Aerosmith's New Album is called Honkin' On Bobo

We need a ilx listening party for this gem

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.

Honk honk
Honkin' on a bobo

We're all Bobos on this bus.

stankin' on hooba

lol

I bought this for my Mom on Mother's Day. I remember taking it home and actually looking at the cover and being like "oh..."

honkin on oh no

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.

Dow’s on the bennies again

72 bobos in paradise
and I honked them all

Honking Upon a Bobo
Bobo Honker
See My Bobo All A-honking
Take This Bobo and Honk It
Time to Honk (on a Bobo)
Oh To Be Honking on a Bobo
Walking, Talking, Bobo Honking
The Bobo That Got Honked On
Honking Bobo Style
One Honk, Two Honks, Three Honks on Bobo
Can't Get Enough of that Sweet Bobo Honk
Never Saw a Bobo I Wouldn't Honk On
Honktown, Population: Bobo
Bobo Honkers Unite
Honk That Bobo, Baby
We Want Bobo Honk
I See a Lot of Bobos but I'm Not Hearing Any Honking
Love to Honk on Bobo

Bobo Kept a Honkin’

anybody try Joe Perry’s Rock Your World Boneyard Brew Hot Sauce?

“Honktown, population: Bobo”
LOL

Go on, take the bobo and honk

Still love Some Dude's old dn, "underrated bobos I have honked".

some bobos can't be unhonked

i posted that in an unrelated thread three years ago but i thought it needed to live here too

when you honk long on a bobo, the bobo also will honk on you

I associate this album with Joe Perry’s “Boneyard Brew” bbq sauce

do not ask for whom the bobo honks; it honks for thee

Woah, let's go
But I'm Gerald and I can always have just what I want
She's that baddest I would love to flaunt
Take her shopping, you know Yves Saint Laurent
But nope, she ain't with it though
All because she got her own dough
Boss bossed if you don't know
She could never ever honk on bobo

One Too Many Honkin' Swift On Bobo Goodbye

because i could not honk on bobo
he kindly honked on me

i honked the bobo less honked by,
and that has made all the difference

in 2024 they'll release a 20th anniversary edition of this album, a two-disc set entitled 2 honks 2 bobos

so much depends
upon

a steve honked
bobo

down on a
muffin

beneath the white
covers

just five bobos honkin' in a room

Before the Honk, On Bobo

I am sitting
In the morning
At the diner
On the corner

I am waiting
At the counter
For the man
To honk the bobo

When a bobo meets a bobo, honkin' through the rye

ask not what honking can do for your bobo
ask what bobos need to be honked

"and she's honkin a bobo...in heaven"

A king has bobo, and then he honks. It's inevitable. That is the natural order of things.

how many bobos must a man honk on
before you call him a man?

"I was hon-kin' when I met you, now I'm bo-bo to forget yewww..."

"Girl, before I honked you, I was B.O.B.O. fine..."

"You can't honk me 'cause the bobo done died...
(yes it did!)"

One Too Many Honkin' Swift On Bobo Goodbye

this album title has ruined Nick Cave's "Knockin' on Joe" for me

Honk honk honkin' on heaven's bobo

i was honkin on a bobo in a cocktail bar

Till honkin bobos wake us, and we drown

honkin' on a bobo
i know, i know it's serious

I come not to bury bobo, not to honk on him

Bah. I come to bury bobo, not to honk on him.

But honk! What light through which yonder bobo breaks?

Double, double honkin on bobo trouble

bobo, i was born to honk

Will no one rid me of this honksome bobo?

because the honk
belongs to bobos
because the honk
belongs to us

I'm not waiting on a bobo,
I'm just honking on a friend.

Will the world honk in the daytime, I really bobo,
Or will the world honk in the nighttime, I really bobo.

I got a letter from the government the other day
I opened and honked it, it said they were bobo

She seems to have an invisible bobo
She reaches in, and grabs right hold of your honk

Every little thing she honks is bobo

Now I wanna hear my track, are you honkin' that?
'Til the windows crack, I'll be (honkin' that)
No, I never bobo, don't sleep, don't eat
Just do it on repeat, keep (honkin' that)

you're gon honk if bobo made it

whereof one cannot honk, thereof one must be bobo

we always honk in a bobo stance

(we always bonk in a hobo stance)

Yeah, here come the bobo
YOU KNOW HE AIN'T GONNA HONK
