Boston. I can still listen to Boston. Aerosmith... No.

Dreamboat Annie.

But since that's not a choice I'll go with Rocks because it rocks.

Not a tough decision for me at all. Rocks was a tough, nasty album, and easily Aerosmith's best. Their Stones-meets-Steppenwolf sound of the '70's was never showcased better than here.

Every song on Boston's debut sounds either exactly or practically the same, and the album was way overplayed on FM radio and still is. The guitar and keyboard mixes also sound very dated.

I am fairly sure I read in the British Classic Rock magazine maybe upwards of 10 years ago now that Steve Jones of the Sex Pistols saying that he liked Boston's More Than A Feeling although I believe he got some flack from some old skool punks after stating that.
