Product Description

Amazon.ca

Building on the success of the more pop-oriented Permanent Vacation, this 1989 release banished any doubts that Aerosmith's unlikely late-'80s comeback was a fluke of nature--or merely the product of shrewd record company calculations. That Aerosmith could produce a pair of albums to rival Toys in the Attic and Rocks after a decade-and-change of decay and despair seemed all but unnatural. While Vacation's other key players (producer Bruce Fairbairn, outside songwriters Jim Vallance and Desmond Child) are still part of the mix, it's the band's familiar, tough swagger that powers this collection from the get-go. And while the Vallance-Child collaborations ("The Other Side" and the power ballad "What It Takes," respectively) were successful, it's telling that the album's twin pop-rock evergreens, "Love in an Elevator" and "Janie's Got a Gun," originated entirely within the band; the old dogs had not only learned a few new tricks, they seemed bent on tutoring their would-be trainers in the bargain. Pump is the high point of Aerosmith's improbable second chapter--and one of their best albums, period. --Jerry McCulley

5.0 out of 5 stars Aerosmith At Their Best May 21 2004
By Mike
Format:Audio CD
Although Permanent Vacation brought Aerosmith back to everyone's attention, it was not true Aerosmith because of outside writers the the reliance on sappy ballads like "Angel." It was simply not true Aerosmith. Pump, on the other hand, even though it still had some outside writers, was Aerosmith's BEST album. Rocks was great, but had a couple of dumb songs and a crappy power ballad. Great album where a person can listen to the entire thing without using the "skip" button. Imagine how even greater it would have been if "Deuces are Wild" had been on the instead of "My Girl" or "Don't Get Mad." Recommended for all great music fans, not just Aerosmith ones.

2.0 out of 5 stars Goin' Commercial May 18 2004
Format:Audio CD
Aerosmith was one of the most important bands of the 1970's hard rock/heavy metal scene. But in the early 80's, their albums sales began to slip. But the made a so-called comeback in the late eighties. But they completely abandoned the rough, raw sound for a commercial atrocity. They thought they could pull off being a glam band. Believe me, they don't have the looks for it. This ain't even rock anymore. This is just pure commercial pop/rock. This is pathetic. Janie's Got A Gun is okay, but if your'e expecting Toys In The Attic, your'e not gonna get it here.

5.0 out of 5 stars Grade A- Dec 13 2003
Format:Audio CD
This is my favorite cd of theirs. Even all the way thru. No dead wood or filler on this one. The production at times seems a little heavy handed, but that's the feel thru out this cd, is that it rocks, even on the power ballads. The group has always sung about women and rock, but this time they have shown a more mature side to their lyrics, with songs like MEDICINE MAN (about not taking care of earth, etc),& JAMIE'S GOT A GUN (child abuse). A great cd, worth buying.
