Hey! Ho! Let’s go! Marky Ramone is best known as the longtime drummer for the watershed punk band The Ramones. Before his “blitzkrieg” style of drumming added to the band’s driving signature sound, the drummer born Marc Bell was already a name in the New York music scene for his work with bands such as Richard Hell and the Voidoids and Dust. From “I Wanna Be Sedated” and the cult film Rock ‘n’ Roll High School to his struggles with his bandmates and alcoholism, Punk Rock Blitzkrieg is the story of a punk rock epoch from the only living Ramone in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
In conversation with Dan Deluca, Music Critic, Philadelphia Inquirer
2024 here. This is really effin' great.
The last man standing. I’m glad someone is left but I miss Joey, Johnny and Dee Dee.
CJ & Richie are still alive dude.
What about Tommy?
@@Yob98Tommy passed away
Miss them all 😢
What a wonderful bloke ! God bless you, mate ! Priceless interview !
Jimi Hendrix- I was 7 when I bumped into him while i was wondering around in the Filmore West floor , he touched my shoulder “ Hey kid you lost ? “ he asked . I said “ My mom is over there “ . He laughed and walked away talking to some other guy - I assume he was in the band or friend. He played later that night after Blue Cheer and Moby Grape 🍇 opened the show
Moby Grape is a DICK BAND MAN...🎉
Thanks for posting this. It is great to hear Mark and see how good he is doing. It is such a shame that the other guys aren't around and able to give talks like this. Just imagine Johnny up there giving a talk like this. It would be absolutely incredible. Although, the craziness and pure insanity that is going on in the world right now would drive him totally crazy. But I'm sure he would put a lot of the ignorant SJW's in their place with a vicious tongue lashing. Johnny was THE man. All of the Ramones were great. I was born in 81 and to me, they were my Beatles. Actually, they ARE my Beatles.
The two most influential rock bands ever. The Beatles and The Ramones. You can take that to the bank.
His book is great. Love the audiobook version. Listening to it again for the manyith time. Also, currently reading, I Slept with Joey Ramone. Which is also a really good book.
I played the Vatican too, Marky came into my store Pantasia Recorz the day he passed the audition and let everyone know he was in.
Awesome interview!
Love how he "😮reminded" John lydon ,when Rotten stated he wasn't an original Ramone, Marky told hi. Maybe so, but he was in Richard Hell and the void doids who Malcom McClaren was infatuated with, stole their "look" took it back to England and basically dressed the Pistols that way
"Rocket to rusher" classic east coast accent
"Everybody played the Vadigan!"
Haha yous guys stop making fun of us new yawkers, capiche?
I love it when Marky shows up on the Ryan and the Kidd live stream.
Hard to watch. So want to see Joey, Dee Dee, and Johnny again. Grew up listening to The Ramones when all my older sisters were fans and introduced me to Rock n Roll Highschool. 80's were the best times.
It paid off eating dog food in Markys early days
He's now got a lovely shiney wig😂
As he mentioned the van making it easier to get of of town (verses a tour bus), I have a feeling he dresses up like this (wig, boots, all black, etc) when representing the band so he can live hassle free in his personal life. Take all that off & put him in regular old man clothes & we would all walk past him on the street or wait in line at the deli, etc, without suspecting he was anyone special, let alone part of the Ramones.
Every member of the band talks very openly about the fact that this was/is a business.
Rock & Roll is partially based on fantasy.
Even though many of the pics we see of the Ramones r from the 70s, 80s, & 90s, the average entertainment fan doesnt really want to see their idles grow old. That kind of culture certainly adds pressure to live up to unrealistic expectations. Fans want celebrities to sustain that fantasy. At least he didnt turn his face into something else like Kenny Rogers or Madonna. Lol ✌🏻
The early NYC stuff is so classic. Of course the Ramones are at the top of that list, but so many other bands from that period were just as incredible. Television/Richard Hell and the Voidoids are still unfortunately highly underrated.
Heartbreakers
Johnny Thunders is the most underrated songwriter of all time.
Wayne county &-The Electric Chairs..w/-cva "Too Much To Dream"..Too many fell for that Velvet Goldmine done badly.."Suck'd a Cock last nite" .!Almost like the dreggs left over(s)From the post UK scenes Long After Sex P/Clash .erc.Buzzcocks..""Punk"-Doco.Ex;Prod.iggy..etc..Very good.Phil Spector was the real deal from the real places.(easy Rider'!)"To Know Him Is To Love Him" 5:31
Excellent
I love New Yorker’s accents
49:50 - Uuhhhh yea dude, you missed plenty! There's many ballads throughout their career, but right from the beginning the debut has 'I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend'...is that not a ballad?
My my kind of a girl, new girl, I want you around just to name a few
I wanna smoke a blunt with Marky.
I prefer bongs but the point stands, I'd love to burn a bowl or 5 with this guy, especially being a drummer myself
Love the greatest drummers, Richie should give the name back, all he does is cry and bitch! Thanks for the great music you gave us!!
I love Marky, but Richie was the best drummer the Ramones ever had.
interviewer: johnny had his politics
so did joey and so do you
Dave Brubeck take 5 is amazing
When I worked off Hollywood Blvd as an outdoor street vender DeeDee would come & hang out on occasion. Even though The Ramones were my favorite band we would just hang out & laugh & I didn't want people to grill him about Ramones history- again, he was just a guy hanging out & mostly we left it at that. Anyway, the one Ramones story he did proffer was just how fucking crazy Phil Specter was- & DeeDee swore up & down that the douche-bag waived a gun around. DeeDee said one thing & Mark says a slight variation. Who fucking really knows? This is the shit that makes legends grow...
Someone had to fight rotten I've heard rotten talk shit about Ramones multiple times
Rotten talks shit about everybody.
The guys from his band dust produced the first 2 kiss albums
Must be pretty lonely after losing so many close friends and being the last survivor of something as tight as the Ramones. But what do you do, right?
Funny that you assume The Ramones were close to each other lol
@@smkxodnwbwkdns8369 I´m here to amuse, at your service Hands Up. Olet oikeassa, ei minusta ole juuri mihinkään.
@@themymmelins7919 the Ramones weren’t close friends, hardly even friends, fought a lot, would go days/weeeks/months without talking even in the same tour bus they wouldn’t talk to each other. They fought all the time. It’s amazing they were together for as long as they were.
Marky was friends with Joey and Dee Dee.
@@smkxodnwbwkdns8369 merry Christmas I don't wanna fight tonight with you ☃️
Nice WIG
mhm mhm
Wiggy Ramone!!
Image is important.
Show some respect dumb fuck
No doubt about it.
I remember years ago on the Howard Stern show Joey busting Markys chops about wearing a wig.
@@noshow22Dont bust my chops. Baby. Dont bust my chops.
It’s amazing to me that he’s still rocking that ridiculous wig.
It's amazing to me that you actually care about what he may or may not be wearing on his head, although you do seem the type.
Am I the type to notice the obvious? I suppose I am. The thing about men’s hair (as I’m sure you are aware) is that it tends to become less plentiful and change colour across the lifespan. When I see a man clinging to a wig well into his seventh decade, I feel it’s worthy of comment because it implies the unreasonable expectation and we the audience still see the individual as youthful. When you consider the ridiculous ego and tenuous grip on reality that Marky is well known for, one begins to see a pattern.
@@ASM881 I could care less what people choose to wear, life's too short. You do love make-up, apparently, so maybe you're just the type of person who gets hung up on appearance. I hope you age well, for your sake. 🤷
@@GilbertSyndrome Your compassion for my well-being is duly noted. I suppose a RUclips comments section can indeed be a place where integrity is respected and common sense may prevail, with no hint of sarcasm, racism or schadenfreude.
@@ASM881 Some people need wigs, I guess, just like some people need make-up. Life's a crapshoot, so you've got to navigate it comfortably. Marky's head is the least of my worries! Cheers, enjoy your weekend. 🍻
As much as I prefer genres like hardcore punk and early thrash as the songs were much faster and harsher than normal punk rock I also apriciate some stadium rock acts like Boston foreigner Kansas Styx etc. Mainly because even tho they hace all this complex playing arrangements whatever else they always did have catchy me ribald songs and anthems. But I will say it all got very long winded and boring towards the end of its heyday that being said you could say exactly the same about punk rock when people saw tgey could make it commercial by putting together acts like divo bow wow wow culture club and all the rest of it make it campy and call it new wave and you’ll earn a fortune. So it goes to show not every genre is pure there’s always something else people latch onto when a certain musical style looses its apeal so for me when thrash got boring I switched back to hardcore punk then later got into grindcore and never looked back
Grindcore?
@@PlayerToBeNamedLater1973 grindcore rules to
@@joehobbs3277 hilarious
Tupee Ramonski
He joined them early but Tommy was the original drummer. Tommy stayed with them producing I believe but Markt was the. Better drummer.
Take the Wig of Mark 😂
Alert for new viewers, Phil Spector died Jan 16, 2021. How dumb he is to suggest Spector was not guilty!
I know a cold blooded shape shifting lizard when I see one 12 times.
Why is it such a big deal that Johnny was a Republican?
Because Joey was a whack job liberal and their views clashed. The other members were closer to Joey’s views. It’s not really a big deal that Johnny was a Republican, though.
MARKY HAIR LOOKS LIKE A WIG.....
Great observation Eagle Eye!
he was already balding in the late 70's, but it's ok! it's part of the image. happens to every aging man
"he wears a wig"!
Joey/(Howard Stern show)
It looks that way since 1981 😅
Obama, what a joke ! But other than that a great interview.
It showed that many different types of people enjoyed the Ramones.
What is the alternative? Voting for a Republican?
@@smkxodnwbwkdns8369 johnny did lol he was still punk as hell
@@leahflower9924 and no one else in the Ramones voted Republican. Joey even participated in rallies and political activism for democratic candidates. Marky voted for Obama. Dee Dee wrote a political anti-Ronald Reagan song.
@@leahflower9924 Johnny never never socialized or hung out at clubs either. He was a construction worker before the Ramones. The Ramones never saw themselves as punks.
He wasn't a Ramone that long.
He was. From 78 to 83, then from 87 to 96.
He did road to ruin
He was the drummer longer than anyone else.
When will he stop wearing that ridiculous wig?
C’mon Marky, I don’t think you know what did or did not happen. The fact no one stepping up to dispute your tall tales seems to be working for you. You remind me of my bipolar brother. Milk it for all it’s worth. Do you have a team of writer’s in ur earplug under ur wig ? Get it while u can I suppose. P.S. I know ur p.r. Rep (Jacky). Lose the wig & retire.
It's a shame that you're forced to watch interviews with such a disingenuous character.
Crap! He isnt a jazz drummer. He s a liar!
I’m sure he could do jazz drumming its just wasn’t what he is famous for
Have you heard his first band Dust? The drumming kicks ass, it's nothing like the ramones.
I’ve seen him doing all types of drumming
@@smkxodnwbwkdns8369 No
@@dragonflysutra3232 Nice but not jazz
If u ever see Marky without his wig. He looks like the dude from that movie The Hills Have Eyes. He is totally bold, he’s bumps and a big boils and acne on his head, and huge ears.
Where did you see him without it??
Is that how he looks when you wake up in his bed ?
Why were you checking him out?
