Ramones drummer Marky Ramone talks with Graham 'Gruhamed' Hartmann about the truth on recording with Phil Spector, eating dog food, his upcoming autobiography + more! More here: loudwire.com
10:20 “I don’t read the Wall Street Journal but if the suits like it, it must be good”. I just love that line, the stories about the dog food…the whole interview is fabulous.
My friend and I met Marky almost 20 years ago in a small bar/club in Cleveland, along with a member of the Misfits (I feel bad, but I'm not terribly familiar with them). We were maybe 16 and signing up for a battle of the bands. The owner asked for us to wait a bit until he was ready. Marky and the dude from the Misfits were just chilling, it was probably midday. They invited me and my friend to kick it with them in the VIP lounge upstairs. They were two of the coolest dudes! They asked what type of music we played, we said punk. They were so supportive and awesome! They had some great stories, of course!
@@scramblesthedeathdealer must’ve been Jerry Only you met. while Jerry, Marky and Dez Cadena were doing the misfits reunion during that time. It was the worst version of the misfits but I’m jealous you got to meet them.
At least... the problem is that they don't bond because Marky and Richie don't get along very well. They both stated that and Richie messed around with Marky a bit on occasion.
@Tyler Mod Yes, they are Ramones after all, although between Richie and Marky I prefer Marky, and CJ and Dee Dee I prefer Dee Dee, I think that both CJ and Richie were part of a different stage of the band than the previous ones.
@Tyler Mod I agree to some extent. His musical evolution towards something more commercial is seen in End Of The Century due to the influence of producer Phil Spector, but we also see there how his decline begins. I am not saying that this was not a great album, for me it was a very good one, but from there we see the output of albums like Subterranean Jungle, which marked a rather large decline. The attempt of the Ramones to recover their public and its essence we see it in Too Tough To Die. On the other hand, I recognize that Richie was there for the money, and we can see that when he left the band because, supposedly, the other members did not share the benefits of merchandising with him.
Marky ramone was the best Ramones drummer he may not be the original drummer but he's certainly the classic drummer he was with the ramones over 15 years and played over 1500 shows with ramones.
Mark was one cool dude .I loved watching the Romones being interviewed they were so funny with stories they would tell you .the story about them getting out of a van and this woman said a thats nice to the driver god love them what's wrong with them .🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
johnny didnt say what are you going to shoot me instead he said to dee dee at that time he always brought a switch blade because he called Connie ex girlfriend of dee dee a bore
Marky you look GREAT. and excited to see you on the Red Carpet at The M.E. T. Ball tonight. With Marky Ramone and the Ramones should be Featured at The M.E. T.Ball
Burlats de Montaigne In what way? Because I like Marc's style better. Tell me what I said that put Tommy down? Because I have plenty of respect for him!
Dave Carignan You didn't say you like his style better, which would be subjective, you said he was a better drummer - which is objective. Tommy invented the Ramones drumming style which Marky then reproduced live because Tommy couldn't be fucked to tour.
Ok, next time I'll break out my F-ing dictionary so you subjective brainiacs can understand what a normal construction worker means. It means he's a better drummer, period.
+Snuffy Smith Thank you, I saw them both play for the Ramones (I'm 53) and just thought Marc added more to the meter and added breakdowns within the songs at the right times. I also thought Ritchie did a great job! Loved them all, they were all Ramones, end of story!
Johnny did not lie in his book. Like Marky said they knew he had guns on him so when him and Johnny did not agree with something Johnny said what are you going to do shoot me. He never said in his book at least that Phil pointed a gun at him.
