Album Description
Available in:
Honkin' on Bobo is the 14th studio album by American rock band Aerosmith, released on March 30, 2004 by Columbia Records. The album includes 11 covers and one original track titled "The Grind". The sound reflects Aerosmith's blues-based influences and showcases a rawer sound (reminiscent of their 1970s heyday) compared to their recent commercial efforts and was also produced by Jack Douglas, who was Aerosmith's producer on a vast majority of their 1970s' output. Reaching #5 on the Billboard 200. Honkin' on Bobo was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America on May 11, 2004.

In reference to the origin of the title of the album, Joe Perry stated during a radio interview that "We just know that it's a phrase that sounds... jazzish, nastyish, so it works for us."

User Album Review
Aerosmith might have lost you in a sea of bad production and even worse songs during the last 25 years (though, admittedly, 1989’s Pump is a guilty pleasure), but Honkin’ On Bobo is a surprising return to form for Boston’s most infamous bar band. If you dig early Aerosmith rockers like “Mama Kin” and “Train Kept A Rollin,’” or riff-saturated masterpieces like Toys in The Attic and Rocks, you’ll love the bluesy Bobo. Filled with choice, hi-octane covers of masters like Misissippi Fred McDowell, Rev. Gary Davis and Willie Dixon, this new release from Steven Tyler, Joe Perry and company will help us all remember what made Aerosmith matter in the first place … and I don’t mean power ballads.
