Description
I OFFER FOR YOUR LISTENING PLEASURE THIS GREAT DOUBLE LIVE ALBUM OF
THE RAMONES
IT'S ALIVE
The Ramones are the first punk rock band. Other bands, such as The stooges and the New York Dolls came before them, and set the stage and aesthetic for punk, and bands that immediately followed, such as the Sex Pistols made the latent violence of the music more explicit, but the Ramones crystallized the musical ideals of the genre. By cutting rock and roll down to its bare essentials — four chords; a simple, catchy melody; and irresistibly inane lyrics — and speeding up the tempo considerably, the Ramones created something that was rooted in early '60s, pre Beatles rock and roll and pop but sounded revolutionary. Since their breakthrough was theoretical as well as musical, they comfortably became the leaders of the emerging New York punk.
