A LIMITED EDITION BLACK FRIDAY EXCLUSIVE.
NUMBERED ON REVERSE
Morrissey, being a big Ramones fan, particularly of the early years, had
always wanted to compile a “best of” album and this year, he got his
wish. This compilation reflects Morrissey’s experience of listening to
the band for the first time. With the sad passing of Tommy recently,
both management and Morrissey felt this was a fitting tribute. The use
of the Union Jack on the cover reflects both how important the band were
to the UK music scene but also how the UK embraced them and their
sound. The photo on the back cover by Danny Fitzgerald is evocative of
the period and was selected by Morrissey.
The Ramones ignited the punk-rock movement with their eponymous 1976
debut album, revitalizing rock and roll at one of its lowest ebbs with
attitude, energy and a loud, fast new sound. By cutting music down to
its bare essentials – four chords; a simple, catchy melody; a sped up
tempo and irresistibly inane lyrics, the Ramones blazed the trail for
thousands of bands that followed, influencing everyone from The Clash
and The Sex Pistols to Green Day and The Offspring.
