	Animal Boys - Ramones - Punk Rock Band New York - The Ramones
		Joey Ramone has stated the Ramones were rather taken with the Bay City Rollers' hit song "Saturday Night," and set out to imitate its catchy, sing-a-long quality.
		Tommy worked with Marky to ensure that his drumming was appropriate for the Ramones style; he also produced the fourth studio album Road to Ruin and their eighth Too Tough To Die.
		Joey Ramone died of cancer in 2001, Dee Dee died of a drug overdose in 2002 and Johnny died of cancer in 2004.

	Amazon.co.uk: The Ramones: Remastered and Expanded: Music: Ramones (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The Ramones' self-titled debut is a justifiably adored album--not just one of the best albums to come out of the initial New York punk explosion of the mid-'70s, but one of the greatest rock and roll albums of all time.
		While the remaining songs are still undoubtedly great, by the end of the album it is already clear that their `back to basics' approach created a musical straitjacket from which they (and all other punks) would struggle to escape.
		The Ramones are the godfathers of punk and this album probably encouraged a whole generation of bands to give it a go.

	Adrian's Album Reviews : The Ramones
		My problems with the Ramones are probably the same as everyone else's who hates them: their songs all sound the same, the songs (esp the choruses) are too repetitive, the songs are too underproduced, and the singer's voice.....
		The Ramones can take heart that their music has lasted, and continues to mean something to a significant amount of people, whilst certain chart toppers from 1981 can't even be remembered by anybody, these days.
		The Ramones, thanks to their producer at the time, or whatever - 'enjoy' a guitar sound that sounds like guitars are barely even present on the recording at all.

	I Ramones e l'Italia - RAMONEStory: il mito dei Ramones
		Prima dei Ramones in Italia erano sbarcati altri gruppi punk stranieri: Stranglers, Damned, Adam and The Ants; se vogliamo anche Patti Smith, nonostante i suo legami con il punk, al momento del suo arrivo in Italia, siano ormai solo a livello iconografico.
		Claudio Sorge piazza in copertina i Ramones sul primo numero della sua 'Teenage Lobotomy' nel gennaio del 1978, ma per avere una copertina di una rivista a diffusione nazionale occorre aspettare più di un anno: nel febbraio del 1979 esce il numero 4 di 'Rockerilla' con in copertina lo scatto di 'Rocket To Russia'.
		Quei Ramones non esistono più da almeno due decenni, ma al cospetto della morte di Joey e di Dee Dee e del patrimonio lasciato in eredità alle nuove bands (pensiamo a gruppi come i Manges ed i Retarded, ramonesiani fino in fondo) la cosa passa in secondo piano.

	Waits's 'Orphans' fits right in - The Boston Globe
		The album, featuring 30 new recordings and a 94-page booklet, is divided into three discs with fitting titles: "Brawlers," "Bawlers," and "Bastards"; that's exactly what each one delivers.
		Nearly every song seems to reference one of Waits's previous albums, from the late-night piano-bar blues of "World Keeps Turning" (perfect for 1973's "Closing Time") to the brash blues stomp of "Lucinda" (an outtake from 2004's "Real Gone," perhaps?).
		"Bastards" is the most quixotic of the albums, a hodgepodge of hiss-ridden demos ("Home I'll Never Be"), covers (of songs by Daniel Johnston, Kurt Weill, the Ramones, and others), and creepy spoken-word narratives ("First Kiss") in search of a David Lynch film soundtrack.

	Ramones
		The Ramones may not have the first to use faster-and-louder buzz chords to root their songs (The New York Dolls, for one, preceded 'em by several years), but nobody else was able to suggest so much with so little.
		The Ramones lasted over twenty years as a rock 'n' roll band, and while the group saw the inevitable personnel changes over that time, its sound remained pretty consistent: hyperactive guitar-based pop with its roots in the beach and the garage.
		Ramones Leave Home (1976): The first two Ramones albums came out so close together (within six months) that for most of us living outside the NYC axis, it was a crapshoot as to which one you heard first.

	The Ramones: Leave Home - PopMatters Music Review
		On this album, the Ramones are witty, menacing, goofy, cynical, and head-over-heels in love, all at the same time.
		Ramone sings of hanging out at Burger King, falling in love by the soda machine, going to Coney Island, the giddy anticipation of a first kiss, and again, that line that seems to be the album's mantra: "Everything's gonna be real fine".
		In addition to the restored album, fans are also treated to a full live set from the band's first Los Angeles performance in the summer of 1976, a blistering performance consisting of songs from their first two albums.

	"I'm A Teenage Lobotomy!"
		The Ramones put punk rock on the map with such seemingly effortless classics as, "I Wanna Be Sedated," "Beat On The Brat," and "Rock'n'Roll High School." The Ramones put the youth back into rock music, and it permanently stunted the band's growth.
		Ramon became Ramone, and in 1974 four high school hoodlums and/or dropouts assumed the last name and an image that would typify punk rock for years to come.
		Their first album, "The Ramones," failed to make it into the US top 100, but the band's impact was seeping into the rock world's sensibilities.

	Ramones Album Reviews
		As Joey Ramone himself said of his band’s contribution to rock n’ roll: “we gave it a good kick in the ass,” and when they gloriously end the album by shouting “today your love, tomorrow the world” you really feel like they (and you) can conquer the world.
		Ramones Leave Home (Sire ’77) Rating: A- Although most people didn’t know whether to take the band seriously or not (people either loved them or hated them), Ramones had an impact on the rock world that couldn’t be denied, and which couldn’t be quantified by mere album sales, which weren’t all that much.
		This is a poppier sounding album than their full throttle debut, with a major doo-wop/Beach Boys influence going along with their more standard three cords and a pile of dust numbers.

	phillyBurbs.com \| The Must-Have Music Guide
		Despite this prolonged lack of commercial success and recognition from the music industry, the Ramones stayed true to their roots, releasing a string of killer rock and roll albums that had as much to do with paying homage to '50s bubble gum pop as it did with launching the '70s punk movement.
		Ramones fans who didn't want to plunk down the cash for an import copy of 'It's Alive' instead had to settle for the 'Rock and Roll High School' soundtrack which featured a live medley of Ramones tracks as well as contributions from Alice Cooper, Chuck Berry, Nick Lowe, Devo and several others.
		New wave was all the rage in 1984 and the Ramones flirted with the emerging style on the keyboard-driven "Howling at the Moon," which was an overt attempt at a radio-friendly single.

		More importantly, the Ramones had staying power: decades after their contemporaries had fallen by the wayside, the Ramones were still around to show young alternative-rockers how punk rock is done.
		The next year, the Ramones released one of their all-time classics in Rocket To Russia, an album full of punk-pop gems like "Sheena Is A Punk Rocker" and "Rockaway Beach." The LP was well-received, inspiring the band to expand their style the next year on Road To Ruin.
		It was their most professional-sounding album yet thanks to the slick production by legendary producer Phil Spector, who was a big influence on Joey Ramone through his productions for the Ronettes and the Crystals.

	Album Review: The Ramones - Ramones Raw DVD
		The Ramones of the late 1970s were hardly viewed in the same context asthey are now.
		But the band's contradictory street-tough--or "dumb"--anti-fashion appearance are the ultimate irony: the Ramones in reality are the eternal punk teddy bears: lovable, down-to-earth guys with no-nonsense work ethics, easy humor and an undying devotion to their fans.
		It's video proof of how the Ramones never saw any real separation between themselves and any one of their legions of devoted fans who've accidentally made them so famous over the years.

	Rolling Stone : Ramones : Review
		Their first album, Ramones, is constructed almost entirely of rhythm tracks of an exhilarating intensity rock & roll has not experienced since its earliest days.
		The Ramones' lyrics are so compressed that there is no room for even one establishing atmosphere verse or one dramatically irrelevant guitar solo in which the musicians could suggest an everyday existence....
		The Ramones' ideas are undoubtedly too broad and oversimplified for any serious analysis, but it is the artistic force with which their ideas are expressed that makes their music so fascinating to critics who can rise above their aesthetic prejudices....

	Ramones
		Though the Ramones’ songs might seem simple on the surface, their delightful directness came from paring away in an almost sculptural sense till nothing remained but a bone-hard, iconographic essence.
		The Ramones performed 2,263 concerts – roughly as many as the Grateful Dead, as ironic as that may seem - between their formation in 1974 and final show in Los Angeles on August 6, 1996.
		Later albums didn’t always rise to the genre-smashing brilliance of those first four, but the Ramones were always compelling and entertaining, and albums like the defiant, metal-edged Too Tough to Die insured their relevance well into the Eighties.

	Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Adios Amigos - The Ramones at Epinions.com
		Back in the day, when I was a budding punk rocker, the first time I saw the Ramones debut album, I said, "The Ramones aren't punk rock -- their hair's too long!" I soon ate my words, and became a big fan of the band.
		the Ramones are not just a punk rock band, no, they are a rock'n'roll band, and throughout their long career have covered all the angles, playing many styles including hardcore punk, pop-rock, ballads, and even an occasional countryfried tune -- all done in their own unique, slightly cheesy style.
		The Ramones called in long time associate Daniel Rey (famous New York producer/guitar player) to produce this one, and he really delivered a big, big sound -- wall of loud, crankin' guitars, huge sounding drums, very boomy bass, and of course Joey's fantastic vocals riding above the mix.
