Road to Ruin (June 1978) - Ramones

« Ramones

My first Ramones record. I can't say enough about the Ramones and especially this LP. Every song is top-o-the-line power punk. If I was stuck on a desert island with a turntable, I would have this record with me.

The deluxe version also has the Ramones' cuts from the movie "Rock and Roll High School" including the title cut (not the End of the Century version), "I Want You Around" and the live medley: "Blitzkrieg Bop/Teenage Lobotomy/California Sun/Pinhead/She's The One."
