They became an institution for a reason, Mike. They admittedly worked the gimmick angle (certainly no more so than, say, the much-fawned over White Stripes), but I risk flogging the very obvious point by saying they did it *FIRST*! Respect is due. As for frankness, I don't believe anyone is saying their later work is as significant as their seminal first few albums.

To me this is so far wide of the mark that it completely misses what early-Ramones are all about. The analogies with Brill building and early 60's girlpop songcraft has been trotted out so often wrt The Ramones that it's tempting to dismiss it out-of-hand. There is some truth in it though - I can hear the Shangri-La's, say, in I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend or Babysitter. That's not to say that this automatically makes the Ramones good, of course.
But they're better than good - they're masters. Their best songs are great because they are lean and simple - there's nothing that shouldn't be there. Couple this with a simple melodic hook(nothing fancy - 4 chords max. and another 2 for the middle 8) and a propulsive beat, and you have something irresistable. Add some elements of The Ramones 'own world' imagery (pick from : NY street images, retards, 'nam casualties, glue, girls)and you have genius.
Take "Glad to see you Go" from Leave Home - straight into a Beach Boys/Eddie Cochrane morphed melody and just listen to the way that the song shifts gear slightly on lines 3 and 4 of the verse as Tommy closes the high-hat a touch under the chords and melody. The shift into the chorus is sublime and the sheer rush as it comes back to the last verse from the middle 8 ("I need somebody good, I need a miracle") is like a ride in the space shuttle - on the outside.
Take "Rockaway Beach" - another point on the curve linking "Summer in the City", " Dancing in the Street" and "Baby on more Time". Again - great chorus, great lyrics ("Chewin out a rhythm on my bubblegum") and a sense of PLACE. In less than 3 minutes you feel exactly what it's like to be a teenager in baking hot NY - and you feel it every single time you hear it. That's great songwriting, Pinefox.
Rockaway, Glad..., Listen to My Heart, 53rd and 3rd, You Should Never Have Opened That Door are equals of "Please, Please Me", "California Girls", "My Generation" ..... the list goes on....if you can look past the "punk" thing which is really a red herring as far as The Ramones are concerned.
I guess it all depends on what you look for in a song - they're not Burt or Jimmy Webb, but they tell a story, crank up the adrenaline, and make their own world for 3 mins for EVERY SINGLE TRACK on the first 4 albums. That's classic.
I am still not particularly convinced about the overall point. In fact, come to think of it, I'm not at all convinced. But to be reasonable about this, I'm going to have to leave it till I've listened to the Ramones again.

But, Dr.C makes such a good case for Da Ramones that I'm thinking of checking them out again.
But part2, Jason makes a very interesting point that almost gets buried: the puritanism of much punk. I feel it's a key to why I don't like much of the stuff (although most of the time I think of punk as anorexic - no bottom ;) Will go up on the mountain and meditate on this insight.

Which kind of explains why I like so few American bands. Seems that whatever genre they work in, there's always that wide Rock streak that suffuses it all and kind of obliterates whatever else they're trying to do.

So I went to see what I thought was going to be a bunch of dodgy old punks on Saturday night and ended up seeing a dodgy old Scottish Ramones (this is a good thing).
Then I told my son (Mark, 5 and three quarters) that "Brian's band sound like the Ramones" and his jaw dropped and he said "THE RAMONES? REALLY? COOL!" and I think it's cool as fuck that my kid thinks it's cool that someone his dad knows is in a band that sounds a wee bit like The Ramones.
Then I listened to It's Alive this morning on the way to work and it reasserted itself as not only the best live album ever, but possibly one of the BEST ANYTHINGS EVER!
C.L.A.S.S.I.C.
Anyway, Weird Tales of the Ramones, anyone got it yet and want to tell me why I really need to buy it regardless of what I already own?

It's not like they were reinventing themselves every night
No, but live they were an overwhelming force — the way they just barreled through one song after another with just that lightning fast countdown in between, the cumulative effect was crushing in a way few other bands could match. I saw them late (1989; I can't remember whether it was this show or the next night, but either way it was right before my 18th birthday) but it was like having a wall fall on you.

In fact, there was no punk when their first album came out.

Always amazes me that Johnny and Joey apparently didn't speak for about two decades while being in the same band. Must have been an amazing atmosphere in the tour bus.

also the mark of a great live band is the experience with you actually were there in the room with them, not whether or not that came across on a live album or whether they even had a live album at alla great live band also doesn't have to "reinvent" itself onstage every night, that's poor Deadhead thinking

no I must be tripping
Well, I'm too young to have seen the Ramones live (in their prime), so the live albums are all I have to go on, and I couldn't see ever choosing to listen to a live Ramones album over a studio album.
The snark about jazz odyssey and the Dead raises an interesting point, though: what is the purpose of a live album by a rock / pop band that mostly sticks to the script, so to speak, as opposed to, like, Neil Young and the Dead and Dylan?
For what it's worth, I feel the same way about the Stones as I do about the Ramones. I remember having a discussion with a friend who devotedly bought every archival Stones live release, and he couldn't understand why I just didn't get the appeal, despite how much I love the Stones. And before anyone says it, yes there are bands (other than the Dead) for whom live albums will always beat, or at least equal, the studio work. I'm thinking about The Who and maybe Cheap Trick, but maybe Live at Leeds and At Budokan are two exceptions that prove the rule?
Not mounting an argument here, in fact I never really bought bootlegs of concerts, so maybe this thread has made me realize that I'm just not that into live albums? Again, only talking about rock music here.
I will check out It's Alive, though!

I kind of agree with this to an extent. There are many metal bands, for example, who do not change their music in any meaningful way onstage, so I don't see the point of listening to live recordings, except maybe to hear songs in a different context because of the way the set list is structured. But then there are bands for whom the live recording of a song is absolutely the definitive version, like say the version of "Victim of Changes" on Judas Priest's live album Unleashed in the East. Once you've heard that, there's no going back to the studio version (on Sad Wings of Destiny). Sometimes a band just has so much energy live that their live album is just better than their studio work. Other bands, exactly the opposite. I saw Metallica twice and had a blast both times, but every live recording of them I've ever heard has sucked. (Spare me your jokes about Lars Ulrich's drumming. He's fine. Their live work just doesn't translate to tape, for some reason.)

I forget where I learned this - maybe it was in the End of The Century documentary? - but supposedly Dee Dee would count off the same -1-2-3-4, in the same tempo, regardless of the song! I love that.
Agree with unperson re: live albums by metal bands. Bands like Meshuggah are mostly using triggers live anyway, right? So why would you want a compromised, less polished version of the same music?

I think this is in the Ramones documentary, which was probably the first time I saw them interviewed, but IIRC Marc Bell says once in a while, he'd speak up and tell a joke, just to lighten the atmosphere, and everyone would bust out laughing, but then go right back to stone cold silence. He tried!

Reading a little bit about Dee Dee’s history and trying to parse “today your love”“Shock trooper in a stupor” - a reference to his dad (wiki says he was alcoholicc) - or to himself ? I thought “shock trooper” could scan as a German reference but His dad was American I think“Little German boy being pushed around” scans as autobiography “I’m a Nazi baby” maybe the way he self deprecating described his childhood?”otherwise puzzled.

I bought this record when Orcutt put it up on his bandcamp, didn't really do any research or know anything about it, when it arrived I was in the middle of a terrible summer flu, it was hot as hell outside and I was fever-ish, just feeling terrible and in that kind dazed brain fog you get and I put this record on, kind of loud, and lay on my couch listening and I wasn't a hundred precent certain if the record I was hearing was real or if it was a fever dream or what. But I did listen to both sides and it ended up being kind of the perfect way to experience it.
