Aerosmith at thier best
Not that they havent had some other fine lps, This one is strong from start to finish. This is the only Aerosmith record that I give a five star rating to. It doesnt contain a lot of material on it by todays standards, but no filler at all here. how you say "no filler all killer" .


Great sound
This remaster has more solid bass. I love the sound on here compared with the original. The overall sound is clearer. I highly recommend this cd if you are an Aerosmith fan.


Great rock n roll
Every song is a winner, but "Seasons of Wither" is one of the very best classic hard rock songs ever. For my money, this early effort is Aerosmith's finest record. The Aerosmith of the 70s was the epitome of arena rock and remains enjoyable even today.


Gritty Second Release
This release, produced by Jack Douglas, provides the a more intimate depiction, as Whitford and Perry's sounds are cleaner, showcasing their talent. Their first album, "Aerosmith", received critical acclaim, but lacked the engineering quality necessary to capture the band's sound accurately. The Brecker Brothers yacking saxes and horns add so much to the rock and roll classic sound, especially on "Same Old Song and Dance" and "Pandora's Box" a witty sexual lyrical play. Mood songs like "Spaced" allow a different view of the band's imagination and orchestration with an interesting use of effects on the introduction. The release contains a version of the Yardbirds' "Train Kept a Rollin'" which is still a staple of the band's live show. This version starts in the studio, and after the drum roll in the middle, segues into a live rave up version. Songs like "Lord of the Thighs" are perfect vehicles for Tyler's witty sexual word play. This is a quantum leap from the first Aerosmith release, allowing the boys more artistic license to show off their talents.


A flawless 70's hard rock recording.
This album is probably definitive proof of how great they actually were at that time, with their 'peak' period being I'd say 1974-1976 IMHO and of course one of few precious mementos of excellent music from that era (still got my vinyl copy, haha). It's a shame how totally and utterly useless this once great band are today. 'Get Your Wings' is as about as flawless an HM or hard rock recording you will find by any band anywhere! All songs contain A-1 guitar work, vocals and everything else. ALL tracks are quality stuff. If you're an Aerosmith fan - and I mean a fan of the REAL AEROSMITH - pick this one up on remastered CD with absolute confidence (probably along with 'Rocks' as well) and enjoy a prime example of what made seventies hard rock music so great.
