5.0 out of 5 stars All the Ramones You'll Ever Need, Jun 6 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Ramonesmania (Audio CD)

Unless you are a totally huge fan of the Ramones, this is the only album you'll ever need by this loud, fast and revolutionary punk band. Dont buy Loud Fast and Tough or any other greatest hits compilations, this has the best of the loud and fast but also coupled with the less powerful numbers, more melodic songs; so you get the complete view of the picture. This band, along with the Pistols are the bands that made punk popular back in the later 70's. Ramones were in the U.S. while the Pistols made mayhem in the U.K. Anyways you cant ask for a better deal, about 30 songs on one convenient disc at a pretty cheap price; a win-win situation! If your young and only used to the Simple Plan, Good Charlotte B.S. this era seems to be dishing out and your looking for the REAL stuff then this is definitely the place to start. After you get this get "Nevermind the Bollocks, Heres The Sex Pistols" and you'll be set for the basis of punk rock.(then you move on to the dead kennedys, buzzcocks, television, social distortion)anyways happy rockin.

5.0 out of 5 stars great cd, Feb 20 2004

drinkyourguinness (Canton, New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Ramonesmania (Audio CD)

first off i'd like to say the ramones are an incrediable band (R.I.P. Joey and DeeDee) and that their music is timeless. this cd is really cool though their are some tracks missing that should have been on there in my opinion(cretin family ect.), its still a great compilation from a simply amazing band. it is too bad that the ramones are not here to keep good punk alive and well and to stop the trespassing on it by waves of poser bands and their preppy fans but what are you going to do I guess, mtv stabbed music in the back again. ok heres the deal, if you want to experiance punk in its finest beggining and its roots then either get this cd or rocket to russia or something.

5.0 out of 5 stars Non-hits? For beginners? What??, Jan 8 2004

I, Claudius (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Ramonesmania (Audio CD)

Contrary to beliefs of others, "I Wanna Be Sedated" was hardly the only "hit" that the Ramones had, and RamonesMania is as as dense of a an album representing the band as Black Flag's "First Four Years", or The Clash's "Story of the Clash Volume I". It is after all, a greatest hits album...

Funny to hear that they had been ignored by the radio except for the "one hit"... since I remember hearing "Blitzkrieg Bop", "Rock and Roll Radio", "Sheena Is A Punk Rocker" and "Rock n' Roll High School" - all of which appear on this album - on the radio as a kid growing up in Cleveland during the 70's and 80's... not to mention that in the early 80's the were also a staple on MTV, way back when the network didn't even have any commericials (let alone game shows, The Real World, or Movie Awards).

For a band that had "no hits" (other than "Sedated"...lol), they sure did a good job having their music show up in the first "National Lampoon's Vacation" movie, "Pet Semetary", oh yeah... and their OWN movie, "Rock n'Roll High School"... all of which appeared before the release of this album.

Look, if you are a fan (lifelong OR new) buy this album. It not only has their best stuff, it saves you money since most of their original studio albums are relatively short, yet cost the same as any other full LP. I have almost every Ramones album on vinyl (which is to say that I don't have anything on vinyl after Brain Drain), and this CD contains most of their best stuff minus a handful of songs ("Judy is a Punk" and "I Don't Wanna Walk Around With You" immediately come to mind....)

Gabba Gabba Hey.

4.0 out of 5 stars Makes a better intro than Anthology.
Yes this 1988 compilation is better than Anthology, since it collects a good deal of their best stuff and dispenses with the albums released after Halfway To Sanity which weren't... Read more
