Illustrated with over 50 photographs this is the ultimate story of the outrageous band who broke every current commercial guideline in rock music but went on to become one of the biggest attractions on the rock circuit. The Ramones were the only outside band that everyone looked up to.' - Chrissie Hynde'
Great read on the Ramones. Very few good books out there this is one.
History of the greatest Rock and Roll Band
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This book gives you the essential history of the Ramones. Not many other bands would right down important dates in their careers, but fortunately for us Johnny Ramone kept a good log of historical dates. This book is a must read for the informational part of it. As well as the pictures inside the book show you how the Ramones never sold out to any fashions trends.
An excellent historical record of a great rock n roll band

Needless to say, this is a must for every Ramones fan. The Ramones were (and still are) my favorite band. I was very sorry that they decided to call it a career a few years ago. This book reminds us that the Ramones saved rock n roll from the abyss of staleness. They reminded us that not only could rock be used to comment on the world and society, but that is was also fun. Most of their songs didn't have deep meanings to them, but they sure did rock. I saw the Ramones in concert many times.
This is like a Ramones Bible!

The music of the Ramones has changed my life. The Ramones are the reason I love punk. This book is probaly the best book a Ramones fan will ever read (unless you're a Ramones fan as well as a George Orwell fan). If you don't know much about the Ramones and are interested, this can serve as your education.The book is written by a true fan,not some dopey writer who thinks the only thing punk rock is Johnny Rotten.
The essential book for all the Ramones fans.

This is the book that any Ramones fan in the world would be anxious to read. A complete view into the most famous punk-rock band life through 20 years. You simply can't be a Ramones fan and do not read this book. It made me happy.
