Disappointing
I first listened to the Ramones (on a vinyl record) when I was a skateboarding-teenager. I was immediately hooked on their sound. But I went to college, got a job, got married, went to graduate school, and the Ramones became a receding memory (kind?a like my hair). Well, last night, after all these years, I bought "End of the Century". What a terrible mistake on my part. This album is not a fair representation of the sound that I remember. If you are, like I was, looking to buy a recording to enjoy, once again, the sound of the early Ramones that still pound away in your head you might want to buy another album. "End of the Century" will probably disappoint you.
