Aerosmith Gems CD (439 words)
Before Aerosmith became super commercialized, they pumped out gritty, unique "gems" like we hear on this album.
When I first this album in the Winter of 1989, I was blown away by the power and force that these songs blaired out at me. This was an album full of songs that are not all that radio freindly but yet make you want to listen to them over and over again.
Gems the second greatest hits volume offers more of their classics hard rock edge heavy metal showcase.
