| NO SURPRIZE and CHEESECAKE are the only real stand outs and showed the band were still capable of writing great songs! They were definitely caught in the "RUTS" here.

| After a long hard day of listening to AOR and Euro-metal, this really hits the spot. Underrated is the operative word here, this one definitely rocks. Not quite as consistent as Toys In The Attic, but also not as overplayed...Also a nice production for '79. I'm sure no-one would agree, but I think after this is when they started to suck, they never really recovered after the Tyler/Perry split on Rock In A Hard Place. Now they just re-release the same ballads with different lyrics.

| A pretty good release from The "Bad Boys From Boston" I like the whole album, but my choice cuts are "No Surprize" and "Bone To Bone" (Coney Island White Fish Boy).

| The only song I know from this one is "Remember," and to me, it just sounds like the band always describes their lives at the time: strung out, slapped-together, not quite right. I think I might pass.

| "Cheese Cake", quite possibly their best song ever! OK, maybe their most overlooked at least!

| Definately and underrated release that still sounds good today. I wore this out the first time around and own a 2nd copy now. The last good Aerosmith album.

| The guitar action on "Coney Island White Fish Boy" by Perry and Whitford is awesome. Thats my favorite song on the album! Hands Down

| If you haven't heard this album you have mistreated yourself all these years. I must agree with most of the comments here. This is AEROSMITHS FINEST to the Nth power. This album is coarse,high grade intense. Cheese Cake, Chiquita just about every song is good. Remember was the only song that attained comercial sucess and yes you said it...who gives a damn about comercial. Sadly enough after this album AEROSMITH became the money making entity they currently are.

| If the "Behind The Music" show is to be believed, hardly anyone in the band was speaking to each other during the work on this album.. and other than "Chiquita" and "Remember" it really shows. Still, I'll take this album any day over some of their cheeseball top-40 work in the 1990s....

| Nice to see I'm not the only one who likes this album. I'm a big Aerosmith fan but I just don't think their albums have been consistently solid since Pump. But getting back to Night In The Ruts, even though the morale and status of the band was up in the air, one listen shows that they still had it together enough to put out a great album. But as someone stated earlier, another reason I may tend to favor this one is that I'm not sick of it from hearing on the radio all the time.

| This is better than "Draw The Line", but still a dissapointment. I actually like the cover song, "Remember" much better than their version of "Come Together". They also still write some quality hard rock in "No Surprize" and "Cheese Cake". 7/10

| The most underrated Aerosmith album. Songs like Chiquita, Coney island white fish boy, think about it,Three Mile smile, and no surprize. I have been playing this one a lot lately and its a shame it doesnt get as much recognition.

| I thought this one was refreshing considering I kinda lost faith in the boys. Not my personal favorite, but I like it.

| Bought this on import when I worked in a local store on a Saturday job to earn cash when I was at school. My pay for that day went straight on this!! News had previously broken about Joe Perry leaving so I was expecting the worse but what a great album!!! Chiquita is killer with a great riff and blasting sax and Cheesecake has a great slide guitar on it. The songs rock and their take on the Yradbirds Think About It is pretty cool!

| While this one has that same heavy intensity overall like "Rocks", ironiclly for me, I found the best song to be the very 50's flavored "Remember (Walkin' In The Sand)". I also found the album just a little off for some reason. While I don't believe this is Aerosmith at their best by any means, I do believe this album deserves more respect than it gets because it is better than it is often reviewed to be. Kind of a judge for yourself on this one.
