Few comebacks in rock and roll history have been as amazing as that of Aerosmith. Their triumphant return to the charts in the 1980s not only rekindled the band's earlier success, but also significantly surpassed it. With their top 20 hits "Dude (Looks Like a Lady)", "Ragdoll", and the top 10 power ballad, "Angel", the group proved they had even more fire left in their fight than anyone could have imagined. Leaving behind its reckless lifestyle, the band sacrificed none of their rowdy rock and roll. "Ragdoll" and "Love in an Elevator" built upon Aerosmith's raunchy blues approach to hard rock, complete with singer Steven Tyler's howl in the best form of his career. Big Ones includes these rockers along with the spooky Grammy-winner "Jamie's Got a Gun", and the slower but still hard-edged "Crazy". Other high points of the new and improved band are reflected in "The Other Side" and the anthem "Eat the Rich". --Steve Gdula
