Ramones

Rhino continues its series of deluxe Ramones reissues with this 12x12, hardcover book-style 40th anniversary set for 1978's Road to Ruin including 3 CDs and 1 LP.  Disc One of the box set has the remastered version of the original album mix along with a 2018 stripped-down "Road Revisited" remix crafted by original producer Ed Stasium.  This remix is also included in the set on a 180-gram vinyl LP.  CD 2 boasts period rough mixes of every album track as well as bonus material such as single versions, backing tracks, two outtakes ("I Walk Out" and "S.L.U.G."), the 1988 "I Wanna Be Sedated" Ramones-on-45-Mega-Mix, and more.  The third CD premieres a 1979 concert recording from the band's homebase of New York, captured at the late, lamented Palladium and first broadcast on WNEW-FM.
