Following the triumphant comeback success of PERMANENT VACATION, Aerosmith's next album, PUMP, proved to be an opportunity for the band to cut back on the army of songwriters that had lent its hand on the prior album. Most of the material on 1989's PUMP was generated from within the band, and Jim Vallance and Desmond Child are the album's only outside collaborators.
Sober and fully functional, Aerosmith used the momentum of success to churn out songs that tapped into the band's libidinous instincts, like "Young Lust" and "Love in an Elevator." The band also took a chance by including a Steven Tyler/Tom Hamilton hit about incest ("Janie's Got a Gun"), a semi-autobiographical rant about the evils of drug use ("Monkey on My Back"), and a bluegrass/Indian instrumental ("Dulcimer Stomp"). Although the brassy "The Other Side" and the power-ballad "What it Takes" became top-30 hits, it was with lesser-known songs like the Stones-esque pop nugget "My Girl" that Aerosmith showed it was still capable of being America's top rock & roll band.

Editorial Reviews
5 stars out of 5 - ...Aerosmith stay clean and conquer the world. Cover shot of 2 trucks copulating still indicative of silly, sleazy sounds within. Pregnant with hits: 'Love In An Elevator', 'Janie's Got A Gun', 'The Other Side'.

      The last great Aerosmith album
    Review created: 05/09/07

    I was really glad to get this album on CD.It really is the last great Aerosmith album.What makes it so great is the socially conscious songwriting on "Janie's Got a Gun"(about child abuse and incest)and the musical experimentation(the band used some exotic instruments to create this album).Overall,even though the lyrics are typically raunchy at times("Young Lust";"Love In An Elevator"),Aerosmith really did sound like they were having fun making this album and not simply fulfilling contractual obligations.

      Fun and Sexy
    Review created: 09/22/06

    An old classic favorite from my CD collection. What's not to love about Steven Tyler? He has an incredible voice and the harmonies in his songs are fantastic. Fun and upbeat.....sexy and intense naughty boy lyrics. A definate must have album for classic rock lovers. You just can't sit still when you listen to this album.
