Thanks to Tyler & Perry's ground-breaking collaboration with Run D.M.C. in 1986 (on Aerosmith's old hit, "Walk This Way"), the band's visibility was high. The rehabilitated band took advantage of that opening with this album, a batch of hard rock songs that recalled their glory days of the 70s. |
| | Artist Overview | | A hard-rocking, no-holds-barred American group fronted by the wiry Steven Tyler, Aerosmith plays heavy riffs with a blues underpinning. After huge hits and sold-out tours in the 1970s, the band sank into oblivion for the first half of the '80s. They returned on the crest of Run-DMC's version of "Walk This Way" in 1986, and rode back up the charts with their rehabilitated rock, cranking out slick videos to gain a new generation of fans. Having hitched their star to MTV, they took on the role of rock's elder statesmen. |

| | Professional Reviews | | Q (4/01, p.92)
- 4 stars out of 5 - "...Cleaned-up band make real 'comeback' album, thanks to Bon Jovi's songwriters penning some hits and MTV introducing the band to Bon Jovi's fans."Kerrang (Magazine)
(p.51)
- "Tyler and Perry not only tapped back into the love of music and performance that first inspired them, but suddenly felt so alive that their collective cup spilled over with excitement and productivity." |
