Yeah it's Honkin On Bobo alright.



I gotta agree with more than just sappy ballads post 1970's Aerosmith. I mean for instance....GET A GRIP (from 1993) was and still is a very good and listenable album with maybe 2 sappy ballads and good sappy ballads to boot.



Then ya have Pump (1989)....also another pretty kick ass album in it's own right



And before that one the comeback album Permanent Vacation.


I mean I definitely agree that by the time Girls Of Summer came out Aerosmith had gone all to hell....even they said the record was a piece a shit. Just Push play had some pretty kick ass songs on it so I let it slide but Girls Of Summer was too much. I thought for sure we'd lost em by then. Then they decide to do Honkin On Bobo....I read all about it in Guitar Magazine and I gotta say I'm still very intrigued by them doing an actual blues album with the original Aerosmith style of the 70's....sadly I was born in 84 so any albums they had before 89 (with the exception that MTV didn't have as many videos back then so they were still playing videos that were 3,4,5 years old) I hadn't heard any older Aerosmith albums other than what my parents had and played for me when I was a kid. I remember the first time I heard Dream On (having been used to the raspier voice he started embracing more over the years) I thought it was Queen singing it cause his voice is just SO much clearer back then than it is now...at least on that song. Well I went off subject yeah they had plenty of great albums in the 80's and the 90's....it's once 2000 kicked in that we started seein less rock n more pop.

Asta!!
