Here's a really tasty early Ramones show for everyone. It's the one I mentioned in the comments of the last Ramones show I uploaded. This is probably the Ramones show I have that I tend to listen to the most. The setlist is great, the recording quality is top notch (especially for an audience from this time) and the band is like a machine, playing song after song with hardly a pause. Some really great stuff in this one.

I have more Ramones stuff, so if people would like me to put more up and don't mind the CD-R lineage, just let me know.

I didn't have the original files or info file, so I ripped the files using EAC in secure mode and then converted to FLAC using FLAC Frontend. I was able to find some information about this recording and have included what I found in this info file.

But this is a great audience recording that any Ramones fan should snatch up, and I did listen to all the files after converting them to FLAC to make sure there weren't any problems.

Enjoy the music!

ExtraInfo: I had something else planned for this weekend but Sunday would have been Joey Ramone's 51st
birthday. I was reading some interviews today about the impact The Ramones had on people, mostly
other musicians. Someone said that they were his Beatles.

I was pretty down on the music scene around the mid to late 70s. I had stopped seeing the Dead in
1973, which had been a staple in my life since 1970. I hated the stuff on the radio. I hated
disco. Then some friends and I walked into CBGB and saw The Ramones. I couldn't believe it.
Barely three chords but you just sort of stood there thinking, oh yeah, this is rock and roll.
This is what was missing.

CBGB was crazy. We used to try to get the booth directly under the light man, which was up on the
right side of place as I recall. CBGB was really long and narrow. Maybe 25 or 30 feet wide? Maybe
200 feet long, something like that. A really long bar.

That booth was about 25 feet from the stage and very convenient for me because I could hang the
mikes from the light stanchions. Anyway, I taped this one, probably on a Sony TC153, on October
27, 1977. Usually we saw both the early and late shows, but this day we only saw the late show
because we taped Zappa at the Palladium earlier in the evening. Busy day.

Enjoy it kids. Happy Birthday Joey. Thanks for being in my life.
