Aerosmith reputation suffers because their late-90s and 00s work is goofy and bloated. Steven Tyler fell in love with the power-ballad and resorted to hired-gun songwriters. No wonder Joe Perry got sick of him. However, their 80s and early 90s comeback work is solid, and their 70s pre-burnout work is great. Don't judge this album because of what they are today. Rocks deserves to be recognized as best Aerosmith... it's a great rock album. _________________ Finnegan was super bad-ass.
