every inch of it ROCKS
Not as much as Rocks, but I'll allow it.

Love the ASmith revival on ilx but I just can’t make time for this one with so many others more worthy of examination

somewhat agree, band is mostly hard rock stones/blues by numbers at this point.but Tyler's voice out of the gate...

Joe Perry is pretty down on this album, based on reading his memoir. He thinks it wasn't recorded right or something.

Movin'Out is a riffy jam. Always loved how it went into the spacey groove then built back up.

think i'd agree with perry; while i think these songs are all good to great, the sound is flatter than the jack douglas records, way less dimensional
btw as much as i agree that toys and rocks are the best albums in the world, come on, even when they were more directly emulating their influences i still hear something very special going on here (and, beyond that, get your wings is basically on the level of toys imo)

Rocks is so much better than Toys...

They shouldn’t always be equated like they are

Toys has the title track and Adam’s Apple. The rest can bugger off
