Album Review

Aerosmith signed with Columbia early in the '90s, before their contract with Geffen expired and while they were riding high on the success of "Permanent Vacation" and "Pump". Part of the negotiations ensured that the band would deliver one more studio album ("Get a Grip") and a hits album ("Big Ones") for Geffen; they could then release a studio album for Columbia ("Nine Lives"), and then, to complete their Geffen obligations, they'd assemble a live album. Culled from tapes recorded during the "Get a Grip" and "Nine Lives" tours, the double-disc "A Little South of Sanity" is that live album. Considering its origins, the record couldn't help but feel a little like the contractual obligation it is, but it's to Aerosmith's credit that it doesn't sound tired...Aerosmith have developed into world-class showmen, which is why "A Little South of Sanity" will be an entertaining romp for longtime fans -- they're likely not to be disappointed by the slickness, in both performance and sound, that runs throughout the record, nor will they be dismayed by the predictable song selection, because that's all part of the show. More discriminating listeners will likely cite these two criticisms as proof that Aerosmith is past their prime, and they may well be right. But "A Little South of Sanity" isn't for them, it's for the fans, and they'll likely enjoy the spectacle... ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
