Aerosmith


Aerosmith - Aerosmith.jpg

As iconic as Aerosmith have come to be, they had to start somewhere.

Aerosmith is the band's debut album, released in January 1973.  In 1976, Aerosmith reached No. 21 on Billboard 200.

(Refer to Wikipedia for a full background)

Initial reception of the album upon release was rather poor.  It was not reviewed in Rolling Stone magazine.  "Critics compared the band unfavorably to the Rolling Stones..." (Wikipedia)

On the other hand, Aerosmith was claimed to have been an influence on Guns 'n Roses.

Aerosmith Certifications -
Platinum in Canada
2x Platinum in the U.S.

"Dream On" is by far the most recognized song by Aerosmith...and this is where I will leave off.
