5 out of 5 stars What a deal!.......2005-11-15

What a deal. You get the very best of the worlds greatest rock and roll band Aerosmithat the height of their carear in the 1970's and a classic live album of the band from the 1980's and all together for a pretty low price, what a deal!

This is Aerosmiths great hits from 1973-1987 (not 1988!!!) and you get it all. 'Dream On' 'Walk This Way' 'Let The Music Do The Talkin' its all here. Every song on the album is a classic. The original greatest hits left off over half of these songs. No 'Let The Music Do The Talkin' 'Mama Kin' 'Lightening Strikes' (even though it wasnt really a big hit). And it also had poor edits on 'Kings And Queens' and 'Sweet Emotion' cutting off the classic intros and killer jams at the ends of the songs. Well this version still does that but it is still good.

Aerosmiths Classics Live is also included here. While this is not one of Aerosmtihs best live recordings its still a Aerosmith classic and is essential to all Aerosmith and rock and roll collections. Some songs were recorded with Joe Perry and Brad Whitford and some are with out and have Rick Dufey and Jimmy Crespo playing guitar, while that is my biggest complaint because Joe Perry is my hero and I dont think you can have Aerosmtih with out Brad Whitford and certainly not without Joe Perry, as I am sure most will agree. My other small complaint is these are bad selections, I mean Steven is really high and the band isnt really tight, they could have been better but they were all high or drunk or both. But these small problems dont bother me too much because I still think this is a great live album from Aerosmith.

So to conclude this is a great deal you get Aerosmtihs best and Aerosmith live, for the average fan you couldnt want more, but as a hardcore fan like myself I must recomend to you that you buy all the bands albums as they are all truly fantastic with the exception of Rock And A Hard Place, which is still pretty good in itself.

5 out of 5 stars Better then the original!.......2005-11-06

The original Greatest Hits by Aerosmith released in 1980 was anything but. Most of the songs that were hits for the band were left off, and the songs that were on the album were not the Greatest hits by the band, they were the right songs, but the wrong versions, remixes, and alternate edits totaly ruined the album.

'Sweet Emotion' and 'Kings And Queens' both feature amazing intro into the songs, especially 'Sweet Emotion' because of its amazing bass line. Those two intros were left off the album and the songs were made shorter. Whats more is 'Sweet Emotions' closing jam/guitar solo was also edited out. Whats up with that.

With only ten songs the original didnt satisfy diehard Aerosmith fans like myself. Songs like 'One Way Street' and 'Big Ten Inch Record' but here they have all the bands greatest hits from the 1970's and 1980's until 1987. The album says untill 1988 but its until '87 because 88 was when 'Dude (looks like a lady)' 'Angel' and 'Rag Doll' came out. So this more then makes up for the bad original compalation.

For Aerosmith fans there is nothing better then this band, and this collection does the best job of showing the band in its peak form before the quite drugs. Highly recomended!

5 out of 5 stars Influential American Rock 'N' Roll. 'Nuff said........2005-03-18

Huh, first one to review this. Here goes...

I think it's pretty safe to say that everybody and their mother know who Aerosmith are. They've all heard "Don't Wanna Miss A Thing" and "Jaded" enough times. And, of course, Steve Tyler is a celebrity in his own right. But (at least most) classic rock/70's music fans can tell you that back in the '70s, Aerosmith was KICKIN'. Don't get me wrong, their later stuff is good, but, honestly, it's hard to top the classics featured on this set.

And if you want foot-tapping, groovy, funky rock and roll (they don't make 'em like that anymore), look no further than this compilation. These songs are classics; the powerful ballad "Dream On" that skyrocketed Aerosmith to fame in the early '70s, the funky riff-laden "Walk This Way" (this is the original, obviously, sans Run DMC), their take on the Beatles hit "Come Together", the hard-drivin' "Back In The Saddle", et cetera, et cetera, and, of course, both versions of one of the best songs ever recorded - PERIOD - "Sweet Emotion". Track 5 is the watered down version (still decent), but Track 16 is the REAL "Sweet Emotion"... ohh man. Trippy intro, funky beat, ROCKING riffs... THIS is what rock 'n' roll is all about (you listening, Breaking Benjamin?)!

Yeah... this is a great introduction to classic Aerosmith. Although this is listed as an import (and a pricey one at that), you can buy this and "Classics Live!" as a two-set at most American record stores for a reasonable price. Check it on out.

"A-just gimme a KISS!"
