Great collection - If you are only going to buy one Ramones album, than you are poor or have poor taste in music. However, if you are only going to buy one Ramone s album - I would recommend this collection. The CD is worth it s price for the liner notes alone which provide an excellent history of the band. And of course, the songs are great too.
Ramones, The Best Band Ever - If you are a fan of the Ramones like I am. I would not let this jem get away. Every song on this classic album rocks. The Ramones have never done a bad song. Even their later work is great. Even if you have never even heard any of the Ramones songs, I would pick this album up I am sure you will love it.RIP Joey you are a GOD!!!
What is left to say? - Well, I ve been a Ramones fan since 77. They did more with three chords than most bands could ever dream.To you newbies, just listen to how tight this band is. The reverb, the harsh guitar chords, the voice, and the drumming are flawless.There s alot to be learned here on how to kick-it with only three chords.The Ramones are in a league of their own. As far as an anthology is concerned...just buy all their albums on cd, cause you can never really get enough.
four and 1/2 stars. - i can t be sure about this, but i think that i would probably have turned out to be a much smarter person than i am if i hadn t listened to the ramones soooooo much. i really couldn t help it though, i loved their sound. i know for sure that that gabba gabba hey stuff wasn t good for me, but what was i to do? i really don t have any regrets. so i clean toliets for a living? somebody s got to. intelligence is overrated, i feel. i ve had gobs of fun in my life, and the ramones were there all along the way, providing it over and over with those three buzzsaw guitar chords and joey s one-of-a-kind rock and roll voice. no. i have no regrets. i d better get to bed now, though. got to be up at 6 in the morning. people are gonna be pooping, and i ll be there with my brush to take care of it all. thanks for hearing me out.
A great collection by this great band - Has all there best together here,wish they would have included a dvd of some videos.
