The Ramones Artist Snapshot:

In 1976, the Ramones almost single-handedly invented punk rock and taught the likes of the Sex Pistols and the Clash how it was done. They combined a love of '60s pop melodies with a predilection for short, fast, loud songs and thick, chugging guitars. As part of the early NYC CBGB scene, they laid down the template that several generations of punk rockers have followed. Despite a couple of personnel changes over the years, they rarely strayed from their minimalist musical vision, rocking away until 1996. Though singer Joey and bassist/songwriter Dee Dee died in 2001 and 2002 respectively, and guitarist Johnny two years later, the Ramones still outlasted most of the bands they initially inspired.

Entertainment Weekly (7/23/99, p.69) - "...the great early stuff on the first CD hits so straight, deep, and true, it'd be churlish to judge this well-intentioned collection too harshly..." - Rating: B
Q (5/02 SE, p.140) - Included in Q's "100 Best Punk Albums".
Q (11/99, p.154) - 5 stars out of 5 - "...essential to anyone who wants a better, less pointless life, yet can't be bothered buying five Ramones albums..."
Alternative Press (9/99, p.110) - 4 out of 5 - "...overall this is a set that should please both hardcore fans and wannabe new-school punks."
Mojo (Publisher) (1/00, p.31) - Included in Mojo Magazine's "Best Boxed Sets" of 1999.

It took four Queens punks who could barely string together four chords to revitalize American rock & roll. The Ramones torpedoed self-important '70s arena-rock, stripping it down to its foundations. Thanks to their pop smarts, they became the nation's favorite and perhaps most influential punk rock outfit.

The Ramones' music has always echoed a Phil Spector-esque sense of melodic structure. HEY HO LET'S GO! is a delirious, nonstop rush of barreling drums and guitars topped with bubblegum melodies. The emphasis is on the band's seminal '70s output. "Blitzkrieg Bop," "Rockaway Beach," "Teenage Lobotomy," and "I Wanna Be Sedated" whiz past like no-frills Lear jets. The Ramones' power lies in their simplicity; you won't even find a guitar solo here. The band's post-'70s output is a mixed bag, but the second disc includes a sampling of its brighter moments. To the Ramones credit, they held on to their ideals and never played unplugged, released a concept album, or recorded a song that outstayed its welcome.
