Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Few comebacks in rock and roll history have been as amazing as that of Aerosmith. Their triumphant return to the charts in the '80s not only rekindled the band's earlier success, but also significantly surpassed it. With their top 20 hits "Dude (Looks Like a Lady)," "Ragdoll," and the top 10 power ballad, "Angel," the group proved they had even more fire left in their fight than anyone could have imagined. Leaving behind its reckless lifestyle, the band sacrificed none of their rowdy rock and roll. "Ragdoll" and "Love in an Elevator" built upon Aerosmith's raunchy blues approach to hard rock, complete with singer Steven Tyler's howl in the best form of his career. Big Ones includes these rockers along with the spooky Grammy-winner "Jamie's Got a Gun," and the slower but still hard-edged "Crazy." Other high points of the new and improved band are reflected in "The Other Side" and the anthem "Eat the Rich." --Steve Gdula

First off I must begin this review that this is a good collection to start off with if you do not yet own any previous Aerosmith albums. Admittedly there are other good songs that Aerosmith made that were recorded after this album (such as "don't want to miss a thing"). However as an earlier review posted stated this is a good place to start if you would like to hear some of their 80's and early 90's stuff at a budget price. Some of the songs that I really liked on this cd are "love in an elevator" (9 out of 10),"rag doll" (10 out of 10),"Janie's Got a Gun" (8 out of 10), "Crazy" (9 out of 10), and "Living on the Edge" (10 out of 10). There are various good songs on this cd but for me the songs I just listed are some of the reasons why ... Read More:

Like the title suggests some of Aerosmith's biggest known revival hits are on this release. I think what should be on any compilation is subjective, but I think the point of this release was to gather a lot of hits in one place. And that they did.
Big Ones is still a good release, and Big Fun to listen to.

Forget the negative reviews. This is a great collection of Aerosmith hits, post the "Sweet Emotion" era. Buy it and replace the ones you don't like with "Sweet Emotions" or "Walk this Way" or whatever.

Three stars for Aerosmith here. 1994's 'Big Ones' is a decent compilation focusing strictly on their MTV-era hits, 1987-1994, a nice, seven-year period.
With songs like 'Dude (Looks Like A Lady),' 'Janie's Got A Gun,' and 'Love In An Elevator' on this compilation, you can't go wrong if you want strictly Aerosmith's "big ones," as in, big ones from 1987-1994.
But, in my humble opinion, the real highlight on 'Big Ones' is the track from the soundtrack of 'Beavis & Butthead Do America,' the hair metal-esque 'Deuces Are Wild.' That song is probably my favorite from Aerosmith's 1987-1994 Geffen Records period.
Still, the reason for the three stars is because this disc seems somewhat unnecessary in 2008. ... Read More:
