Up for auction is this RAMONES - Pleasant Dreams LP. This was the Ramones' 6th studio album
which was originally released on July 20th, 1981. The recording process for this album brought about
much tension & conflict between band members. It was partially due to Dee Dee's drug addiction.
Additionally, Marky & Joey were both developing alcohol problems. There were also disputes about
the overall genre of the album with Johnny leaning towards the classic hard rock riffs with Punk
overtones & Joey being vocally inspired by the catchy rhythms of Pop music mixed with the sounds
of New Wave. But the most notable strife which caused tension was the factthat Johnny started
dating Joey's ex-girlfriend. During early stages of the album's development, Joey was dating a girl
named Linda Danielle. After the album was released, she left Joey & started dating Johnny.
Needless to say, Joey was devestated as it affected him deeply. Johny knew it was bad, so he kept
Linda hidden from there on in. She didn't come to many of their shows, but when she did, she
would hide out in the back & Johnny would run out to see her for a bit , then return backstage to
the band. Joey carried a strong grudge against them both. But despite this, the two musicians
continued to perform on stage with the band and would go long periods without speaking a word
to one another. Johnny would go on to marry Linda in 1984.
This particula copy you are bidding on is a U.S. Repress from 1983(?) The outer cardboard
jacket is in EXCELLENT condition or better with the original plastic shrinkwrap still on it. The
inner paper sleeve is in FINE condition with some light wear. The vinyl album is in NEARMINT
condition & has only been played about 3 or 4 times.

handling time. Business days are Monday - Friday. Most of the time I get them
mailed before the 5 days are up. On rare occasions I might mail out your item(s)
on a Saturday, but that doesn't neccesarily mean your package will arrive
sooner. The mail routes are screwy b/c the shortest ones don't mean that
they're faster. I've had a package get from Omaha, NE, & delivered all the
way up to Maine by the next day. But on the same note, I had a parcel take 9
days to get to Illinois. How is that possible?!?
