Aerosmith--Pump

Aerosmith--Pump (1989) Rating--6.8 **U.S. Sales Certification--Multi-Platinum 7**

To an extent, the party continues on this release--but as the album winds on, you find there are more horns and less distortion, and not nearly as many songs stand out as on the previous effort.
The upbeat "Young Lust" opens the disc, and "F.I.N.E." is pure sass and sleeze.
The main singles were "Love in an Elevator" and the dark "Janie's Got a Gun," as well as the ballad "What it Takes." Ok, but not as good as "Angel."
"Monkey On My Back" rolls in decent fasion, as does "The Other Side," but the rest is just a few shades above filler. Certainly a big seller, though.
