But it is Aerosmith, so I got the album and gave it a listen. I haven’t been all that impressed with a complete Aerosmith album since their 1989 release Pump. Eh, it was ok…Not too sure about the chorus. Well, I checked them out on the Today show appearance where they played one of the new songs from Music From Another Dimension. They are America’s Greatest Rock n Roll Band, the Bad Boys from Boston – Tyler, Perry, Whitford, Hamilton, and Kramer. The stories are legendary – the in-fighting, the drugs, the women, the rise and fall, the clean up, the comeback, more in-fighting, more drugs. I saw pictures in Hit Parader and Creem magazine of Tyler and Perry – aka the Toxic Twins. I grew up in the 70’s listening to classics like Sweet Emotion, Walk this Way, Last Child, and Train Kept A-Rollin. What is this? Jack Douglas? Producer of such classics as Get Your Wings, Toys in the Attic, and Rocks? And Johnny Depp wrote a song with Steven Tyler for the record? Well, surely this could be interesting….as in disastrous or great, who knows? But then I heard that they were using Jack Douglas as their producer.

Their last studio effort, Honkin on Bobo, was not my cup of tea. I will admit that when I first heard earlier this year that Aerosmith was putting out a new album of original material that I was a little concerned.
