Free Music Notes for Toys in the Attic
Free Music Review: I just love this big ten inch...
Hit: 5 Stars
RECORD! If you're looking for the best songs in Aerosmith history, you'll find all of them on the band's 1975 breakthrough, "Toys in the Attic". I've had this album for five years now, and still listen to it at least once a day. Why you ask? Because this album kicks a mountain of @ss! All the songs are awesome, no filler what so ever. You even get the best song Aerosmith ever recorded in their entire career----"Big Ten Inch Record". I mean this song kicks so much @ss, it would make the entire Aerosmith catalogue look like the soundtrack to "Saturday Night Fever"! And the lyrics...I have never heard such gut poundingly hilarious lyrics in my life!
"Got me the strangest woman
Believe me this trick's no cinch
But I really get her going
When I whip out my big ten inch
Record of a band that plays the blues
Record of a band that plays the blues
She just loves my big ten inch
Record of her favourite blues!"
So if you want to hear Aerosmith at their best, go whip out your big ten inch. Record, and play all the songs on it. You will be amazed!

Hit: 3 Stars
Never in the history of rock and roll has there been a band whose reputation has so far outstripped its ability to deliver. Considering that they have enjoyed a thirty-plus year run, the quality (and consistency) of their output has been abysmal. As far as I'm concerned, I could count Aerosmith's best material on my digits while wearing mittens and never taking my socks off, and yet half of the free world treats this band as if they are America's answer to the Rolling Stones. History has proven that it is more appropriate to label them as America's answer to Status Quo, but still their reputation precedes them, and they sell millions. Why? The answer lies with this album. Toys in the Attic is the record that initially promised greatness. It never arrived, but there are enough clues here to recognize the lost potential. In a nutshell, it contains just about everything that I care to know about Aerosmith.
Virtually every other Aerosmith album contains more padding than an overstuffed chair. Even their `Greatest Hits' album is relatively weak, since it is watered down with less compelling tracks from lesser albums, not to mention a reprehensible cover of the Beatles' "Come Together." Even this album has its dull moments, but it also has its fair share of high points - inarguably the highest (figuratively speaking) that they ever got. The title song, "Walk This Way," and "Sweet Emotion" is as good as Aerosmith gets, with flailing guitars, entrancing arrangements and attitude to spare. "Uncle Salty" and "No More No More" also rock hard, in that classic-rock sort of way that Aerosmith is best known for. Granted, "Big Ten Inch" makes me want to gag (if you get my drift), but the balance of the record represents an Aerosmith that ceased to exist almost immediately after Toys in the Attic was released. If you want to spend your hard-earned cash buying up Aerosmith's catalog of fair-to-middling rock and roll albums, be my guest. Meanwhile, I'll satisfy myself with the four or five good tracks on Toys in the Attic, smug in the knowledge that it never really got any better than this. B+ Tom Ryan
Free Music Review: Groundbreaking
Hit: 5 Stars
This is a groundbreaking album. Finally, after few years in Rock N' Roll world and two albums behind them, Steven and boys produced the album that brought them on higher stage. No longer critics dared to say that Aerosmith are Stones Copycats; now they created their own, original style that they followed throughout the 70s, and they won the charts with singles like "Walk This Way" and "Sweet Emotion".
It took me some time to understand the greatness of this album. I used to like "Rocks" better; now I think both are equally great, just a bit different; "Rocks" is basically hard rock stuff; and "Toys" is more variete; it has the rock n' roll classics like the title track, "Sweet Emotion" and "Walk This Way", but also a ballad "You See Me Crying" or blues cover "Big Ten Inch Record".
Toys In The Attic - Short, intense, hard rocker. Great opening to the album. This one kicks ass. 10/10
Uncle Salty - A sad, thrilling song about sexual abuse. Not the one to be ma favourite, but it's good. 8/10
Adam's Apple - I like this song better and better with every time I listen to it. Great rocker about garden of eden. Cool. 9/10
Walk This Way - A classic. Guess everybody knows it from the radio. Filled with incredible riffs from Joe Perry. After years it gets a bit old, but still love it. 10/10
Big Ten Inch Record - Awesome blues cover with a funny lyrics to it. "I whip out my big ten inch... record..." love this song. However if You want to hear the TRUE version of this song, check the one on "Pandora's Box". 10/10
Sweet Emotion - Another classic. Incredible riffing in this one, at the end the song gets another turn. One of Aerosmith's best. 10/10
No More No More - More melodic and softer than the others. This song is really great, but still not enough to give it ten. 9,5/10
Round And Round - A weird kind of metal. I think if other band recorded it, it would be one of its greatest. But it's untypical for Aerosmith. 7,5/10
You See Me Crying - This song tears my soul apart. Sweet ballad leaving You a bit dreamy. This is one of Aerosmith greatest ballads.
A must have album. Guess I don't need to say more.
