The guitar sound alone was so much thicker and harder than the proto-punk acts that influenced them: MC5, Stooges, Dolls. I don't care what anyone says: the guitar sound that Johnny Ramone first put on tape is the true starting point of punk rock.
@@christianlewis6252 Fear??? Fear formed 3 bloody years AFTER the Ramones. Fear formed AFTER the Damned, the Dead Boys, The Clash, the Sex Pistols so how can Fear be the initial spark igniting punk rock? Also, you do realize that Lee Ving was a blues and country musician who started Fear as a SATIRE of punk rock right? Do you know what a satire is? He formed Fear to make fun of punk rock and cash in on it's popularity. And as long as he can make cash from it he's kept it going.
I’ve had a rough cassette of some of this since ‘75. I was a radio DJ and my then-GF went to hand out at the Sire Sudios for the weekend, to watch our friends, the Stanky Brown Band, recording their second Sire LP. They were in one studio and the Ramones were in the other down the hall. She came back Monday with a cassette she recorded of “the band down the hall, that all looked the same in leather biker jackets and torn jeans and they all had the same name.”
☆Chainsaw... made me miss Joey really badly, i feel tears welling up. Such a purity in his delivery. Thanks for sharing this. I got to see 'em at the Palladium twice. It was such a great time for everyone. Greatest band/ performers ever♡♡♡♡☆
Loudmouth 53rd & 3rd I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend I Don’t Care Chain Saw You Should Never Have Opened That Door It Can’t Be Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue I Don’t Wanna Be Learned - I Don’t Wanna Be Tamed What’s Your Name You’re Gonna Kill That Girl I Don’t Wanna Walk Around with You Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World
I've been listening to the Ramones since 1984, when I signed out and taped their 1st two albums from, yes, the Edmonton Public Library! Remember the library??? Still not bored with Ramones!
Ramones is the only band that make me want to grab my guitar and play all this songs again and again. This sound so pure, so raw and i never listened this demo so its like a new release for me, love it. Aguante Los Ramones, los más grandes de la historia
by far the best sounding of all other recordings more raw slightly slowed down Joeys voice is fantastic seen them twice in LA back in the early Punk days...but this is what imagine them sounding at CBGBs......raw n with mistakes
i saw them live 9 times. once in New Haven CT the rest in NYC.....my go to LP is the live LP when you are felling down or depresses after an hour of the Ramones you will feel much better ready to face the world again......trust me
The genius of the Ramones is their consiseness the simple chord progression the melody and the lyrics effectively conveyed a thought or emotion in a way that people actually talk....we need a new Ramones
Completely agree on their conciseness. I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend makes every other teenage boy in love song completely redundant by stripping out everything superfluous. It can't be topped. Another one I love is this bit in I Can't Be - 12:25 - literally told my life story in a handful of words!
@@chrispayne1824 cool dude....yeah and this came out we band like Yes and ELO and all these band that had 15 instruments and over produced with 15min solos this cut right through all the pretentiousness put this showed us we could start a band even if we were lame.....
En 1994 tenia 16 años y los Ramones vinieron a mi ciudad natal Bahia Blanca..tocaron para 500 personas nada mas ..fué el mejor recital de mi vida..gracias Ramones!!
That' s very very loco, i can't believe, i feel so power when i listen to Ramones. Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷, por siempre en nuestros corazones⛓️ 🤍⛓️
To some people complaining about the speed: Tommy has stated in the past that a lot of these tracks (most of them) were purposedly mixed/mastered half a key step down (which also slightly took down the tempo) cause they didn't think record companies would bite if the songs were too fast.
I think you have it a little backwards. Tuning a half step down adds heaviness and also allows them to speed the tape slightly to sound tighter. Vocals have to be added later, otherwise they will sound artificially high pitched.
@@RaymondGinn1978 Apologies.... I just didn't explain it correctly. lol. I'm referring to the final tape. The band would've played in the same key and at the same tempo as they always did. But they sound slower (and in another key) cause the final tapes were slowed down. Example: 53rd and 3rd (a song played in open E), sounds here like it's in D#. Or Loudmouth (played in the fret of A), now sounds like it's played in the fret of G#. EDIT: Wait a second.... i think i'm wrong about the half-key. Listening closer now: the slowed down tape led inn many cases to the songs brought down an ENTIRE key. Here, 53rd and 3rd is D (instead of E) and Loudmouth is in G (instead of A). Etc etc. But yeah - point being, Tommy stated in the past; the demo was slowed down on purpose before they were mailed out to labels.
Gracias ❤ Ramones , Un puñetazo en el estómago , tenian una imagen impactante y de banda , tenian buen sonido ,buenas letras y mejor show , Leyendas de este Planeta 🌏 Punk!
Yea-- there is an old TapeOp interview of Tommy Ramone complaining about the drum sound on the final record-- basically they gated everything and killed the natural drum sound
Ese sonido, en ese momento, debió haberle volado el sombrero a más de uno! Revolucionario... The Stooges, Mc5, Alice, NY Dolls, etc. eran el caldo de cultivo, pero esta banda además, era POP!
Ciertamente eran 'pop' y es una pena que la mayoría de la gente solo escuche un sonido monótono, aburrido y repetitivo. Ciertamente estaban influenciadas por esos grupos de chicas de principios de los 60. Su música es dura, sublime, ingeniosa, divertida, irreverente y, sobre todo, genial. Sus simples iconos
Was it a tad bit higher pitched than here? People are complaining that it sounds slower than they remember. I figured they all listened to a bootleg cassette back in the day. The other version of these demos that I’ve ripped was a bootleg LP sourced from a bootleg cassette and that was higher pitched than here.
exactly. this is where it all began. i've heard songs before the Ramones that could be considered punk (stooges, mc5, etc), but in terms of where the blueprint lies, this is it.
@@MarceloRomero360 I was living in Florida at that time. I saw the Ramones in Atlanta in 1976 (two nights of a four night gig, two shows each night), in Orlando in 1978, and in Gainesville in 1980. I moved to NYC in 1981 but I never saw the Ramones again.
26 minutes? Is this the Ramones entire catalog? Lol. Pure rock and roll from the first note. They did however slightly resemble their NYC contemporaries here. But only just.
@@ChrisPolinskywere they? The vocals sound doubled tracked in the first track. Third one sounds like a delay return panned the other way. Plenty of overdubs all over
