Rocks In The Attic #92: The Ramones - ‘Rocket To Russia’ (1977)

I’m sure some people think this is a great album - probably Green Day fans - but for me, guitar driven rock music has to have more musicianship than just three guitar chords per song.

This reminds me of taking part in a Ramones tribute night at The Castle in Oldham. Without a band at the time, I got drafted by a friend’s band to sing lead vocals on Sheena Is A Punk Rocker. Aside from karaoke this was probably my only foray into singing without the safety of having a guitar slung across my chest.
