That whole myth about punk born in England reminded me of a story about The Ramones going to UK for the first time and Johnny threatening to beat The Clash for stealing their style 😂
"Beach Boys on bath salts" An absolutely brilliant Ramones analogy.
The funny thing is that after leaving the ramones Dee Dee joined GG Allin's band just long enough to sober up for a few hours and realize that GG was a total psychopath then run away as fast as his feet could carry him.
Motorhead and the Ramones are soooooooo iconic that they are the roots of thrash. The ORIGINALS. All punk bands OWE the Ramones, a huge debt of gratitude. They started the modern punk movement. Not the Pistols. Sorry London YOU didn't invent punk rock or the movement. It started in the bowls of New York city. Motorhead did invent thrash or gave birth to it. Either way both bands got it right the first time. God Bless them both. R.I.P.
That whole shit about a band writing the same song over and over again.... there are examples of that for sure...... but fuckin a... acdc didn't write the same song over and over again they had a formula. That would be like saying lovecraft wrote the same story over and over again
“Murder of communists by: fellow communists.” That’s awesome.
Robert plant is still lost!

That shot you took at Robert Plant was gold.
The Music/Metal Mythos series is infinitely superior to any VH1 Documentary.
“Even RAZOR Ramon was checking his brakes before starting his car.”
1990s: oh americas full of censorship and Europe is totally free
I got to see The Ramones during the 1996 Lollapalooza tour, close to one of their final performances. Even at the end, they were a force of fucking nature. As the last note of each song was still sustaining, CJ would count off the next song, and then BOOM! They were the real deal.
You, my friend, are a genius. You have an undeniable talent when it comes to delivering material using this format. Well done.
I like this guy. "The Black Sabbath of punk." Sabbath created metal and Ramones created punk. I've seen both bands live and I've played CBGBs. He speaks the truth.

Amazing video. You are a great speaker and a smart dude. As far as the Ramones go, I will confidently say that next to the Beatles, they are the most influential band in rock history. No exaggeration. Next to the Beatles (and maybe even more so), they are responsible for more youngsters picking up musical instruments. They proved that you didn't need to be a virtuoso in order to play in a band. They showed everyone that it was all about the songs. In my opinion, the two most important pieces of the Ramones puzzle were the songs and Johnny Ramone's guitar style. For nearly 50 years, countless players have been trying to recreate his style and sound, yet his playing is still easily identifiable. Based on what he did, you'd think that it would be easy to recreate. No, it isn't. The dude was a machine. Even more than the crazy level of endurance and great tone he presented was his absolutely perfect timing and consistency. The dude must have had an eternally running, internal metronome in his head. Every downstroke was perfectly in time. Like a lot of people like to refer to him, his consistency was truly like that of a machine gun. I could go on and on about how good that dude was. A lot of ppl say, 'well he didn't play many leads'. Well, he didn't have to. He didn't want to. He served the song. Just think about this....a ton of super crazy good, virtuoso level players declare Johnny as one of their biggest influences. .These guys regard him as a crazy good player, so he is! If Paul Gilbert says that Johnny was 'that' good, he was THAT good.
I will never understand why people complain about an artist's work being consistent. I totally understand if the work is genuinely lazy or uninspired, but if it's just a big block of music that sounds similar, with plenty of effort and merit in every song, then that's one of the best things ever to me. Especially when it's, as you pointed out, a big block that was all produced at roughly the same time. The ability to consistently create that much awesome music with such a distinct sound in such a short span of time is nothing short of admirable.
I completely agree with your point about Judas Priest's twin guitar attack being integral to heavy metal but I'd say the way Iron Maiden approached drums, both playing and recording, was equally important. They were the ones who discovered the odd fact that mixing your drums very loud also makes the guitars sound louder. Very important element of heavy metal production. Black Sabbath albums are, from a mixing/recording standpoint, rock albums from the ground up.
