Rocks
They'd soon crash, and hard, thanks to their own excesses. But Rocks captures Aerosmith at a crazily driven peak of creativity; anyone who heard it and continued to dismiss them as mere Stones clones was just being willful. This is blues rock cranked up to '70s stadium level, the sound of the Trans Am, or maybe the Porsches several of these guys (surprisingly) remember driving. The psychic battering they would succumb to on the next year's Draw the Line is foreshadowed in Joe Perry's "Combination," but he and Steven Tyler also celebrate the rock-star mythos on "Lick and a Promise." The party-fueled tension, the tension-fueled party. --Rickey Wright more

- Please give me new Aerosmith.
Old Aerosmith is for old farts, atleast with New Aerosmith you get to here talent, originality, and timeless classics.For good new rock, please check out Stained, Creed, Nickelback, and Limp Bizkit.

- AEROSMITH'S PINNACLE
Hands-down best effort ever, more consistent than the previous Toys in the Attic. If you were limited to just one of their albums, this would have to be it, no doubt about it. Too many highlights to praise, but since no one else has...

Aerosmith's 1976 album, "Rocks", is just one of those albums you dont come by that often. Its one of those albums you can listen too over and over like, "The Beatles Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band", "Jimi Hendrix Are You...

- ROCKS ROCKS ! (Aerosmith's most decadent album moves fast and never lets up)
Ya gotta hand it to Aerosmith's Rocks (1976). The decadence and debauchery is non-stop, and the Bad Boys from Beantown never even come up for air on this one. This thing rocks harder and faster than anything they have ever done. The...

- Good music but I couldn't bring myself to give it five stars
I get the feeling that the members of Aerosmith got together, decided to see if they could produce a mediocre album, and that Rocks was the result. Don't get me wrong, I like this CD. My Liking Scale is similar to Amazon.com's star...
