Big Ones - Aerosmith

Essential Listening? You bet. The best of... which this album essentially is, except for the two new tracks WALK ON WATER and DEUCES ARE WILD, shows some of the best from "The quintessential rock band of all time". If you haven't heard of Aerosmith then this is the place to start. WALK ON WATER is the lead track collaborating Joe Perry's dirty rhythm and Steven Tyler's vocal acrobatics and this is built on throughout the album. LOVE IN AN ELEVATOR ...
...blues swagger, the unforgettable DUDE LOOKS LIKE A LADY, and the hard hitting JANIE'S GOT A GUN are only the first few tracks on the album. CRYIN,CRAZY and AMAZING noted for the Alica Silverstone and Liv Tyler Videos are complimented with beat driven EAT THE RICH and THE OTHER SIDE. The beautiful ballad ANGEL is as strong as all of these songs and the album ends with a thought provoking LIVIN ON THE EDGE and a live version of DUDE. Aerosmith songs ...

Review of Big Ones - Aerosmith

Aerosmith Big Ones is not just an album, it's a classic. Released in 1994 it contains some of their more well known tracks from the late 80's to the early 90's. The songs range from "Love In An Elevator" to the thought provoking "Blind Man". I am surprised that "Walk This Way" with Run DMC is not on this album as it was the song that revived their career in the 80's. They are now without doubt one of the biggest rock bands today and "Big ...
...add this to your collection, if you haven't this is the best one to start off with. It may be old now but it's still on the shelves and will remain so for a long time. ...

Review of Big Ones - Aerosmith

this is the first cd i ever bought. and i never looked back. this single purchase taught me so much about music. it taught me to delve deep into back catalogues and find hidden gems to treasure. quite simply, you need this album. you don't know it yet, but you need this album. the songs are brilliant, tell me, in all seriousness, that you are never in the mood to hear Dude (Looks Like a Lady) or Eat the Rich... they are classic songs. but the great ...

Review of Big Ones - Aerosmith

This is a fat album. It contains some huge tunes which will knock you off your feet. This is mainly due to the compelling guitar sound and the wailing vocals. The songs are mostly up beat and in your face (love in an elevator, rag doll) but there are some more sentimental ones ‘cryin’). I like this a lot and there are very few weak tracks on the album. Livin on the edge shows the delicacy of some of the guitar work whilst the final track is a hard ...
