iTunes Review

After reinventing themselves with 1987’s multiplatinum Permanent Vacation, Aerosmith solidified their comeback with 1989’s Pump. Perhaps spurred on by collaboration with songwriting pro Desmond Child — who brought the band its biggest-ever hit in “Dude (Looks Like A Lady)” — Joe Perry and Steven Tyler restore their songwriting partnership with a newfound confidence and focus. “F.I.N.E.” and “Love in an Elevator” blend the band’s mid-‘70s strut with the big hooks of ‘80s arena rock, while “Janie’s Got a Gun” is a Tom Hamilton-Steve Tyler collaboration that became one of the band’s most unusual and enduring songs. On the lighter side, “What It Takes” is a sequel to “Angel” from Permanent Vacation, and begins a tradition of sentimental power ballads that would carry the band’s career well into the ‘90s. Although Permanent Vacation heralded Aerosmith’s reinvention, it was Pump that solidified their relevance. This is the album that proved an old band could learn new tricks, and find new fans without sacrificing their old ones.

Customer Reviews

Can we say underpriced?

Amazing album, and I know my Aerosmith. (I own 200+ songs by them.) This is the album that turned me on to America's Greatest Rock and Roll Band many years ago. It has a loud, bluesy feel that heralds back to their roots. Joey Kramer really kicks some tail on the drums, especially on Young Lust. And of course, Tom, Joe, and Brad are spot-on as always with a powerful, driving groove. One of the last times that guitarist Brad Whitford wrote with the band and a great, heavy song- Hoodoo/Voodoo Medicine Man. The lyrics range from raunchy (F.I.N.E., Young Lust, My Girl) to powerful (Janie's Got a Gun- written in response to the country's child abuse). The boys take on a country flair in What it Takes, which proved that Aerosmith is a truly versatile, multitalented band. And as always, Tyler's vocals are the cherry on top. He adds just the right amount of innuendo with his tongue-in-cheek lyrics, clever word plays, and sexual rasps and screams. This album truly rocks and gets way less credit than it deserves- I'd sell it for double the price they're offering it for. An album for fans of great rock and way better than Aerosmith's Permanent Vacation; if the only Aerosmith song you like is I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing, then I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this is not for you. :) But... if you like the old school Aero, like Rocks, Toys in the Attic, etc.- this is the closest you can get with what iTunes is currently offering. Hope this helps... Rock on, kids.

Pump kicks butt!

I use to listen to this album on my walkman every day as I rode the bus to school. This is such a classic album and every song from beginning to end rocks! It's not just the hits on this record, it's the non hits that make it worth every penny.

Aerosmith's Best?

"Best" is a very subjective word; but I can say that of the several Aerosmith CDs I own and the many more I've heard all the way through, I enjoy this CD the most of all their collection (including greatest hits). It's one of those rare CDs that you can put in, hit play, and listen to straight through without hitting the "skip" button. 1987's Permanent Vacation, to me, sort of marked the beginning of a new era for Aerosmith, a resurgance following their emergence from detox, and that CD spawned the hits Dude (Looks Like a Lady), Rag Doll, and Angel. While Rag Doll had more of that old Aerosmith groove, the other two laid the formula that Aerosmith follows to this day, which was really at its best on Pump. Love In an Elevator and What It Takes correspond pretty directly to "Dude" and "Angel," but beyond them and the other radio hit, Janie's Got a Gun, Pump maintains its infectious groove and stick-in-your-head hooks with lesser known -- but just as rocking -- tunes like Young Lust, F.I.N.E. and Monkey On My Back. My Girl is probably my least favorite track on the CD, perhaps tied with Voodoo Medicine Man, but both are listenable and just sort of meld into the start-to-finish experience that is made all the more consistent by the little filler tunes between most of the songs (Water Song, Hoodoo, Dulcimer Stomp...) It also holds a special place in my collection personally, because it is the first CD I ever bought, selling over 300 vinyl albums a few weeks later...
