AEROSMITH REVIVE A TOYS IN THE ATTIC CLASSIC LIVE IN BOSTON (2009)

Back in the saddle again on Lost Treasures, to quote the name of the opening song off the 1976 AEROSMITH album ROCKS. The floods in Brisbane has caused a bit of upheaval for me in the past few days, only too glad to be at my No. 1 address in Toogoolawah tonight and laying on my lounge. I just love live albums and live video clips, you not only get to hear great songs but you get to see the band or artist on stage as well, and in the case of AEROSMITH playing live in concert, they really were (and still are) a class act, even if their studio output since the early 90`s pales in comparison to their epic 70`s output. Sometime during 2009, AEROSMITH performed a gig in Boston, Massachusetts which included a reprisal of the classic and underated NO MORE NO MORE, a 'filler' off the band's brilliant 1975 album TOYS IN THE ATTIC, in my opinion the band's best album alongside ROCKS and GET YOUR WINGS in 1974. WALK THIS WAY and SWEET EMOTION are the best songs off TOYS, but beefed up live NO MORE NO MORE rates as one of the great stadium rock songs. I decided to give this live clip a run instead of the studio version because of the 'Boston factor', Boston being where Aerosmith started out way back in 1970.
