- This great video is shot in August 1977. Just a few months before releasing Rocket To Russia. It also has the best live footage of Johnny's blue Mosrite, but also one of his sprare guitars Rickenback.
The order of the songs is not correct, songs have been deleted for TV ( you can see an intro to Pinhead but muted)
It would be great of someone knows all the songs actualy played and the correct order. Maybe a tape with all the songs exist? However this is still a master piece, it captured the ramones at their prime.
1. Intro
2. Sheena Is A Punk Rocker
3. Loudmouth
4. Beat On The Brat
5. Blitzkrieg Bop
6. Listen To My Heart
7. California Sun
8. Judy Is A Punk
9. I Don't Wanna Walk Around With You
10. Glad To See You Go
11. Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment
12. Rockaway Beach
13. Commando
Info: Has timecode on screen. Big upgrade compared to the other versions in circulation.
Tommy's drumming is genius. a guitarist playing drums and creating a drumming technique/style that was absolutely perfect for the music the band was creating....it was all such a magical convergence of odd people, with odd ideas and limited technical ability in which everything each member put toward the overall sound/identity of the band was the EXACT ingredient necessary to bring everything together into a unique/powerful/cohesive musical machine. Tommy's drumming is so killer. Sure, he may not have any of the technical ability or chops or versatility as a drummer BUUUUUUUUT, every single song that he was the original/recording drummer on is never better than the way that Tommy originally played/recorded it. Listen to this set....his style of playing adds so much dynamically to the sound and, every snare, cymbal and (occasional) tom he plays is for a significant reason.
Marc Bell is a phenomenal drummer and is capable of playing a wide range of styles/techniques (the difference between DUST, The VOIDOIDS, Wayne County, etc...and. of course, THE RAMONES) but, as great an addition he was when Tommy quit...he did bring his own feel to the older songs and, pretty much from the moment he joined the band, Johnny was into his "we can do the set 52 seconds faster" phase where he kinda forced the entire band to pummel through a whole lot of the nuance and dynamics that were nothing complex BUUUUUT, these bits (the majority driven by Tommy's drumming) were really important to the brilliance of the first few landmark 5-Star masterpiece LPs.
Apologies for the essay...but, you can REALLY hear EVERYTHING that Tommy is playing here and, you can clearly notice when he is pushing the band into another gear or, pushing them to lock into his relentlessly solid and somewhat mechanical overdriven cruise control...accenting important changes with simple and distinct cymbal crashes and/or some quick floor tom maneuver that slides right back into the 8th note marathon which is his signature bit...I'm surprised that he didn't have Popeye arms from playing those never-ending 8th notes.
Genius
This was the Ramones I fell in love with in 1978, still in School, 14 years old, not the late 80’s/90’s pinky and perky 78 rpm sound.
For years we've had the incomplete version of Musikladen and US festival 1982, maybe one day the full version of this will rise up.
The full set for the US festival is online now but it's badly cropped. Hopefully a better video source emerges at some point. I believe the complete version of Musikladen has been available for a while now
the Ramones are amazing here.. someone should edit the sound to take out the fake applause and cheers... gets in the way
timed set list:
Sheena 0:19
Loudmouth 2:44
Brat 4:36
Blitzkrieg Bop 7:00
Heart 9:22
California Sun 11:02
Judy 12:53
Walk Around With You 14:10
See Ya Go 15:52
Shock Treatment 17:44

Gimmie Gimme Shock Treatment
Sheena Is a Punk Rocker
Rockaway Beach
Commando
Listen To My Heart
California Sun
I Don't Wanna Walk Around with You
Pinhead (omitted)
maybe they did more songs
Great to see the entire circulating show in such high quality! There is another group of videos in similar quality, however it is missing blitzkrieg bop.
great set
Amazing!
That guitar... its a chainsaw
The complete set was 14 songs as stated by Johnny in his book. He had a string broken on the blue Mosrite, but was not allowed to change the string. This is why we see the back-up guitar. Intresting to find out to know the 3 other songs. Pinhead was included, you can hear this at the fade-out.
What city was this recorded, performed?
