the ramones heard them here first

Ace Records is cheering “Gabba gabba hey!” with the recent release of The Ramones Heard Them Here First, an overview charting the influences behind New York’s seminal punk pioneers.  Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee and Tommy didn’t exactly try to hide their inspirations when they included a cover of Chris Montez’ 1962 hit “Let’s Dance” on their debut long-player Ramones in 1976 and over the years, they continued to tip the hat to rock and roll heroes from The Ronettes to The Beach Boys.  The new

London's biggest badasses, through Sanctuary Records in the U.K., are prepping a 16-disc collector's set - one that's heavy on artifice, if not necessarily revelatory in terms of content. The Complete Early Years features CDs of all the band's major releases from 1977 to 1984, from their iconic albums (Motörhead (1977), Overkill (1979), Bomber (1979), Ace of Spades (1980), the live No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith (1981), Iron
