album if you want the two outtakes. But other than those two tracks, I can t think of anybody who really needs the rest of this.
Aerosmith hits - Love the cd because I have always loved Aerosmith!! One song isn t like I had heard it, but it is only one song!! Good buy!!
An Alright Comp, But Unnecessary... - Had I known about it at the time, I would have bought O Yeah! instead. But when I bought this back in August of last year, I was satisfied with it mostly. I was surprised (being even a casual fan) that it not include Come Together or anything from Get Your Wings, luckily I found a copy of the other album, bought Come Together off iTunes, and I m happy. That being said, it s complete madness that it even exists. There are PLENTY of budget Aerosmith comps, don t get this. Get O Yeah! instead, it s a damn near perfect overview of Aerosmith s entire catalog so far.
Aerosmith Rocks!! - This is a compilation of the best of Aerosmith s hits. I absolutely love it! This CD is a must for die-hard fans.
I love this - I am buying this & this is so good! Like, crazy is like a different style than the other great songs. & what it takes is more of a style of difference. back in the saddle is sooooooooooooo cool rock music.Mama kin has grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat guitar. I dont wanna miss a thing is so good. cryin , well, you get the good rock part, but it is so confusing because they change it to sad parts in the chourus (and some of the verses...........) The song i hate is sedona sunrise.devils got a new disguise it is preety good. Rocking, but in the back of my head, there is something that is really pizarre, much of a difference.Last child is a cool song. in the beginning it is kind of weird.Dream on is ok. But weird. Walk this way is preety good. Run dmc messes up the rock of aerosmith. Love in a elavator is pretty good. But when they say hoh hoh in the chourus, it is kind of weird. My fave song is jaded. livin on the edge is good. My second fave song is sweet emotion.janies got a gun is good.
