Aerosmith : Pandora's Box


 (Original Box cover, 1991)


Pandora's Box

 is a 

compilation album, 

released on 

November 19, 1991,

 by

 Aerosmith

 Issued by 

Columbia Records

 to capitalize on

 the band's newfound success 

with Geffen, 



The Box Set 

consists of three discs

 that cover Aerosmith's 

output from the 1970s 

and early 1980s. 

Alongside alternate versions,

 previously unreleased songs,

 live renditions

 and remixes, 

Pandora's Box

 features

 previously

 released studio material.

The original issue 

was as a

 long cardboard box, 

containing three CDs

 (each in its own jewel-case, with inserts)

 and a booklet 

that detailed the tracks 

and had comments 

from the band members.

 Later issues did away

 with the outer box, 

utilizing a 

cardboard slipcase, 

but reproduced

 the booklet in

 'CD-size'.

The cover version of

 "Helter Skelter" 

is Aerosmith's 

third commercially

 released 

Beatles cover

 after 

"Come Together"

 from the

 Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

 soundtrack 

and

 "I'm Down" 

from

 Permanent Vacation,

 despite being

 the first

 they recorded.
