The title of this album still cracks me up. The latest thing that amuses me about it is the hope that they would do a cover of "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" but changed to "Honkin' On Bobo's Door."

David Fricke of Rolling Stone magazine... considers the album to be overdone, which is what Aerosmith is good at.[11]
lol at the Wiki entry, but I agree. Blues tributes like this or The Stones' Blue & Lonesome just make me want to play the original versions.

Ha, had totally forgotten about Bonkin' On Hobo, which I've never seen anywhere. Agree that overdoing is what Aerosmith were good at when they were good, but also bad at when they were bad, ditto the Stones, who could learn from and lift, folk-process Muddy Waters-type slide guitar, but also combine it with Watts beats, whichever-Stones falsetto, all the other parts Jones put in, then the right hired hands, incl. London Boys Choir, in his wake, with Jagger sounding totally into it, though"it" incl. perfectly crass, sincere, deadpan, corrugated-stylized (liked to tell interviewers that his name came from thieves with knives, like pursejaggers I guess). Bad Boys vs. still-cheeky Fab Four, like Aerosmith vs, Bee Gees in film of Sgt. Pepper's. Andrew Loog Oldham's liner notes in droogspeak. Pre-Baraka Leroi Jones quoted a friend, "At they sound like English crooks."But more effective with what was tagged per se blues in with r&b, rock, etc., than when they came back with whole old man albums of blues. They were better when learning from their own club era set list, basically (and of course Robert Johnson, like others of the "songster" era, is now said by some to have had to mix it up, to be a traveling jukebox, to get gigs). Suspect I'd think the same if I listened to this album.
