Stop crying...
I seem to recall a story where Joe Perry didn't even know this album existed until a fan shoved it in front of him to sign. Look, Greatest Hits albums are inherently cash grabs by the record studios. That said, I'll always have a soft spot for Aerosmith's Greatest Hits, as it introduced me to the band (on cassette, no less) and it made me want to dive deeper into the catalog. Sure, the radio versions offered here are shorter -- once I bought "Toys in the Attic" I was shocked at "Sweet Emotion's" treatment here. But now that I've got the full version on a billion different comps and the original album, I'm actually pretty glad to have something different here. .


Don't buy it.
Its like the cd was copied without it. The beginning of sweet emotion is missing.


For the money, it's a great buy
If you're new to the band or if you want the very best of the early stuff then this is a great buy. OK, so the songs are edited, but what do you expect for the price? You shouldn't pay more than $8 for this CD, and if you end up paying less then you got a great deal. You get all of their hits and even the last song "Remember (Walking In The Sand)" is not a bad song at all. Everyone reviewing this CD must remember that Columbia Records went for the radio hits and nothing more. Also, this CD was not approved by the band as they were fighting way too much to be involved in this project.

If you have all of the albums after Permanent Vacation, and would like to get familiar with their 70's stuff, then this is a nice introduction to their pre-1980's days.

Aerosmith-Greatest Hits
The sound was FANTASTIC!!!! I have greatly enjoyed listening to this cd many times. I was very pleased with the song selection of this cd.


Reasonable collection
Their best songs are here, but not all of these songs should be on a best-of. I'm not a HUGE Aerosmith fan. A bigger fan would give this a better rating, probably.
