This one has Dream On July 18, 2008
This is a great CD to have for the variety of hits. Many of the "Best of" collections are missing a few songs because Aerosmith jumped around between recording companies. This one has Dream On which is missing on many of the collections.
 Unremarkable drivel from a bunch of has-beens July 8, 2008

Aerosmiths music stopped being relevant after "Draw the Line", perhaps before that... everything since has been AOR pop drool!!! What's this??? another scooped together "greatest hits" package? wow...thanks (yawn)
Like the Stones and countless Heart, Styx, BOC, etc... bands that continue to tour americas backwaters....know when to "hang it up" and bow out with grace.
It's time to stop wearing spandex and chasing teenagers when your AARP card shows up in the mail
 Not A True Best Of.....3.5 stars June 12, 2008
This is not a bad collection of songs by any means. My problem lies in what is absent. There is a WHOLE LOT missing from Aerosmith's 70's heyday. Thirty songs on here and only ten are from the 70's. I'm sorry but that is just too much post-70's material. Where is "Walking The Dog", "Train Kept a Rolling", "Chip Away The Stone", "Kings And Queens". But in all fairness the name of the collection is "Ulitmate Hits" not "Best Of". And for better or worse Aerosmiths "greatest hits" came from 1987 on. And there is really nothing wrong with that material. "Permanent Vacation" was my first real introduction to the band back in 87 when I was in high school when they made there comeback, but where I have a problem is that there are umpteen Aerosmith 80s/90s greatest hits packages already. "Big Ones" and "Young Lust" were already out there with most of this material already on it. Did we need another double CD that was primarily dedicated to this same period. To me it would have been more beneficial for a pre "Permanent Vacation" era compilation. Pretty much the only thing available as a compilation that covers this early era of the band are the old "Greatest Hits" (not enough material) single album and the box set "Pandoras Box"(a bit too much material). All in all the material is not bad but much like my complaint of the Bruce Springsteen "Greatest Hits" package, too much is dedicated to late 80s/90s material and the early era is far too ignored.
This is the Anti-Greatest Hits Collection? Who put this together? April 18, 2008

As other reviews have mentioned, all the classic material from the band's heyday is absent.....How you could issue a collection and not have Toys in the Attic is beyond me.........What a let down...they should have called this Greatest Hits from the bands reunion...forward. Way, way too many tracks on here that had outside writers...I want to hear Aerosmith, not writers...that's what Country music is for.
Check out the Fozzy All That Remains Reloaded Cd for some great american rock and roll.All That Remains Reloaded (W/Dvd)
 Great February 25, 2008
