Advantages: Non-stop energetic over the top hour of brilliance Disadvantages: Everything sounds the same if you're not a fan
...A tragically ironic name considering the majority of the original band have since passed.
Anyway, this cd is an hour long bust of energy that does not let you go. Although their songs may lack originality after a while they are each brilliant on their own. For all you Punks that think greenday was the real thing (or even people believing the sex pistols to have started it all) the Ramones were punk before it even existed. Their limitless energy, over the top performance and trashy 3 chord 4/4 rock amount to one of the original punk / rock and roll bands.
For fans there are all the favourites, Blitzkrieg bop, Judy is a punk, Rockaway beach, Sheena is a punk rocker etc played live and furiously. The Ramones are a band that is definitely at its best when playing live.
Originaliy - both Groundbreaking and Completely unoriginal...

Advantages: Just a stunning live album - perfect in every respect Disadvantages: None whatsoever
...I bought this album on a double LP when it was first relased back in the 70's. In fact, we were lucky in the UK, as it wasn't released in the US until many years later.
It is a live recording of a gig by the greatest punk rock band of all time, "Da Brudders" - the Ramones. It was recorded at the Rainbow Theatre in London on 31.12.77 (exactly 28 years ago to the day as I write this edit!) and contains all of their greatest tracks from their previous albums, "Ramones", "Leave Home" and "Rockey to Russia". It also showcases the marvellous metronomic drumming of their original drummer Tommy Ramone.
As with most Ramones albums, you get incredible value for money with an astonishing 28 tracks blasted out by the classic line-up of Joey, Johnny, Dee-Dee and Tommy. The first three of whom are sadly no longer with us. All...

...Stein, that covers the events of that evening and the second part of the DVD covers the unveiling of the Johnny Ramone Bronze statue at HollyWood forever, also the resting place of Dee Dee Ramone. It features commentaries from many of the musicians.

My Opinion
This is a touching documentary and one that leads you with many different emotions. You will fell happy, sad, depressed and excited throughout. However, it's not all mood and gloom. The performances are good by all the musicians, my favourites being Rob Zombie and Henry Rollins. This is another great RamonesDVD but for different reasons. Personally i wouldn't watch this as an introduction to the band but rather as something to watch once you are a fan and know the songs. It's hard to...
