Aerosmith Tops the Stone's in U.S. Sale's !

While here in America we've been so busy-and rightfully so-trying to stop
terrorism,averting or surviving the economic meltdown;an amazing occurance
has taken' place in the History of Rock Music."Aerosmith",the band from Boston,
who hit the Bigtime and nearly squandered it all to alcohol and drug abuse-has
surpassed the "The Rolling Stone's" in total U.S. album sales.The band who
recovered just in time,lauched the Biggest Comeback in Rock History-and it
has taken' them to high's Bigger than the Band they most emulated-The Stone's".
"Aerosmith" more than any other rock band-stayed true to the fundemental
Rolling Stone's template.One frontman-Steven Tyler, as the lead singer,
two guitarists,Joe Perry and Brad Whitford,plus bassist Tom Hamilton
and drummer Joey Kramer.I'm sure they never imagined that they might
surpass the Band that seems to have most inspired them-but they have.
To be fair,one has to acknowledge that for "Aerosmith" to achieve this
amazing feat of rock success-a few helper's were called upon-that i would
imagine,in the Bands first round of success-they would never even have
considered resorting too.I speak thier of collaboration with Desmond Child-
the #1 songwriter helper in the Rock Biz.Child's best know credits are
"Bon Jovi's" big hit-"Livin' on a Prayer" and several other Bon Jovi hit's.
His name is sandwhiched between John Bon Jovi's and Guitarists Ritche
Sambora so it's doubtful that any of Bon Jovi fans ever noticed."Aerosmith"
also had one of the biggest hits of thier comeback in "I Don't Wannna Miss a
Thing";a song originally written for Celine Dion by L.A.'s go to Writer for
movie soundtrack songs-Dianne Warren.In "Aerosmiths" hands the song
actually is pretty enjoyable-and Warren never fails to come up a Hit Movie
Soundtrack Song-whenever she is called upon to write one.The song was
featured in the Film "Armagedan" which also co-starred Steven Tyler's
daughter,Liv Tyler.
It must be acknowledged though that these are exception's to the
"Aerosmith's" large catolog of hits and amazing string of Multi-Platinum
Album's.For the better part of thier long and tumultous career Aerosmith
wrote nearly everything themselve's and there are some real top-notch
song's amongst both thier Big hit's and amongnst thier best album tracks.
Here's a few-
1."Dream On"
2."Sweet Emoition"
3."Walk This Way
{Also the Rap-Mix of this song with "Run-DMC" was a gigantic hit}
4."Last Child"
5."Back in the Saddle"
6."Same Old Song and Dance"
7."Kings and Queen's"
8."Jamie's Got a Gun"
9."Dude Look Like a Lady"
10."Make It"
11."Draw the Line"
12."Mama Kin"

Any way you look at it-Aerosmith's come back story is one of astounding
Proportions.They deserve all the accolades that have been presented to them.
They travelled a very rough and rocky road,full of deadly pitfall's and danger.
Not only did they survive-but they flourished.It's a story for triumph over
adversity and one that will allways be one of the more astounding in Rock History.
