Ramones - The Ramones 1975
Damn! Almost a month since my last post. I’ll try and be a more active poster.
This is the album that started it all. Hailing from Flushing, Queens, NY Dee Dee, Johnny & Joey Ramone founded the band in 1974 and recorded their self titled LP in 1975. The band stayed together and toured until 1996 when they broke up. Within a few years of the break up all 3 of the founding members died.
These songs are all 3 minutes or less, three chords or less and more original and full of life than anything that passes for “Classic Rock” from the same era. Prepare to bang your head.
If you don’t already own this album, DOWNLOAD it, copy it to your iPod or burn a CD, then play it L O U D. The speakers or your computer can’t do it justice!
