Reissue. 2011 release; originally released in 1980. 180 gram vinyl. "Road to Ruin found the Ramones stretching their signature sound to its limits; even though there were several fine moments, nearly all of them arrived when the group broke free from the suddenly restrictive loud-fast-hard formula of their first records. Considering that the Ramones did desire mainstream success and that they had a deep love for early-'60s pop/rock, it's not surprising that they decided to shake loose the constrictions of their style by making an unabashed pop album, yet it was odd that Phil Spector produced End of the Century, because his painstaking working methods seemingly clashed with the Ramones' instinctual approach. However, the Ramones were always more clever than they appeared, so the matching actually worked better than it could have. Spector's detailed production helped bring 'Rock 'n' Roll High School' and 'Do You Remember Rock 'n' Roll Radio?' to life, yet it also kept some of the punkier numbers in check. Even so, End of the Century is more enjoyable than its predecessor, since the record has stronger material, and in retrospect, it's one of their better records of the '80s." --Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music

2016 reissue. Originally released in 1976. Remastered. "With the three-chord assault of 'Blitzkrieg Bop,' The Ramones begins at a blinding speed and never once over the course of its 14 songs does it let up. The Ramones is all about speed, hooks, stupidity, and simplicity. The songs are imaginative reductions of early rock & roll, girl group pop, and surf rock. Not only is the music boiled down to its essentials, but the Ramones offer a twisted, comical take on pop culture with their lyrics, whether it's the horror schlock of 'I Don't Wanna Go Down to the Basement,' the gleeful violence of 'Beat on the Brat,' or the maniacal stupidity of 'Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue.' And the cover of Chris Montez's 'Let's Dance' isn't a throwaway -- with its single-minded beat and lyrics, it encapsulates everything the group loves about pre-Beatles rock & roll. They don't alter the structure, or the intent, of the song, they simply make it louder and faster. And that's the key to all of the Ramones' music -- it's simple rock & roll, played simply, loud, and very, very fast. None of the songs clock in at any longer than two and half minutes, and most are considerably shorter. In comparison to some of the music the album inspired, The Ramones sounds a little tame -- it's a little too clean, and compared to their insanely fast live albums, it even sounds a little slow -- but there's no denying that it still sounds brilliantly fresh and intoxicatingly fun." --Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music

The Ramones, live at My Father's Place, New York on July 20th, 1982. The Ramones did not release an album in 1982, but continued to gig prolifically, despite problems within their ranks. Joey and Marky were battling alcoholism, while Dee Dee was in the grip of cocaine addiction, meaning that Johnny was taking more musical control. They were still a formidable live force, as this superb performance attests. This double CD presents the full original WLIR 92.7 FM broadcast. Includes background notes and images.

The Ramones, live from Montevideo, Uruguay on November 14th, 1994. The South American leg of The Ramones tour in support of their recent Acid Eaters LP (1993) finds the band performing with co-headliners and lifelong Ramones fans Sepultura. The set list for their show in Montevideo, Uruguay remains largely loyal to their post-1970s period, borrowing heavily from their first four albums and recalling the vitality that filled CBGB's back in 1976. The adrenalin and visceral rock 'n' roll that underpinned the band combined with Dee Dee's flawless knack in grasping the most effective and memorable riffs has ensured that at least everyone will hear a Ramones record at some point in their life. Echoes proudly presents the entire original El Dorado 100.3 FM broadcast of The Ramones live from Montevideo in Uruguay on November 14th, 1994. Professionally re-mastered original broadcast with background liners, interviews and rare archival photos.

"But 1976 and 1977, the years of punk in the US and UK, was the group's finest era. And it was towards the end of this era that the show represented on this CD was performed. A live broadcast on FM radio, this recording features perfect sound quality and includes live versions of cuts from the groups first 4 records, all released between 1976 & 1978 - along with a couple of choice covers, with which all fine Ramones gigs were graced."

Having formed in 1974, by 1995 the Ramones were America's best-known and best-loved punk band. They spent much of the year on what they announced as their farewell tour (they would ultimately play their final show in 1996), playing dates in the UK, Holland, Japan, the US, and elsewhere. The superb performance captured here took place in Argentina, and was recorded for FM radio broadcast. On it they tear through many of their best-known songs, proving that they were going out with a bang. It's presented here together with background notes and images.

The Ramones' first three albums are indispensable artifacts of the late '70s punk explosion, with their venomous fusion of Alice Cooper, The Lemon Pipers, and any other adolescent obsessions and college preoccupations. Ultimately, like their early live shows, these early albums are exhilarating formal triumphs. Their appearance at The Old Waldorf on January 31, 1978, enforced this with an abundance of energy and good vibes. Sweating American culture from every pore in 26 songs delivered with breakneck ferocity. Quite simply, it was a furor that challenged the pomp of prog and rock, drawing on three albums with Rocket to Russia being the most recent. Their Waldorf appearance displays a formidable force of nature in action. Armed with guitars, drums and with the trademark "1,2,3,4" assault, the band rip through their 1978 set list, a near carbon copy of their more familiar January 7 NYC performance aired on the King Biscuit Flower Hour. Incidentally, Tommy Ramone would leave the band shortly after these shows to concentrate on producing, making way for ex-Voidoids drummer Marc Bell (aka Marky Ramone). Fortunately, the records remain, but importantly, so do a handful of live recordings that can at least allow an appreciation of an equally vital part of their legacy. Echoes proudly presents a rare opportunity to capture The Ramones at their explosive best and in their formative years when CBGB's was a minor backstreet haunt. Their appearance at The Old Waldorf, broadcast on KSAN-FM, is a testament to the energy and ferocity of the band as a live act. Complete broadcast on 180-gram vinyl in digitally remastered sound with background liners and rare photos.

"On September 13th, 1978, the Ramones were guests in the TV studios of Radio Bremen. It was the first TV appearance of the band in Europe at all. For the successful TV series Musikladen they played 25 titles in about 50 minutes and left an ecstatic audience. Here is this unbelievable appearance, unabridged with all encores, for the first time on vinyl & DVD. For the band it must have been quite a shock when they entered the stage at the TV studio of Radio Bremen. Although the slightly ragged backdrop of Musikladen was okay to Joey, Dee Dee, Johnny, and Marky Ramone, it was not so for the bulk of their audience. Director and editor Joerg Sonntag, former assistant of Mike Leckebusch, recalls in an interview (included as a bonus feature on the DVD) that the night before the concert he strolled around the bars and pubs of Bremen and gave away free tickets. The Ramones performed songs mostly taken from their first two albums, and ended up leaving the audience overwhelmed. For the American punk legends, this first European TV appearance was a hard-fought breakthrough in Europe."
