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.

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..."

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.

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

brimstead, Monday, 18 April 2022 15:56 (four years ago)

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

tylerw, Monday, 18 April 2022 15:56 (four years ago)

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

flamenco drop (BradNelson), Monday, 18 April 2022 16:21 (four years ago)

For the man
To honk the bobo

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

Michael Flatley's (Sufjan Grafton), Monday, 18 April 2022 16:49 (four years ago)

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

Deez NFTs (Neanderthal), Monday, 18 April 2022 16:57 (four years ago)

"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!)"
