70's Aerosmith was fire. Hard to beat their first five albums. You would have to look high and low to find a bad tune. Dive into that era of Aerosmith and you won't be disappointed.
@jaquestraw1 I hear ya. IMO, that album had about 5 real good rocking tunes and 4 fillers. Too be honest I didn't really like "Walk this way" off the Toys album. Maybe it was due to the massive overplay on AM radio, we'll never know. After the whole run dmc collaboration it kinda became lost it for me. I really liked the "Get Your Wings" and "Rocks" albums. Their first album Aerosmith which was released, then pulled and re-released after walk this way brought them some notoriety was vastly overlooked. My first concert was them as headliner with Bob Seger, Jeff Beck, Black Oak Arkansas and Poco, July 4th 1976. Miss those days, simpler times and people hadn't become so open minded that their brains were falling out.
As a Brother✊🏿 from the Boogie Down Bronx, (59 years old) I was a big fan of Aerosmith. They had a funky groove to their rock thing. Way before Aerosmith collaborated with RunDmc, the drum intro to “Walk This Way” was cut and scratched at the hip hop club. Plus the original song is way better than that watered down rock/HipHop collabo!!! Yea I said it!!!😂😂
yo - did you know that Steven Tyler's dad taught math at Cardinal Spellman HS in the Bronx! Concourse and 184th here for this 59 year old white boy! The cool thing about the Bronx was you could rock to Aerosmith and I could rock to Stevie Wonder and no one cared cause everyone understood!
The first album I ever bought with my own money was this album in 1975 when I was 8 years old. I heard Walk this Way and was hooked. The follow up album Rocks (1976) is Aerosmith’s masterpiece.
…….mine too, Lechmere department store, got to the first section “A’s” (Aerosmith) look down, saw the cover, “Toys In The Attic” less than 2 min. of looking, mom drove me home and listen to that album 2 weeks straight everyday. And that was the beginning of my obsession with collecting Vinyl ! (1975) 15yr old me , great memories 🔥🎸🔥
Toy in the Attic and Rocks are my two favorite albums of theirs, and I got them both first on 8-Track tape; wore them out. Every time I listened to these two albums, and especially Rocks, on headphone I heard new sounds in the mix.
The old pregnancy test The rabbit was injected from cells of the woman and they killed it and dissected it to see if it responded If ovaries were large Then woman was pregnant
Yeah, but it's based on a misnomer, as all the rabbits tested died, not just the bun-in-the-oven positive ones. In Aerosmith's defense, though, the misnomer was widely (mis)used.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, 70s Aerosmith is the absolute best version of the band. It’s when their music was vital. The song writing during this era was incredible and iconic.
There musta been something in the water back then because the catalogue of great music across all genres was inspired by something. It's uncanny how so many different musical minds from so many different backgrounds and influences could create such a wide variety of musical gold. Sadly it went south a few years later, never to recover.
@@MoMoMyPup10 Yep. There was still good music in the 80s and I liked some of the grunge stuff when that was all the rage, There’s still good music today although it’s getting lost in an ocean of information, diamonds in the waste. I’m in complete agreement though because the late 60s and the entire 70s saw an unprecedented burst of musical creativity and excellence that I fear will never return sadly. Less people bother to learn their instruments now and with AI it certainly looks bleak.
@@itsmedrooms6071 Definitely agree. The 80's as a decade overall was good, but where it trended turned out to be a bad thing. Techno seemed to turn the whole industry artificial and uninspiring. And much of it didn't age well at all. Then lip sync and autotune destroyed everything.
1978 Winnipeg. My very first concert ever. My dad took me as Aerosmith and AcDc and the Stones were my first favourite bands. Honestly, from my memory, ACDC blew them outta the water. I remember when Aerosmith came on they were not same energy and everyone was chanting ACDC Acdc. Great memories of great music.
Emotion? Sweet REACTION. I liked seeing Che groovin like he was around 4:08 especially, heh! "Love in an elevator" is another one of theirs with raunchy lyrics and even raunchier riffage. "Toys in the attic," the title track of the album here, is pretty mind-blowingly good. "Dude looks like a lady" is fun, and y'all prolly have heard it before. "Rag Doll" is another great funky one from their "sober" incarceration. "Back in the saddle" is a classic from when drugged-out Joe Perry and Steven Tyler were dubbed "The Toxic Twins."
Love how different this song sounded from anything out at that time. Still holds up today. "Can't catch me cuz the rabbit done died"'-- daddy in a police car, girlfriend lied-- I always thought he was singing about a pregnancy test. Anybody else get that message from Sweet Emotions?? It's a banger!! 👍🏼 Right on!
This is such a big banger. The intro is so awesome, and then you’re just waiting for that first “SWEEEEEEEET”.Probably Aerosmith’s finest moment for me at least, and they had a LOT. Glad y’all dig the dirty on this.
A couple more good ones from that album are; Round and Round__No More No More. My first concert was 1978 - Cal Jam 2; Aerosmith headlined it. I was 15yrs9mos, was there for more than 26 hours, my older brother got lost around noon...just before Santana played, and I hitch-hiked home (after Aerosmith) from the speedway to San Berdoo. I was hollering "anyone going to Berdoo?" and someone said "come on, we are." They lived just a few blocks from me.
Ahh the old days I was only 12-you would never ask anyone for a ride now that’s for sure. My wife and I both say we were born 5 years too late. Missed zeppelin-and Floyd in their prime and tons of other 70’s bands.. first show was RUSH in 81..
That sound you thought was a clap I believe Steven Tyler said was ripping paper...And the maraca sound at the beginning is a sugar packet! Nice job guy's!
I think it’s an interview with Howard Stern, but Steven Tyler mentioned forgetting to bring his maracas and just told the sound guy to turn the gain on the mic all the up and used the sugar packet like you mentioned. Also, in the beginning of the song, there’s a vibraslap that’s played three times but the third slap it broke. The just ran with it and left it in.
One of the most fun songs to play on the drums, right up there with Carry On Wayward Son by Kansas. Sidenote: Aerosmith's first big hit has been a highlight of their live set for nearly 50 years.
Boy! Steven Tyler has some crazy vocal talent. I remember buying this album. My uncle took me to town after we finished putting up our last barn of tobacco, and he took me to the record shop (which was actually the Schwinn bike repair shop & automotive repair shop, combined) but they sold records in the back of the shop. I had to wait in line, but I was so excited when I got this record. I went home and immediately put it on to play. lol What great memories, thanks fellas for reacting to this one. We appreciate you. 💖 Here's another song that I'd suggest, if interested. *"Aerosmith - Walk This Way (Audio)" (channel: Aerosmith)* --This song was written by Steve Tyler and Joe Perry and is the second single from their 1975 album "Toys In The Attic." It peaked at number #10 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was a part of a string of successful hits from the band.
You worked hard for that record 😆 No telling how much of my tobacco barning money went to buying albums and 8tracks. I think we probably listened to this album on a car stereo while we were taking out a barn. The farmer we worked for would let us listen to music when we were doing that.
Growing up in the north of Boston Aerosmith were always the go to band. Drinking, fighting, jamming out and loving the ladies. There were around a hundred of us partying hard on the railroad tracks at midnight. Joe Perry even lived in the city at the time. You would see him renting movies with his girlfriend and he always said hi. Such good people. The Bad Boys from Boston Aerosmith.
They went to the studio with some INTENT that day!!! NICE ONE!! Probably my favorite by these guys. This and the entire first album. I seen these guys 7/21/1978 and AC/DC Highway To Hell tour opened for $12. Though Iconic and legendary, still underrated to me especially lyrically. Steve Tyler wrote DREAM ON when he was 14. Stack that with the rest and MAN!! Quite the catalog. Thanks Guys!! Peace 🕊️☮️♾️😎
Aerosmith's rhythmic beats and changes were always a good fit for Rappers to sample. Their tempo on Walk This Way was a big reason for RUN DMC to sample and give Aerosmith a shot in the arm for being part of a new generation of music. Everybody gotsta get paid.
You can't go too wrong with most anything from the first 4 albums from these guys, in my opinion. For some of the best American made chainsaw-sounding raunchy barroom rock-n-roll, these guys have done it for me since Junior high. For an added bonus, some of "Live bootleg" kicks ass too. Keep up the good work fellas.
GREAT ALBUM!! LOVE the title cut!! SO GLAD ya'll are diving into Aerosmith!! Particularly their older stuff: ROCKS!! I still like their later stuff - but, this is FIRE!!!! HUGS, GUYS!!
I was in high school from 1977 - 1981. The music that came out in that time frame was phenomenal. What an auditory delight my young self was devoted to. I know this was a little earlier, but we listened to that too
yea like alot of us ..... the quintessential rock n roll album. 2nd LP I ever bought. Even has my favorite 'smith song YOU SEE ME CRYIN' written by Steven about his daughter (actress) Liv when she was a child.
I was fourteen in 1975 when that Album (Toys in the Attic) came out. My friend called me up and told me to come over because his mom bought him the Album. Still to this day, one of my favorites. 😎🤟🏽👊🏽
70s Aerosmith is dope Aerosmith! They came out swinging and rocking big time, enough to impress Jimmy Page. Please do more of them back in the day, The Seasons of Wither is another amazing track. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎶
I'm 62 years "young" and when I was in H.S., you couldn't go to a house party without "Toys In The Attic" blasting and us "bumping and grinding", I have been to hundreds of concerts and Aerosmith is a band that is a regret for me. I just never caught them in time...
Bassist Tom Hamilton and Singer Steven Tyler wrote this tune, hence the Bass lead at the beginning. Saw Aerosmith for the first time about three weeks after the album "Toys In The Attic" was released. And, of course, they played most of the songs at the show, including this one. Got a great response from the crowd. Over all, a GREAT show.
As a teen in the 70s, if I pulled up anywhere that was kickin out some Aerosmith jams, I knew I was at the right place. Check out 'Seasons of Whither' sometime. You'll dig it
I was 5 years old when this album came out; I remember going with my neighbors/babysitters to buy it. I always loved the name & cover of this record and wanted to hear it. Thank you & nice review, as always, guys. Take care 🙂
@sebastianblack6506 yep, it's true. I have always loved and been a big fan of music. Between my babysitters, my family, and Philadelphia radio, I feel lucky to have heard many genres of music in my life. You take care 🙂
@maxbrazil3712 you're right. We had radio and print media that were influential back in the day. Now, not so much. Good new bands are out there, but you have to search high & low to find them. Because we still have college and good rock radio stations in Philly, I do get to hear new music. It isn't the same as we had growing up and feel bad for kids today. You take care 🙂
My friends and I -- and an occasional disc jockey -- always wondered what Joe Perry left in the studio the day they recorded this song, cuz he was just hitting his stride on his outro guitar solo when the song faded out. Keep the tape rollin', Aerosmith !! "They went into the studio with some intent that day." Ya got that right. And they intent-ed many more times, too. Aerosmith may be one of the least mentioned of the greatest R&R bands in the 70's. At least in regards to their first 4 or 5 albums. This song and Walk This Way are beyond a doubt two of the most iconic songs in rock history.
Love the old school Aerosmith..Kings and Queens,Nobody's Fault,Last Child,Train Kept A Rollin, Seasons Of Wither, Mama Kin and Major Barbara. Could go on and on. My favorite band.
70's Aerosmith was fire. Hard to beat their first five albums. You would have to look high and low to find a bad tune. Dive into that era of Aerosmith and you won't be disappointed.
Agree!
Wasn't to crazy about Draw the Line, but the four before were 100% bangers

70s Smith = High scool memories. Soo miss those days
70's Aerosmith is just phenomenal.
"Can't catch me cuz the rabbit's done died" - how many folk get that line?
Please explain.
Old fart here, so….
The old pregnancy test The rabbit was injected from cells of the woman and they killed it and dissected it to see if it responded If ovaries were large Then woman was pregnant

I..know..because I'm old😂
Toys in the Attic is solid gold from end to end. No bad tracks on this entire album.
Early Aerosmith It's a Classic!! You guys are Great Reviewers!
Great song. Great reaction. This whole album is amazing.

Two of the best albums in history.
Stay Cool 😎 and…
\m/ Stay Metal \m/
'Train kept a coming' & ' Lord of your Thighs' should be on your next listen list
Seasons of Wither, too!

Yup. I think that’s lost on younger reactors.
I always figured that's what it meant..
Yes. He got the girl pregnant.
Kids today don't know what a "rabbit test" is. 😂
Yep! And I learned about the rabbit pregnancy test (only way to do it way back when) from an episode of MASH!
"One Way Street", "Movin Out", "Mama Kin", "Dream On"... The 1st record will always be my fav.
I love "Uncle Salty" from this same album. So many good songs on "Toys".
That one is an icon for sure. Definitely jam that one in the younger years!
I have seen Aerosmith 8x....from the 70's to the 90's. Seeing this song live....was their best guitar & drum jamming song....❤
❤

Round and Round is hypnotic!
Best Aerosmith album ever imo!!!
Sooo much groove and swag in early Aerosmith.
One of the greatest intros of all time
Stunningly good album. Review the entire thing.
My favorite Aerosmith song of all time! I loved the Toys in the Attic album.
BARS before BARS were BARS...for sure.
Cheers!
I have been a huge Aerosmith fan since the ‘70’s when I was in high school!!
Reverse hands claps sound so cool.
"They went to the studio with some intent that day." Well said, sir!
As a huge fan of the 70's here's another example of how phenomenal that decade was. Aerosmith of the 70's is Aerosmith.
Great reaction gentlemen.

Anything from the movie Dazed and Confused is a hit
That’s what I was thinking too
Geezes that Bass line!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Still melting my brain after 47 years
Every song from this album is great from front to back.
This song got overplayed on the radio. Have not listened to this in a long time. Sounded great. Great reaction fellas. Appreciate you 🙏 ❤❤ 3:17
Aerosmith's rhythmic beats and changes were always a good fit for Rappers to sample. Their tempo on Walk This Way was a big reason
for RUN DMC to sample and give Aerosmith a shot in the arm for being part of a new generation of music. Everybody gotsta get paid.
I'm 68 and still rock out cooking to it!!🎸🎸🎸🎶🎵🎸🎶🎵🎸🎶🎸🎵🎶🎸🎤🎤🎤🎤🎸🎸🎸🎤🎤
Since you mentioned Walk This Way....well, that's Aerosmith's song, to and Run DMC honoured them with the cover duet.
I've said for years, one of the first RAP/ HIP HOP records ever made. Structural and lyricly...
This is an album worth doing for sure. Their best ever imo
It's hard to pick my favorite Aerosmith song, but this one is definitely way up there. One one of their best.
I love the way the vibroslap breaks.
Oh man taking me back to when I was 16.
Damn, I got old in the last 48 years.
One of the greatest rock bands in history. You have to check out "Back in the Saddle."
You can't go too wrong with most anything from the first 4 albums from these guys, in my opinion. For some of the best American made chainsaw-sounding raunchy barroom rock-n-roll, these guys have done it for me since Junior high. For an added bonus, some of "Live bootleg" kicks ass too. Keep up the good work fellas.
Really need to do every song from this album. Toys in the attic. Get your wings and Aerosmith‘s first album. Also incredible!
GREAT ALBUM!! LOVE the title cut!! SO GLAD ya'll are diving into Aerosmith!! Particularly their older stuff: ROCKS!! I still like their later stuff - but, this is FIRE!!!! HUGS, GUYS!!
I was in high school from 1977 - 1981. The music that came out in that time frame was phenomenal. What an auditory delight my young self was devoted to. I know this was a little earlier, but we listened to that too
"Toys In the Attic" was ubiquitous in '75. Everyone was down with this one.
One of the ALL TIME BEST ALBUMS
Great song, great album. Early Aerosmith is the best!
This is their song for me. It’s just a banger!
I love watching you two review great 70’s rock!!
Those first four albums are pure Aerosmith, ass kicking funk, rock, soul. What came after was a very watered down version of the same.
yea like alot of us ..... the quintessential rock n roll album. 2nd LP I ever bought. Even has my favorite 'smith song YOU SEE ME CRYIN' written by Steven about his daughter (actress) Liv when she was a child.
I was fourteen in 1975 when that Album (Toys in the Attic) came out. My friend called me up and told me to come over because his mom bought him the Album.

Great tune. And production. Kudos to producer Jack Douglas as well as the band.

Love your reactions. Introduce yourself and the song. Then straight into reaction. Love it.
KISS
Keep It Simple Stupid!
First song I learned on guitar as 12 year old.....time flies
I took my son to see Aerosmith about 20 years ago for his first concert ever. Pretty damn good for his first concert if you ask me!
Love the old school Aerosmith..Kings and Queens,Nobody's Fault,Last Child,Train Kept A Rollin, Seasons Of Wither, Mama Kin and Major Barbara. Could go on and on. My favorite band.
Blasting this driving with my girls in high school! A great song!
