3.0 out of 5 stars Not the best compilation at this point . . ., July 15, 2002

First of all, if you are looking for the BEST compilation of Aerosmith's "second coming" (the Geffen years, 1985-1994), then I would recommend the two-disc "Anthology" (2001), which includes all the songs here, digitally remastered, and some other good tunes that did not make the hit lists. If you want to go further into that era, I would then recommend "Permanent Vacation" (1987) and "Pump" (1989).

Second, if you are a passing fan looking for the BEST compilation of ALL of Aerosmith's music, I would recommend the newly-released "Oh . . .", which contains many of these songs remastered, the early classics ("Dream On", "Walk This Way", "Sweet Emotion", etc.), and hits from the records that were released after this compilation ("Don't Want to Miss a Thing", "Falling in Love", "Pink", "Jaded", etc.)

4.0 out of 5 stars Is the new Aerosmith really that different?, October 29, 2004

By 

Brian Dickson (Perth, Scotland) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Big Ones (Audio CD)

Um, is anyone else confused here? People talk about the "new" Aerosmith as being a ballad band and glossy, shiny pop. I've listened... and listened.... and listened. What I hear is the gritty hard rock band of the 70s with a *somewhat* greater emphasis on ballads, and on some songs a *somewhat* more polished feel. Some seem to find this reason to damn Aerosmith to everlasting hell. I don't. But to my ears I cna't honestly say that the "old" and "new" Aersomtih are really all that different. I bought Permamant Vacation when it first came put in 1987 and I never thought it was that different from their 70s material. Haven't Aerosmith always done ballads? And isn't Uncle Salty kind of "poppy"?(Who cares, the song's great anyway!)If anyone else is confused about the supposed existence of the evil "teenybopper" Doppelganger of the new Aerosmith, please click "yes" below. I personally like all Aerosmith phases. And this time at least, I like the Amazon review!

5.0 out of 5 stars livin' on the edge, March 7, 2000

I think this is one of the best music videos I've ever seen. It has their best from '87-'93. Here's the lowdown for people who don't know what's here: 3 hits from "Permanent Vacation", 4 hits from "Pump", 5 hits from "Get A Grip", plus a special video made for the collection for "Deuces Are Wild" from "Beavis & Butthead Experience" CD. I can't wait 'til Geffen gets off their a** and puts this collection on DVD. The downside to the collection is it don't have the (bar)video version of "What It Takes", "Walk On Water", or "Blind Man" with Pamela Anderson playing the nurse.
