	Joey Ramone - Biography - AOL Music
		Joey Ramone's signature bleat was the voice of punk rock in America.
		Ramone was born Jeffrey Hyman on May 19, 1951 (though he frequently claimed the year was 1952) in Forest Hills, part of the Queens section of New York City.
		When the Ramones recorded their debut album in 1976, it heralded the true birth of punk rock; although groups like the Stooges, MC5, and New York Dolls laid the groundwork, the Ramones' hooky, three-chord songwriting, cheerfully dumb humor, and boundless energy created the blueprint that countless punk bands would follow in the decades to come.

	Joey Ramone - Don't Worry About Me DVD-Audio review on AudioRevolution.com
		Ramone kicks off the album with a rock ‘n’ roll cover of the Louis Armstrong song Wonderful World.”; This up-tempo tune doesn’t stray too far from the original arrangement and surprisingly works as a punk rock song.
		As Joey was battling health problems when this album was made, the energy may not have always been there, but his heart sure was and that comes across.
		Joey Ramone was a true artist who cared more about making the music he loved than focusing on mainstream success.

		Joey Ramone had a voice to launch a revolution, and that's what he did back in 1974 with his leather-wearing "brothers" and their three-chord blasts of punk sputum that glorified pre-Beatles rock filtered through their New York brand of irony.
		Ramone lingered in the way-back machine a little longer, matching Iggy Pop sneer for sneer in his almost-perfect rendition of the Stooges' classic "1969," making the song his own, before moving on to showcase his own prodigious songwriting talents.
		Joey died of lymphoma in 2001 before Sanctuary released "Don't Worry About Me", and the true highlight of the album is that even when Joey knew his time was coming, he faced it with his unadulturated punk rocker attitude that he was so reknowned for.

		The casual Ramone fan tends to view the band as one Ramones-y mass, a monster with four identical sulking heads.
		Joey was infamously left-wing; guitarist Johnny was infamously right-wing; bassist Dee Dee was infamously insane.
		Scary on the outside but cradling a heart of gold inside, Joey was the proletarian Ramone, always happy to bask in his hard-earned fame, devoting himself to making sure the world would not have to brave the 21st century without honest rock and roll.

		Joey, who admitted to writing most of the lyrics, sang "Commando" (nobody was writing about the Vietnam War; most musicians were still in denial), "Blitzkrieg Bop," "Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue" and other decidedly non-peace-and-love songs.

		The Ramones released Rocket to Russia, in 1977.
		The resultant release, End Of The Century, was a curious hybrid, and while Johnny balked at Spector's laborious recording technique, Joey, whose penchant for girl-group material gave the Ramones their sense of melody, was less noticeably critical.

		The Ramones' anthems may never quite have been fully Spectorian, but Joey made sure they were always irresistibly catchy, which was hardly the top priority of most fellow rockers in the progressive rock dominated era when the band first came up.
