This is a 33 1/3 record to RAMONES 1976 Vintage 33 LP Punk Rock Record includes FULL INTERIOR PAPERS
The Ramones were an American punk rock band formed in the New York City neighborhood Forest Hills, Queens in 1974. 
Known for helping establish the punk movement in the United States and elsewhere, the Ramones are often cited as the first true punk rock band. 
Although they never achieved significant commercial success, the band is seen today as highly influential in punk culture.
All members adopted pseudonyms ending with the surname Ramone, although none were biologically related: they were inspired by Paul McCartney, who would check into hotels under the alias Paul Ramon. 
The Ramones performed 2,263 concerts, touring virtually nonstop for 22 years, and released fourteen studio albums. 
In 1996, after a tour as part of the Lollapalooza music festival, they played a farewell concert in Los Angeles and disbanded.
By 2014, all four of the band's original members had died  – lead singer Joey Ramone (1951–2001),  bassist Dee Dee Ramone (1951–2002),  guitarist Johnny Ramone (1948–2004)  and drummer Tommy Ramone (1949–2014).
The Ramones had experienced a few lineup changes, with Joey and Johnny as the only constant members. 
Tommy left the band in 1978 to pursue a career in record production, and was replaced by Marky Ramone, who himself was replaced by Richie Ramone in 1983. 
Following Richie's departure in 1987, and a brief stint with Elvis Ramone, Marky rejoined the band and Dee Dee departed two years later. 
The Ramones recorded their debut album, Ramones, in February 1976. 
Of the fourteen songs on the album, the longest, "I Don't Wanna Go Down to the Basement", barely surpassed two and a half minutes. 
While the songwriting credits were shared by the entire band, and each member did contribute some writing, much of the writing was done by Dee Dee.
The Ramones album was produced by Sire's Craig Leon, with Tommy as associate producer, on an extremely low budget of about $6,400 and released in April.
The now iconic front cover photograph of the band was taken by Roberta Bayley, a photographer for Punk magazine.
Punk, which was largely responsible for codifying the term for the scene emerging around CBGB, ran a cover story on the Ramones in its third issue, the same month as the album's release.
The Ramones' debut album was greeted by rock critics with glowing reviews. 
The Village Voice's Robert Christgau wrote, "I love this record—love it—even though I know these boys flirt with images of brutality (Nazi especially) ...
 For me, it blows everything else off the radio".
In Rolling Stone, Paul Nelson described it as "constructed almost entirely of rhythm tracks of an exhilarating intensity rock & roll has not experienced since its earliest days." 
Characterizing the band as "authentic American primitives whose work has to be heard to be understood", he declared, "It is time popular music followed the other arts in honoring its primitives."
Newsday's Wayne Robbins simply anointed the Ramones as "the best young rock 'n' roll band in the known universe."
Despite Sire's high hopes for it, Ramones was not a commercial success, reaching only number 111 on the Billboard album chart.
The two singles issued from the album, "Blitzkrieg Bop" and "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend", failed to chart. 
At the band's first major performance outside of New York, a June date in Youngstown, Ohio, members of Cleveland punk legends Frankenstein aka the Dead Boys were present and struck up a friendship with the band.
It was not until they made a brief tour of England that they began to see the fruits of their labor; a performance at the Roundhouse in London on July 4, 1976, with The Stranglers supporting the Flamin' Groovies, organized by Linda Stein, was a resounding success.
T. Rex leader Marc Bolan was in attendance at the Roundhouse show and was invited on stage.
Their Roundhouse appearance and a club date the following night—where the band met members of the Sex Pistols and the Clash—helped galvanize the burgeoning UK punk rock scene.
The Flamin' Groovies/Ramones double bill was successfully reprised at the Roxy Theatre in Los Angeles the following month, fueling the punk scene there as well. 
The Ramones were becoming an increasingly popular live act—a Toronto performance in September energized yet another growing punk scene.
From 1989 to their breakup in 1996, the Ramones consisted of Joey, Johnny, Marky and bassist C. J. Ramone.
