Amazon.com essential recording
Originally released in 1975, this was Aerosmith's breakout recording. Listeners only familiar with their more recent, post-comeback material may be surprised; like their other albums from the 1970s, Toys has a strong blues inflection, as indicated by their cover of "Big Ten Inch Record," which also shows that Aerosmith has never lacked raunchiness or innuendo. There's also the original (pre-Run-D.M.C.) version of "Walk This Way," and the classic "Sweet Emotion." This is classic Aerosmith at its gritty, streetwise best; they may have been derivative, but it really doesn't matter, then or now: it's all in good fun. --Genevieve Williams

 perfect gift October 24, 2008
T. A. Branam (Pinehurst, Texas United States)
Although it came with a cracked case, I didn't have time to return before my husbands b-day, but he loved this and hasn't taken it out of his car since, it's been a long time since we heard a lot of these songs

This was the one cd I did not have in my collection. As usual the songs were all GREAT. The sound quality was very good. I have enjoyed listening to this cd many times.

Wanted Aerosmith represented in my collection, but I think the live album might have been a better bet. This one just gathers dust.

Second on the all time greatest Aerosmith albums list to the irrepressable ROCKS, Toys In The Attic saw the boys from Boston take flight and craft one of the all time classics of hard rock.It's most well known tracks are the uber cool "Sweet Emotion" and genre spanning "Walk This Way" which have been enduring radio staples for years. The album tracks are just as good. "No More No More" is a fantastic song detailing life on the road with great instrumentation, arrangement, lyrics and delivery with just a touch of sentimentality that makes the song one of the band's best. The album shows the band acknowledging their influences as well, "Round And Round" is Aerosmith at their absolute heaviest sounding with a thunderous Zeppelin riff while "Adam's Apple" is very Stonesy and would have fit perfectly on Sticky Fingers.The title track leads off the album and is a storming opener with great guitars and that classic repeating chorus "TOYS,TOYS,TOYS...IN THE ATTIC!". A must have for fans of hard rock pick this up with ROCKS today!
