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.
