Yes, Permanent Vacation, Pump, and Get A Grip, in my opinion were the cds Aerosmith 'made the transition' with. They had that MTV crap on those cds, but also had some really great cuts.
Wild7, you're obviously a fan. These are my favorite cuts from those three cds:
Eat The Rich
Flesh
Fever (any time Tyler plays the harmonica, I'm in)
St. John
Hangman Jury
Simoriah
Young Lust (grabs you by the throat)
F.I.N.E (lyrically, Tyler at his raunchy best)
Monkey on My Back
Voodoo Medicine Man
It's no coincidence that these songs are the ones I like best off those cds. These are the ones that evoke visions of Aerosmith past.
As far as vinyl, I have everything Aerosmith released on vinyl up until Permanent Vacation. In a box. Somewhere.

Yes, I'm still a fan and I'm not gonna throw away any of those great classic albums if their next album turns out to be the biggest piece of trash ever!!!Rocks will forever rock...it's sound will never change and the songs you mentioned above, such as Young Lust, Eat The Rich and F.I.N.E. will always be great tunes, ya know?By the way, do ya know what F.I.N.E. really means, because I could tell ya if ya don't...lol?
And to the person saying that Aerosmith was running out of male fans, guess what...I'm all man and
still a fan.It's just disappointing that they couldn't continue on with that deep, dark, bluesy, hard-rockin' sound that they were best at back then.On the other hand, they do have great love songs, but seriously I don't want 50/50 when it comes to hard-rock/love songs by Aerosmith.Everyone knows who Aerosmith is now, so I hope that they can atleast go somewhat back to their late 70's/early 80's sound...
...just imagine how hard
THAT would hit
"Right In The Nuts" again...lol!!!
