Get Your Wings by Aerosmith
Get Your Wings is an album by Aerosmith, released in 1974. 4 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 145 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Train Kept a Rollin”, on 61 lists with a best position of #63.
Get Your Wings, Aerosmith's second album, came out on Columbia in March 1974, a year after the debut, and it's the Boston five-piece sharpening its claws. Steven Tyler yowls and blows harmonica, Joe Perry and Brad Whitford trade greasy, blues-soaked riffs, and Tom Hamilton and Joey Kramer keep the whole thing strutting with a low-slung swing.
"Same Old Song and Dance" swaggers, "Train Kept a Rollin" charges like a runaway locomotive, "Lord of the Thighs" leers and "Seasons of Wither" drifts off into a moody, shadowy corner. None of the three singles made the charts, and the big breakthrough was still an album away, but the record kept on selling over the years, all the way to triple platinum.
