Forget every other Ramones comp out there -- this box set is the one. Johnny put it together, and it's chock-full of all the midnight movie-crazed, "Gabba Gabba Hey!"-chanting punk-pop classics, shoulda-been hits, live cuts and alternative takes that any self-respecting misfit could want. Once scoffed at, these irrepressible tunes are now everywhere.

Weird Tales Of The Ramones - Disc 1 of 3 © Rhino/Sire/Warne r Bros. Records, Inc. Originally Released August 9, AM G EXPERT REVIEW: It's easy to look at Rhino's box set Weird Tales of the Ramones and wonder whether it's necessary. After al l, there are albums for Ramones fans of all stripes: a single dis c of hits for the casual fan, a double-disc set for those who lov e the Ramones but don't want all the albums, then, of course, the original records -- all of the prime Sire albums from the '70s a nd early '80s were recently reissued in expanded editions by Rhin o -- for all true rockers. These should satisfy every different a udience the band has, so why bother with a box set? The answer to the question is that Weird Tales of the Ramones isn't really a C D box set, even though it contains three career-spanning CDs comp iled by the late Johnny Ramone -- it's a collectable, an object o f art, one that's closer to being a book augmented by three CDs a nd a DVD than a conventional CD box set. More precisely, it's a 5 4-page comic book hidden inside a hardcover book that's designed like an oversized comic. It will not fit neatly next to the other box sets in your collection, which is appropriate, since Weird T ales of the Ramones is not like other box sets. Although the thre e discs do a good job of tracing the band's career, hitting nearl y all of the high points along with more lows than necessary -- t here is a palpable, unavoidable dip in quality that arrives midwa y through the second disc that no amount polishing or selective e diting can save -- the music is nearly beside the point: the disc s function as the soundtrack to the myth the entire set sells. An d make no mistake, this is all about myths and comic book heroes, what fans wanted the Ramones to be -- what the band seemed to be , on their first four albums -- rather than what they actually we re. It's the antidote to the blunt, honest, wholly depressing fea ture-length documentary End of the Century, which made no secret of the bandmembers' disdain for each other and their business-lik e approach to being in a band. Such animosity and discord are gle efully ignored by the 25 comic artists whose interpretations of t he Ramones are the heart and soul of this set. John Holstrom, a co-founder of Punk magazine who provided illustrations to Rock et to Russia and Road to Ruin, appropriately gets the keynote sto ry and dispenses with a cartoon version of the basic history -- w hich is then augmented by Jordan Crane's brief run-through of the band's lineup changes -- but that's it as far as hard facts go. After that, it's all rock & roll fantasy: tales of the Ramones ri ding around the world as a gang, having outlandish adventures; st ories of meeting a Ramone, usually Joey, in the flesh; wondrous r e-creations of classic comic art, the flashiest being a 3-D homag e to EC horror comics by Steve Vance and John Vankin, but that's topped by Wayno's sublime "Sea-Markys" send-up of Sea Monkeys. Th ere are illustrated anecdotes, one too many allegories of how the band saved rock & roll, pictures of the band drawn as Dr. Seuss characters, encounters with Betty & Veronica and Homer Simpson, w hile Mad's Sergio Aragones draws a typical chaotic scene of a Ram ones concert. There's such a wide range that Johnny Ryan's cheerf ully moronic, violent, and vulgar comic strips sit comfortably ne xt to Steven Weissman's story of Liz Fox, a 15 year old who is th e outcast at her high school and finds not just solace in the Ram ones, but how the group suggests that there is a bigger, better, smarter world out there. These two stories coexist comfortabl y because the Ramones represented both extremes simultaneously -- sure, they celebrated bad taste and danced with danger, but thei r music was smartly stupid, knowing, and knowledgeable about pop music. In their heyday -- and, truth be told, also in the years j ust after their heyday, when they trudged through the '80s as a w orking band, turning out muddled records yet still retaining thei r '70s mystique -- being a Ramones fan meant that you were an out sider, something different from the norm. Once that era passed, i t was no longer a given that being a Ramones fan meant that you w ere part of a subculture. As they launched their farewell tour in the mid-'90s, they were playing for an audience that embraced th em for what they represented -- namely, an idealized version of t he glory days of punk -- not who they were or the music they made . They were playing to an audience that either were too young or too square to get them at the time, and in the decade between tha t breakup and this box set, the situation has metamorphosed into full-blown farce, as the Ramones not only sold more T-shirts and were better-known than they were during their prime, but "Blitzkr ieg Bop" had been used as a soundtrack to a Diet Pepsi ad without any acknowledgement of the dark, ironic undercurrents in the son g. What's brilliant about Weird Tales of the Ramones is that it ignores all of this and prints the myth, which remains as insp irational and timeless as their best music. As wonderful as this is, there is a melancholy undercurrent to this whole set. The tra jectory of the band's music itself is a little sad. What was once so bracing and fresh starts to slowly stagnate only a few years after their 1976 debut. While these three discs do a decent job o f camouflaging the group's decline -- not only did Johnny Ramone do an excellent job of cherry-picking the best moments from uneve n records, great bands like the Ramones are always listenable and rarely truly bad -- their songwriting turned flat somewhere afte r 1985, and their productions were getting too hard, glossy, and polished well before that, all of which makes the last half of th is set a little hard to get through in one sitting. The DVD is un even, starting out strong with a few excellent clips like the cla ssic "Merry Christmas Baby (I Don't Want to Fight Tonight)" and t he time-lapse photography "I Wanna Be Sedated," but devolving int o too many performance clips. By the end of the 18 videos, it's c lear that the comic book artists visually capture the spirit of t he Ramones better than the video directors. And this comic book i s truly something special: lovingly produced, funny, and oddly mo ving, it captures both the essence of the band and what their leg ions of fans saw in the group. Once the book has been read, a revelation hits you like a ton of bricks: everything that Weird Tales of the Ramones celebrates is gone. It's been 30 years since the group's debut. Three quarters of the original lineup of the Ramones are dead. CBGB's was struggling to survive the very month this box was released. Many of the visual references in the comi c book are anywhere from 30 to 50 years old. Kids don't read comi cs any more, adults do. (It could even be convincingly argued tha t kids aren't into rock & roll anymore, either.) The culture that produced the Ramones is gone, and the culture they spawned has c hanged too, drifting away from the riotous amalgam of high and lo w culture that was punk and turning into something slick, soulles s, crass, and small. Sure, Weird Tales of the Ramones disregards what punk became and celebrates the band at its peak and it's und eniably fun in that, but it's hard to shake the feeling that this is a tombstone, a memorial to the midpoint of the rock & roll er a, when everything old was new again and when the music had inher ent kinetic excitement and limitless potential. This may not make it a necessary purchase for most rock & roll fans -- chances are they already have the music, and there are no real musical rarit ies here -- but people who had their lives changed by rock & roll or love it unconditionally will find the whole of this set both life-affirming and startlingly poignant. -- Stephen Thomas Erlew ine Amazon.com Editorial Review Given their irreverent sens ibilities, it's almost ironic to lionize the comic deconstruction of ossified rock history that was the Ramones' stock in trade, o r note the decades of punk and alt.rock that remain their legacy. Instead, this collection smartly recasts the punk pioneers as li teral pulp culture icons via its EC Comics-inspired packaging and the brilliantly executed comic book history of the band that acc ompanies it. Musically, the set's first three discs offer up 85 h ighlights of the band's recording career, personally compiled by founder/guitarist Johnny Ramone and seasoned with rarities like t he demo for "Slug," the UK B-side "I Don't Want to Live This Life ," and the single mixes of "Sheena.." and others. Its accompanyin g Lifestyles of the Ramones documentary DVD intersperses 14 video s with the often bittersweet recollections of the band and key fa mily members, as well as such notables as Sire's Seymour Stein, T alking Head Tina Weymouth and producer Ed Stasium; another bonus six clips (including covers of the Who's "Substitute" and the '60 s' "Spiderman" theme) round out that history. But it's the dizzyi ng visual eclecticism of the included graphic history (executed i n color b&w and 3-D by 25 top comic artists including Matt Groeni ng, Zippy creator Bill Griffith, Mad magazine vet Sergio Argones, bootleg cover legend William Stout and Love and Rockets' Xaime H ernandez) that becomes the set's unusual focal point, a loving vi sual evocation of both their infectious music and shrewd, if will fully low-brow public persona. -- Jerry McCulley Amazon.com P roduct Description The supreme godfathers of punk-face it, they were on their third album before the Sex Pistols even broke-are t rue American originals, and their sensational end-of-the-century juggernaut is chronicled as never before in this career-spanning collection. Reducing and scrambling multiple strains of early roc k 'n' roll and pop into a signature chainsaw of sound, the Ramone s' loud, fast, and hard legacy rocketed out of NYC's CBGB in the early '70s and changed the face of modern music. Johnny Ramone, b efore his 2004 passing, oversaw the compilation of this first-eve r Ramones blitzkrieg box for Rhino. Half.com Details Prod ucer: Bill Laswell, Craig Leon, Dan Kessel, Daniel Rey, David A. Stewart, David Kessel, Ed Stasium, Glen Kolotkin, Graham Gouldman , Jean Beauvoir, Phil Spector, Ritchie Cordell, Scott Hackwith, T ommy Erdelyi, Tony Bongiovi Album Notes The Ramones: Dee Dee Ramone (vocals, guitar); C.J. Ramone (vocals, bass guitar); Joey Ramone (vocals); Johnny Ramone (guitar); Marky Ramone, Richie Ra mone, Tommy Ramone (drums). Additional personnel: Dick Emerson , Ben Tench (keyboards); Harvey Robert Kubernick, Rodney Bingenhe imer (hand claps). Although the Ramones have been anthologized ad infinitum, the three-CD/one-DVD box set WEIRD TALES OF THE RA MONES outshines all other collections in terms of sheer volume, b oasting 85 career-spanning tracks. The compilation also incl udes 3-D glasses for viewing sections of the beautifully oddball booklet, which is filled with comic art by SIMPSONS creator Matt Groening, MAD magazine fixture Sergio Aragones, and many other il lustrators. As the discs wind their way through 20 years (1976 -1996) of the iconic New York City punk band's work, WEIRD TALES touches down on undisputedly classic songs--"Blitzkrieg Bop," "Ju dy Is a Punk," "Sheena Is a Punk Rocker," "I Wanna Be Sedated," a ll revved up with the group's potent and immediately catchy three -chord attack--as well as latter-day gems (a hard-charging take o n Tom Waits's "I Don't Wanna Grow Up" and a loving tribute to the SPIDER-MAN cartoon theme song) and rarities (the previously UK-o nly single "I Don't Want This Life [Anymore]"). Rounding out this mammoth offering is the DVD, which features loads of music-video clips and interviews, making this the ultimate package for hardc ore Ramones fans. After all, where else can you see crazy caricat ures of Joey Ramone and the boys in 3-D? Industry Reviews 4 s tars out of 5 - The first three Ramones albums are so full of ene rgy, blood and guts that it's still hard to comprehend the fact t hat three of the group's founder members are dead. 3 stars out of 5 - [T]he Ramones lent punk-rock its basic three-chord palett e, thus changing the course of popular music as we know it. .. .To die-hard fans who already have all this stuff, the packaging alone is worth it.... - Grade: A AMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW The Only Problem..., August 18, By tashcrash (South Shore , MA) I'm not even going to attempt to defend my adulation of the Ramones or define their cultural importance, since a great ma ny have already done so here. Rather, I think it important to poi nt out the only major flaw with the set: the selection of post-TO O TOUGH TO DIE songs. This set was compiled by Johnny Ramone, and the third disc of the set reflects his bias (and I say this with the utmost respect; Johnny Ramone was perhaps the most perfect r ock n roll guitarist since Chuck Berry). Strangely, he opted to i nclude such dreck as Dee Dee's "Love Kills" (from ANIMAL BOY), an ode to Sid and Nancy which I've always felt greatly diminished t he Ramones' punk authority, and marked the unfortunate downslide in Dee Dee's songwriting abilities (other Dee Dee songs, especial ly "Poison Heart" from MONDO BIZARRO, are still painful to listen to, and difficult to justify). Further, the inclusion of so many C.J.-sung songs, rather than the still-great Joey tunes on ADIOS AMIGOS is inexplicable, especially the execrable "Scattergun" (a t least "Life's A Gas" and "Spiderman" are included). Lastly, HAL FWAY TO SANITY and BRAIN DRAIN, their two most consistent late-pe riod albums, are inexplicably under-represented. The point of this gripe is simply to point out a missed opportunity; everybod y already knows by now that the first four albums are peerless, e ven if they don't "get" the Ramones. The misguided survey of thei r waning years only furthers the assumption that they went downhi ll precipitously after 1984 (which is somewhat true, yet predomin antly exaggerated). I can't help but wonder what it would have be en like had Joey and Johnny been forced to collaborate on this co mpilation. If nothing else, it would have been more balanced. Otherwise, the remastering sounds great (a further improvement ov er the already-wonderful album reissues) and the comic book is in genious. AMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW Why the Ramones Rule, August 18, By J. Martin "Jeff Punk Rock Martin" (Portland , OR USA) Let's be straight about it: all these tunes have com e out before. Most of them have been repackaged a few times in a few different configurations. If you're a major Ramones fan, ther e's probably nothing here you haven't seen or heard. But then , if you're a major Ramones fan, none of this matters; you want p retty much anything you can find related in any way to the Ramone s. If you DON'T have all these songs, it doesn't matter either. S o let's dispense with any handwringing over whether this box set is really necessary. Hey, pizza isn't really necessary either, bu t aren't you glad it exists? Thought so. So let's cut to the chase. This set, you see, serves a higher purpose than just placi ng dozens of GREAT Ramones tunes onto a new batch of plastic disc s. It serves a higher purpose than mere commerce. This set is abo ut cementing and furthering the legacy of one of the rarest, most endangered beasts in the history of rock & roll: the Perfect Ban d. The Perfect Band, after all, must possess every last piece of the rock puzzle. Its members must all be cool in their own wa y. They must all have their own, distinct personalities and chari sma. They don't have to be individually handsome or pretty, but t hey must look good together. As far as the music goes, the playin g of the members must serve the song and must NEVER become the fo cal point INSTEAD of the song. The Perfect Band must function as a unit with each member making a viable contribution to the group 's overall sound and image. The Perfect Band absolutely MUST have the capacity to come up with one great song after another. In fa ct, the Perfect Band must have dozens and dozens of great songs u nder its belt. With so many prerequisites, it's little wonder that there's only been a tiny handful of Perfect Bands in the hi story of rock & roll. The Beatles - especially in their early yea rs - are an obvious example. The Stones are another, though their Perfect status was on vacation when the too-well-scrubbed Mick T aylor was in the fold. The Who? Maybe early on. The Beach Boys? Y es, but only before they started growing beards. The Kinks? Great band, not perfect. The Ramones? You bet your leather jacket, bab y. But to get to the point - and it is coming - of why this b ox set is worthwhile, it's important to note that the other Perfe ct Bands in rock all sold MILLIONS of records. These bands were/a re absolutely huge. They filled stadiums, fer chrissakes. But the Ramones? Ah, commercial success was in shorter supply for the Fa st Four than for the Fab Four, wasn't it? You know the story: no hit singles, no gold records (save for their collection, "Ramones Mania"), no stadium tours - at least not in these United States. So, while other Perfect Bands became a part of the cultural lands cape via radio play and selling LOTS of records, the Ramones did it by earning their fans one at a time. Fortunately for all of us , those fans have added up over the years, and they've rarely def ected. They've continued to add up thanks - in some measure - to the steady availability and reissuing of Ramones music. Thus the viability of an 85-song Ramones retrospective such as this. O h, sure there will be cynics. Some folks see any repackaging such as this as nothing more than crass commercialism - an affront to their punk rock sensibilities! But just think of that one kid ou t there whose dad buys this set just for old time's sake. Just th ink of that kid getting that same rush you got the first time you heard "Loudmouth." Or "Havana Affair." Or "I Don't Want You." Or "She's the One." Or, heck, about a hundred other Ramones songs t hat flat WAILED but never got to be hits, even by Ramone standard s. Think of that kid discovering a band that doesn't have just th ree or four really good songs, but DOZENS of really good songs. A nd think of that kid figuring out that, hey, this punk rock stuff didn't start with Blink 182. It didn't even start with the Sex P istols or the Clash. IT STARTED WITH THE RAMONES!!! So, yes, you already have this music. But if you're a true Ramones fan, yo u won't care. You'll dig the comic book, the packaging. You'll di g that there's still SOMETHING you can get and be excited about r elated to a band you love. You'll dig that a set like this confir ms that the Ramones have become huge after all (something - if yo u're really a fan - you were praying for throughout their career) . You'll dig that after all these years, other people still care about the Ramones. And most of all, you'll dig that somewhere alo ng the line, this set is going to give some kid his first blast o f, say, "Carbona Not Glue." Hey, maybe that kid will even start a band some day. AMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW Gabba Gabba Huh ?, December 13, By Clark Paull "(Sleepin' with the TV on) " (Murder City) No, you're not imagining things. That hollow s ound you're hearing is Sire and Rhino scraping the bottom of the Ramones barrel and coming up empty. Other than remastered, ex panded editions of "Acid Eaters," "Adios Amigos," "Animal Boy," " Halfway To Sanity," "Mondo Bizarro," and "Brain Drain," it's stri ctly "been there, done that" on the repackaging front, the band's notoriously spartan way of conducting business not inspiring any search and recovery missions for dusty, eroding analog tapes. If recent photos are any indication, however, that's not to say there's no surprises concealed in Phil Spector's hair. All those takes of "Rock 'N' Roll High School's" opening power chord he fo rced Johnny to endure would fill a few box sets of their own, a l a the Stooges' "1970: The Complete Fun House Sessions." I'd b e the last to suggest they don't deserve it, but "Weird Tales Of The Ramones" appears to be nothing more than an attempt to pad th e coffers of the estates of the three deceased members of the ban d and the three yet to check into the wooden Waldorf. And I p aid for it with my own money. The ability to separate schmoes like myself from hard-earned greenbacks for music we already own in a different wrapper is what makes the souls of companies like Rhino, Castle, Sanctuary, and my personal favorite - Captain Oi! - so dark. In all fairness to Rhino, however, the Ramones are an easy sell and those likely to buy this four-disc box (three CD's and one DVD) probably won't need to be strongarmed. If the band' s high-speed crack-up of three chords and blissful bubblegum aest hetic doesn't leave you inspired and grinning like an idiot, you' ve got a hole in your soul. Nearly 30 years after that first album baffled so many clueless radio programmers and hippies who refused to believe the sun had finally set on the summer of love, with nothing more than a brace of songs gestated in suburbia abo ut diversions like television, huffing model airplane cement, and adolescent attitude adjustment with Louisville Sluggers, the Ram ones canon still tastes as fresh as a just-cracked bottle of Yoo Hoo, almost magical in its power to remedy whatever may be laying you low, capable of blasting you outside of yourself, making you feel super-alive and able to pretend this moment/hour/day/night is the rest of your life. What else in the realm of the living or dead really matters? It's a testimony to the Ramones' savant -like flair for consistently delivering the sonic goods that thin gs don't really start to flag here until late in Disc 3, but with the exception of "Mondo Bizarro," I've never really been a much of a believer in the C.J.-era songwriting anyway so that may just be my tough luck. The DVD is all gravy, although most of it will be familiar to owners of "Lifestyles Of The Ramones" on VHS. And while most videos in general leave me perplexed, the clip fo r the cover of The Who's "Substitute" scales new heights of incom prehensibility; something to do with a cave dweller who dreams of picking up hot babes while masquerading as fat Elvis, encounteri ng The Cramps and Michael Berryman from "The Hills Have Eyes" alo ng the way. Conversely, "I Don't Want Wanna Grow Up" and "Spiderm an" are the embodiment of truth in marketing, da bruddahs finding themselves reincarnated as comic book and animated cartoon chara cters, respectively. As with any Rhino project, the packaging is impeccable and for long-time fans may be the only reason to s pring for this one, if a 50-page, oversized comic book featuring the art of Sergio Aragones, Bill Griffith, John Holmstrom, Mary F leener, Xaime Hernandez and others turns your crank that is. By this time, it's probably safe to answer Dick Miller's puzzled question in "Rock & Roll High School" that yes, their parents do know they are/were Ramones. "Weird Tales" does its damnedest to l et the rest of the world in on the secret, offering up a golden t icket into their hermetically-sealed universe of celebratory dysf unction. Hardly essential for the faithful, but a tantalizing lit tle package for collector scum. AMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW Excellent COllection, November 12, 2007 By Bert Simpson "grand masterspam" (PA) Rhino puts out records no one else will, and though other people have put out great Ramones compilations befor e, not with 85 songs, comic books, CD glasses and a DVD. In other words, this is the best Ramones collection ever put together. An d I can't agree with anyone who accused them of being greedy when they offer this much for the price of under 50 cents a song, wit h tons of freebies. Great song choice, great remastering. Thi s was a work of love. Johnny made the choices, but Rhino didn't t ry to cut corners or run up the price. This is the ultimate Ramon es collection, no holds barred. AMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW Hey Ho, Let's Go, June 23, 2006 By Dr. Marc Mayerson (Woodland Hills, CA USA) One of my biggest regrets is that I never saw the Ramones live. That I didn't recognize their amazing work was not because I was too young--in fact I was in my 20's--but rather because I, like most everyone in the 70's, was rock-n-roll shang hai'd by the mellow sounds of Linda Ronstadt, the Doobie Brothers , the Eagles, and other lethargic slicksters. It wasn't that I wa sn't exposed to them; it's just that I dismissed them hastily as another "oldies" band like Sha-Na-Na, albeit with a harder edge. How could I have been so blind? At their core, the Ramones brough t fast-tempo back to rock-n-roll---rapid fire 1/16th notes not he ard since At The Hop, Great Balls of Fire, or Lucille. To that, t hey married a Warhol-esque world view and a Beach Boys liturgy of adolescent fun. The result was a reinvention of everything that made rock and roll great, and it was only a matter of time before anyone who loves it would discover the best band since The Beatl es, The Kinks and The Rolling Stones. AMAZON.COM CUSTOMER RE VIEW the world's best 'cartoon' band???, September 16, By Thomas D. Ryan "American Hit Network" (New York) For decades , I've been fighting the good fight, trying to protect the Ramone s from the ignoramus brigade who insisted on seeing them as a 'ca rtoon' band. I've argued incessantly with people who refused to s ee past the band's superficial image by pointing out specific son gs with real human depth and spirit. I thought it was ridiculous for anybody to claim they were fans of the band if they only saw the image and not the individuals. For me, the pudding-bowl hairc uts and torn jeans with leather jackets displayed a camaraderie t hat linked the members of the Ramones in an 'us-against-the-world ' battle for recognition. They were a musical 'gang' with four in tensely strong personalities. Usually, I might as well have been talking to a wall. And now, this box set totally destroys my argu ment. Like every other band that has become a part of history , the Ramones have their very own box set. To my surprise, though , the box doesn't avoid the cartoonish image that bedeviled the b and. Instead, it celebrates it! Looking at the package, though, I have to admit that my previous perspective was churlish, because this is one of the coolest box set packages I have ever seen. Jo hnny Ramone compiled three disks of monumental rock and roll -85 songs - shortly before his death, and they tell quite a story. Ac companying the music is a truly brilliant and beautiful 52-page c omic book anthology that paints the band as the pop culture icons they always were, and that I so adamantly denied. The fourth dis k is a DVD containing 14 videos, along with some darkly humorous interview segments. Note that the DVD here is NOT the same as the "End of the Century" documentary that was released a few months ago. All in all, this is a beautiful package, and a fitting l egacy for the band that it celebrates. Now, the Ramones have thei r own comic book, packaged in their very own box set, and all the people I argued with about their image can point to it and say " I told you so". So I was wrong. So what? The music is what really matters, and this box contains some vital stuff....and I must ad mit, the comic book is pretty damn cool, too. A- Tom Ryan
