Cons: Not Enough Like It
Okay 1973's 'Aerosmith' contained "Dream On",Steve Taylor's first hit for the then new band.It has a soft,sudtle shading missing on a lot of harder edged later Aerosmith.But the REST of this album?Enough to change my whole opinion of the band.I always thought of Aerosmith as something of a singles act but 'Aerosmith' keeps up a great pace.Other then the hit this is Joe Perry's album-it all has crisp production and great guitar leads and vocals from Perry.His most famous here is the dynamic "Mama Kin".My two personal favorites are "One Way Street" and the old chestnut "Walk The Dog"-both lay bare the heavy blues roots in Aerosmith's music and feature great grooves.And BOY does "Write Me A Letter" groove too with a nice shuffle to it.And if you don't think this album rocks too check out "Movin' Out" and "Somebody".Th
is Aerosmith were not afraid to be musically interesting and not just retread old clishe's like they do now.This album is why a lot of people liked Aerosmith so much in the first place-great bluesy lead guitar,nice rock 'crunch' and a little funkiness in the groove.And here they keep it up for the whole record to.VIVA JOE PERRY!!! ...

Pro Reviews: Aerosmith
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Over the years, Aerosmith has voiced dissatisfaction with its 1973 self-titled debut. While the songwriting may not be as exceptional as future releases, and Steven Tyler's singing style wasn't fully developed yet, the album succeeds on the band's raw, loose and bluesy performance. The now legendary quintet was unfairly labeled as a Stones/N.Y. Dolls rip-off at the time, but Aerosmith was more technically proficient at their instruments than the Dolls, and was much more hard rock-based than the Stones (i.e., Led Zeppelin, Yardbirds, etc.). Aerosmith spawned one of the first true rock ballads ever, the reflective "Dream On" (a hit single when re-released in 1976), while the rocking "Mama Kin" was one of the band's best early anthems, receiving further attention after Aero-disciples Guns N' Roses covered it on 1989's G N' R Lies. Other tracks, such as "Make It," "Somebody," "One Way Street," "Write Me," and "Walking the Dog" serve as the perfect snapshot of the young band finding their foothold, while the oft-overlooked, long-and-winding storyteller, "Movin' Out," remains one of Aerosmith's all-time best. Aerosmith is one of their most underrated records. - Greg Prato, All Music Guide |
