Free Music Review: Contingency, Irony, and Solidarity --
Hit: 5 Stars
All Together In One Place!Is this the best Ramones record? It's not really a question that makes sense: although they didn't live to 200 or make a record every year, like many of their rough contemporaries they paid enough attention to the word from Mose to give their output more sameness than it need have. This is the least sincere one, though, and that's saying something since it's the one that usually gets invoked as blueprint for experiments in Nice-Price soddenness (and this cultural current shows little sign of decreasing, whether less or more people now know how to "pray yow"). Is this a must-have? No, although cuts from it help *Ramones Mania* put a breach in the "hull" of "completists" and the artwork helps demonstrate the possibility that Legs McNeil et al. really were good for something. But it's a "sequin" you can stand to have around, whether you it need it or not.

Hit: 5 Stars
I cant believe all of u americans, why dont u ever give a chance to ramones...i will not say the typical "they made the punk rock, blablabla...".One of the real reasons cuz they quitted, it`s that they were tired of he unrecognizement of u.s.a.They couldnt believe that they selled no more than 2.000.000 lp on his entire carreer;the same number that green day did with dookie!!I miss them a lot, i`m from argentina, they were like the beatles here(on Marky`s words)...all i want to say, is that when a good band appear, give them a chance, no matter if they dont look good or if they dont play like Steve Vai...
They were funny, loyals to his ppl, good persons(i had the chance to know all of them)and they`re gone, now...
On Johnny`s words "i love Elvis, and his gone, but i still buy his records and listen them again and again"...Please, lets do the same;thx ramones!
(excuse my english, thx!)

Hit: 5 Stars Rocket to Russia is my favorite album ever,I just can't live
trough a day without Cretin Hop or We're a Happy Family.RTR shows
Ramones at their best.Everything's here:Johnny s beautiful,comma-
nding,hard,but still melodic guitar,Joey s amazing voice,full of
emotions,Tommy's non-stop loud beating,and,of course,DeeDee's
simple,but enjoyable bass lines,and his lyrics(okay,it says songs
are written by the Ramones,but,since DeeDee was the main lyric
writer and composer in the band,I think the praise should go to him).Song are classic Ramones style:you have Joey's great poppy
oriented love songs and ballads(Her Today,Gone Tommorrow,Locket Love),and DeeDee's punk classics(We're a Happy Family,Teenage Lobotomy,Cretin Hop...)There is nothing more to say.This is the
third of Ramones first five albums,...
Free Music Review: Best Rock Album Ever
Hit: 5 Stars
Besides the Beatles, the Ramones were the best rock band ever. Why? Neither band compromised on anything they did. This album encompases their best effort. Their junior outing produced a professional sounding album before that got bored with the sound they made famous and started to experiment (like the acoustical parts of Road To Ruin).Just fast catchy tunes that that don't sound juvenile or rushed. If your new to the Ramones, you could try this album first, though most will try 'Ramones Mania', and that will do fine. But when you want more to explore, start here.
Plus, this album is as a whole, is also on 'All The Stuff And More Part 2', and includes Road To Ruin too.
