Reseña
Publicado el 8 de abril de 1975, "Toys in the attic" supuso el tercer álbum de Aerosmith y uno de los mejores en la discografía de la banda de Boston. Producido por el estadounidense Jack Douglas para la discográfica Columbia Records, consiguió ser uno de los más vendidos del grupo, con más de ocho millones de copias vendidas.
Tras varios años como banda de apoyo para otros artistas, Aerosmith consiguió finalmente un contrato de grabación con Columbia, tras un gran concierto junto a New York Dolls en Kansas City. Tras dos álbumes grabados con resultados bastante discretos, la discográfica les dio una última oportunidad. A las órdenes del productor Jack Douglas (colaborador también de su anterior álbum, "Get Your Wings", se encerraron de nuevo en el estudio de grabación con la intención de no salir de ahí hasta lograr un disco redondo.
Con la presión de la discográfico y por su propia ambición, los chicos de Aerosmith, con Steve Tiller a la cabeza, consiguieron un paquete de temas que consolidó a la banda como una de las bandas principales de un subgénero del rock denominado "cock rock", en el que se enfatiza la sexualidad masculina y el consumo de drogas.
"Toys In The Attic", el tema que da título al álbum, es una encadenación de riffs y sonidos rugientes. "Uncle Salty", compuesta por Steven Tyler y Tom Hamilton, es algo más contenida que la anterior, pero basada en una historia marginal de prostitutas , chulos y camellos.
"Walk This Way" y "Sweet Emotion" nos traen sonidos que recuerdan un tanto al funk, con uso insistente de las guitarras y con temas igualmente relacionados con violencia y delincuencia, confirmándolos como unos chicos malos.

[X]letra de Toys In The Attic
In the attic
lights
voices scream
nothin' seen
real's the dream
leaving the things that are real behind
leaving the things that you love from mind
all of the things that you learned from fears
nothin' is left for the years
Repeat chorus
Toys, toys, toys
in the attic
- Uncle SaltyVer letra 4:08
[X]letra de Uncle Salty
Uncle salty told me stories of a lonely
baby with a lonely kind of life to lead
my mammy was lusted, daddy he was busted
they left her to be trusted till the orphan bleeds
but when she cried at night, no one came
and when she cried at night, went insane
Uncle salty told me when she was just a baby
that she'd get by and maybe someday she'd see
but soon she found her mother's love for all the others
the pushers and the shovers was the life to lead
but when she cried at night, no one came
and when she cried at night, went insane
Oooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
oooh, it's a sunny day outside my window
oooh, oh yeah
oooh, oh yeah, yeah yeah
Now she's doin any for money and a penny
a sailor with a penny or two or three
hers is the cunning for men who come a-runnin'
they all come for fun and it seems to me
that when she cried at night, no one came
and when she cried at night, went insane
Oooh, it's a sunny day outside my window (x1,000,000)

[X]letra de Big Ten Inch Record
Got me the strangest woman
believe me this trick's no cinch
but i really get her going
when i whip out my big 10 inch
Record of a band that plays the blues
well a band that plays its blues
she just love my big 10 inch
record of her favorite blues
Last night i tried to tease her
i gave my love a little pinch
she said now stop that jivin'
now whip out your big 10 inch
Record of a band that plays those blues
well a band that plays the blues
she just loves my big 10 inch
record of her favorite blues
I, i, i cover her with kisses
and when we're in a lover's clinch
she gets all excited
when she begs for my big 10 inch
Record of a band that plays those blues
well a band that plays the blues
she just love my big 10 inch
record of her favorite blues
My girl don't go for smokin'
and liquor just make her flinch
seems she don't go for nothin'
'cept for my big 10 inch
Record of a band that plays the blues
band that play the blues
she just love my big 10 inch
record of her favorite blues

[X]letra de No More No More
Blood stains the ivories on my daddy's baby grand
ain't seen the daylight since we started this band
no more, no more (2x)
store-bought clothes fallin' 'part at the seams
tea leaf-readin' gypsies fortune-tellin' my dreams
no more, no more (2x)
holiday inn, lock the door with a chain
you love 'em and you hate it but to me they're all the same
no more, no more (3x)
baby i'm a dreamer
found my horse and carriage
stalemate jailbait ladies can't refuse
you love 'em then you leave 'em with your sold out reviews
no more, no more (2x)
sweet-talkin' bar room ladies disease
slippin' with her lips slidin' down your knees
no more, no more (3x)
*** screamer
bound to a wife in marriage
baby i'm a dreamer
found my horse and carriage
ladies hold the aces while my lovers call it passion *
the men call it pleasure but to me it's old fashioned
times they're a-changin' nothing ever stands still
if i don't stop changin' i'll be writin' my will
it's the same old story never get a second chance
for a dance to the top of the hill
babe i'm a dreamer
found my horse and carriage
Composición: Joe Perry, Steven TylerMúsicos invitados: Scott Cushnie (Piano) - Round And RoundVer letra 5:02
[X]letra de Round And Round
If you believe in me
like i believe in you
you wouldn't be tellin' me things
that weren't exactly true
now everythin' changes
ain't nothin' the same
i'm gettin' the strangest feelin' baby
i can't remember my name
cause the life i been livin'
and the love i been givin'
would be sure to set you spinnin'
but you ain't never touchin' ground
and i'm round and round
well it was one for all
and it was all for one
and everything that we did
never bothered no one
can you remember the days
when you were sweet sixteen
and always caught in the blaze
of someone else's dreams
i'm goin' round and round ( x 16 )
i'm goin' round and round ( x 1,000,000 )
