Pls help me with: Aerosmith & Stones CDs - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Chocolate Moose · 11-19-2009, 03:48 PM

I’m sorry, I don’t know who else to ask. A few years ago, and I don’t remember the details, but I bought myself the Best of Aerosmith (2cd set) and the best of Rolling Stones (also a 2 cd set). I might even have gotten Aerosmith from an infomercial as I remmeber getting a keychain with it !!

Well, almost right away, my son took them, played them to death and they are scratched up and beyond repair. I want to replace them, rather than downloading songs – I liked them.

Any idea of the names of the CDs? I’m not a huge fan, I just want the best of each band’s music. I looked on ebay and it’s all bootleg music … I looked on J & R’s site but couldn’t figure out what to buy .. and Border’s doesn’t have that much music anymore.

Many thanks !!

For Aerosmith, I'm thinking "O Yeah, Ultimate Aerosmith Hits".

Does that ring a bell?

That must be it! Thanks !

The Rolling Stones CD might have been "Forty Licks", a two-disc set of their biggest hits. There's also an earlier two-disc collection called "Hot Rocks" that features their most well-known songs from 1964 to 1971.

40 LIcks has been discontinued and is over $100 on Amazon. It's not on ebay at all.

I don't want something old .. any ideas ?

Chocolate Moose · 11-19-2009, 05:03 PM

Never mind, I got it used on Amazon for $20. thanks all.

For a great Stones collection, it would be so worth your time to track down a comp called The Singles Collection. It came out in 1989 and has all of their 60's US and UK singles (both the A sides and the B sides, some of which handn't been availible on CD before). Its a three CD set and one of their best collections put out.

For the Rolling Stones you can also buy the excellent two disc set Hot Rocks 1964-1971. There is also the really good Jump Back: The Best of The Rolling Stones 1971-1993.
