Book Reviews of Ramones: The Complete Twisted History
Book Review: Jason's Review
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to say that I loved this book because almost every page held a brand new fact that I did not know about The Ramones. I'm a huge a Ramones fan. They're my favorite band, so this was definitely one of my favorite books.
This book is about the Ramones. The good times, the bad times. How they felt about different things, every single one of their studio/live albums, their new and old band members. About before they were in the Ramones, during then time they where in it, and after the band departed.
I think some one who would like this book is a Ramones fan some one who really likes them. Because it is all about the Ramones and their complete twisted history.
Summary of Ramones: The Complete Twisted History
Formed in 1974, the Ramones fashioned their style from a love of 1960s pop music, proto-punk bands, trash culture, and horror movies. Here is their entire story, from CBGB and Rock ?n? Roll High School to turbulent recording sessions, the climactic 1996 Lollapalooza tour, Dee Dee?s change to horror author, and Joey?s death in 2001. 50 black-and-white photographs are included in this story of the band that was as trashy as last week?s garbage and as all-American as the eagle on their logo. ?If there were a Punk Rock Hall of Fame ... the Ramones would be the first inducted.? ? Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam
