Few albums have been so appropriately named as Aerosmith's 1976 classic Rocks. Despite hard drug use escalating among bandmembers, Aerosmith produced a superb follow-up to their masterwork Toys in the Attic, nearly topping it in the process. Many Aero fans will point to Toys as the band's quintessential album (it contained two radio/concert standards after all, "Walk This Way" and "Sweet Emotion"), but out of all their albums, Rocks did the best job of capturing Aerosmith at their most raw and rocking. Like its predecessor, a pair of songs have become their most renowned -- the menacing, hard rock, cowboy-stomper "Back in the Saddle," as well as the downright viscous funk groove of "Last Child." Again, even the lesser-known tracks prove essential to the makeup of the album, such as the stimulated "Rats in the Cellar" (a response of sorts to "Toys in the Attic"), the Stonesy "Combination," and the forgotten riff-rocker "Get the Lead Out." Also included is the apocalyptic "Nobody's Fault," the up-and-coming rock star tale of "Lick and a Promise," and the album-closing ballad "Home Tonight." With Rocks, Aerosmith appeared to be indestructible. ~ Greg Prato
One of the reasons why Aerosmith, after a number of creatively lean years, are still given legendary credence and an eager ear with each new release, Rocks encapsulated the very essence of rock 'n' roll. They may have been the target of detractors who still pinned them as nothing more than a poor man's Rolling Stones, but Rocks pioneered a strength and swagger and real depth that remains very nearly unsurpassed. From the slowly escalating 'Back In The Saddle' to the dying strains of 'Home Tonight', this album held the full spirit and soul of Aerosmith in both hands.Rolling Stone (12/11/03, p.136) - Ranked #176 in Rolling Stone's "The 500 Greatest Albums Of All Time"
Q (4/01, p.92) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...The one that made them the daddies honking, humping American rock. Contains great, self-congratulatory opener 'Back In The Saddle'..."

5 stars Top 10 Hard Rock albums of ALL TIME
This is not only Aerosmith's zenith in terms of song writing and delivery, but it stands as one of the best albums ever! Back In The Saddle is not your routine hard rock thunder and has never been duplicated. Last Child is hard rock funk blues and the rest of the album is killer riff after killer riff. Listen to Tyler and Perry's dual vocals on Combination -- a very underrated song. Bottom line is that every rock star on the planet will tell you what this album means to them. It is a must have for any rock fan.

5 stars SLEAZY, GREASY BOOGIE ROCK
This is the best Aerosmith album--Hard driving hooks and druggy grooves that drive deep into your head-- then those fantastically loose but pounding lead guitar runs and riffs come---Wow! I had this back in '75 and it still astounds in 2002--Every song rocks--It was so down and dirty that only "Last Child" made it to the radio with any consistency-- One of the top 5 best rock records of all time
