70's Aerosmith
The majority of the songs are from their 70's drug induced stardom. This 3 disc box set sets the standard for raunchy, sleazy, dirty Aerosmith that we all know and love. There are nearly a dozen unreleased tracks and cuts on here, all of which are great. Aerosmith's cover of The Beatles "Helter Skelter" is amazing, it even rivals the quality of the orignal. If you want to know why Aerosmith was so highly heralded in the 1970's, then pick this box set up and crank the volume Aerosmith style. (Which is WAY UP) 5 STARS CERTAINLY.


classic aerosmith at their best
lots of fun unrealeased stuff and new concert clips which all soar. for someone who loves classic aerosmith (from 1971-1982) this box set is simply the best deal you'll ever find! all their best and then some. personally. . . i don't care for their more recent stuff but in the 70's these guys rocked and this box set claims its stake. nothing but good things to say about it. a definate must for anyone curious or some who wants alot of their stuff cheap.
for a mere $10 or $15 more than greatest hits. . . you get ALL their greatest hits. do yourself a favor and buy this. . . like now!!!!!!.


Now THIS is how a box set should be done.
Unreleased live tracks, rarities, well-known favorites and not-so-well-known album tracks. . this is how a box set SHOULD be done! Why can't all artists put it together this way ? With a set like this chronicling the best hard-rock band in America, the only album you need besides this from Aerosmith's golden period of 1973-79 is the superb 'Rocks' album and, perhaps, 'Live Bootleg'. This box set really takes care of all the rest - that's how well done it is. Trust me, all your favorites are here and the stuff you haven't heard before is revealing and fantastic. .


This is one of the best box sets I own!
It's the "hodge-podge" format which as you already know it includes live cuts, demos, originals, previously unreleased, etc. This is a great box set. ANYONE could enjoy these 3 Aerosmith albums but mostly this is an album for die-hard Aerosmith fans or someone that's already into the band atleast on some level.

Are the newer releases remastered? NO! But the 1991 set sounded great to begin with. Like Led Zeppelin's box set in 1990 it was done right to begin with.

That being a given, this set is quite excellent. It focuses on the first 7 albums from 1973 to 1982. Most of the greatest hits sets out there (2 disc sets) focus on the 1985 - 2001 era such as "Gold" does. O Yeah! The Ultimate Aerosmith set has about 1/3 pre-1985 stuff on it. They dedicate about 1/3 to each decade. If the early stuff is your favorite, then this set is the true gold. There are a couple of single discs (Greatest Hits and Gems) which focus on the 70's, but as some of us know there are edited versions of some songs on Greatest Hits.

If you want to get into the early 70's stuff I suggest getting each album, especially now that those are remastered. And they really are. 20 bit. But if you don't want to buy all six or seven of those, this set is the next best thing and you can get it very inexpensively used/new here on Amazon. com Even if you have all of the 70's albums there are 20 previously unreleased tracks on Pandora's Box. So, there is plenty there for the collector or the new fan of 70's material.

Pandora's Rocks!!

this is not just another compilation,It's more than that. well this is of course must have for any Aero-fans out there. . .
With songs and jams that never released before,A different versions for some 70's classics,and a great covers first time release like-"All your love" and the over-the-top amazing version of the band for-"Rattlesnake Shake" by Fleetwood mac.
It's full of all the classics & best songs of the band from the 70's.
If you read the book-Walk this way and after that listen to Paondora's box you will see that Pandora is not a compilation but more like a road-trip with the band through the early 70's to the end of this fantastic decade.
Long live Aerosmith and let the music do the talkin'.
