Aerosmith's New Album is called Honkin' On Bobo

Yeah, same thing in Spanish. Kinda like calling someone dopey.

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."

honkin' on bobo

bonkin’ on hobo

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.

"He was in the Amazon with my mom when she was honking on bobos just before she died."

De honk honk honk
De Bo Bo Bo

God bless you for this

I was shocked to learn the other day that Honkin' On Bobo was the first Aerosmith album since Rock in a Hard Place to be produced by Jack Douglas, who did almost their whole 70s run (he was fired from Night in the Ruts).

honkin'
honkin' on the gosh darn bobo
(honk honk, honkin' on the bobo)

The honker of the gods
Will drive our ships to new lands
To fight the horde, sing and cry
Oh Bobo, I am coming

i’m so puerile i’da gone straight at that mfing snow/bobo rhyme

Honkoni plays the bobo, listen to the radio

^ gold

The killer awoke before dawn
He put his bobo on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he honked on down the hall

Let's go.
We can't.
Why not?
We're honking for Bobot.

I don't want to hold her down
Don't want to break her crown
When she says, "Let's honk
I like the nightlife bobo"

Bobo, it's me.
I've thought about us for a honk honk time.

Into the boundary
Of each married man
Sweet deceit comes calling
And negativity lands

Bobo honk
Hard done by you
Some things look better, baby
Just passing through

SLEEP WITH ONE EYE OPEN
GRIPPING YOUR PILLOW TIGHT

EXIT: LIGHT
ENTER: NIGHT
TAKE MY HAND
WE’RE HONKIN' ON BOBO LAND

On the bobo again

Oh, honk an honk, an honk an honk
My bobo keeps moving like a rolling stone

I've Got My Own Bobo to Honk On

And honk you very much
Oh Mr. Robobo
For helping me escape
Just when I needed to
Honk you
Honk you, Honk you
I want to honk you
Please, honk you

Honk Me Tender

Exit light

You can do it, honk your bobo into it
