Album Notes
The Ramones: Joey Ramone (vocals); Johnny Ramone (guitar); C.J. Ramone (bass); Marky Ramone (drums).
Engineers include: Ed Stasium, Ian Bryan, Daniel Rey.
Recorded live at the Academy, New York, New York on February 29, 1996 and at Baby Monster Studios, New York, New York.
To coincide with their appearance as part of the Lollapallooza '96 festival tour (alongside the likes of Rancid, Soundgarden, and Metallica), the Ramones issued their third live album, GREATEST HITS LIVE. The group was nearing the end of a mammoth "farewell tour," (they'd done several of these already) but although they were in the twilight of their career, nobody could lay down such an enjoyable, three-chord racket like the Ramones.
As the title says, just their best tracks make the cut--featured are super-charged versions of classics like "Blitzkrieg Bop," "Do You Remember Rock N' Roll Radio," "I Wanna Be Sedated," and "Rockaway Beach." While it may not be as stupendous as their original live set, 1979's IT'S ALIVE, 1996's GREATEST HITS LIVE still packs quite a punch.
Industry Reviews
...one of rock's most important bands, you could do a whole lot worse than full-throttle live versions of `Beat On The Brat,' `Sheena Is A Punk Rocker,' and 16 other songs...
