The Ramones - Ramones - Vinyl (Remaster)
Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. The Ramones ignited the punk-rock movement with their eponymous 1976 debut album, revitalizing rock and roll at one of it's lowest ebbs with attitude, energy and a loud, fast new sound. By cutting music down to it's bare essentials - four chords; a simple, catchy melody; a sped-up tempo and irresistibly inane lyrics, the Ramones blazed the trail for thousands of bands that followed, influencing everyone from The Clash and The Sex Pistols to Green Day and The Offspring. Although The Ramones never achieved mainstream financial success, they released 21 live and studio albums, had a devoted fan base and were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2002. 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.
Ramones is the debut studio album by American punk rock band The Ramones, released on April 23, 1976, by Sire Records. After Hit Parader editor Lisa Robinson saw the band at a gig in New York City, she wrote about them in an article and contacted Danny Fields, insisting that he be their manager. Fields agreed and convinced Craig Leon to produce Ramones, and the band recorded a demo for prospective record labels. Leon persuaded Sire president Seymour Stein to listen to the band perform, and he later offered the band a recording contract. The Ramones began recording in January 1976, needing only seven days and $6,400 to record the album.

I mean I posted a 20 pack of generic blank vinyl albums the other day for $10, but no thumbs up, what the heck? Only cheap generic crap should be on this site. People only buy stuff because it's cheap, not if it's actually any good and on sale.

Trust me, The Ramones themselves wouldn't want you to buy this from Walmart

Yeah, have to agree. A digital remaster put on analog vinyl is wasted, you don't get the benefits of either medium. If you want remastered, buy the cd. If you want analog, go buy the original vinyl.

I'm sure it's fun to listen to the original pressing, but with modern technology, why not listen to something better.
Sorry you don't like the Ramones or this deal, but why are you still here talking about this? If you don't like it, why not just move on?
