The 1998 release
Classics Live!: Complete pulls together the 16 tracks released on the 1986 album Classics Live! and its 1987 sequel
Classics Live!, Vol. 2 onto one disc. Both albums contain performances cut at the Orpheum Theater in Boston in 1984 -- the first dates from February, the second from December -- which may not be the peak of
Aerosmith's popularity, but they're on the verge of the late-'80s comeback and are starting to sound revitalized. For fans, they're worth hearing and this is the best way to hear them, as it contains both albums on one disc. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
