In addition to the new sounds I try to listen to I have a back catalog of acclaimed records that I also make my way through. This one I actually listened to years ago as part of this “catalog” listening project. I make a point to take every record for a second spin eventually (except in the rare cases where a record is truly terrible). Toys stands out as a universally acclaimed classic rock record seperare from the sleek 80s and 90s Aerosmith that a 40 year old like me grew up with at an impressionable young age. It’s hard to shake the MTV Aerosmith image… of course I remember Janie’s got a gun and the cassette of Get a Grip was one of the first albums I ever bought!
