Dude, I'm a huge Ramones fan. I'm sure you've seen this, but if not, this is my favorite live set from them, NYE 1977. The first song they play here, "Blitzkrieg Bop" just absolutely slams. My favorite of all time. https://youtu.be/Sp3zaeOyL7Q

My pleasure, Jason! I always love sharing that video with a fellow Ramones fan and it’s always cool when the person has never seen it before. It’s so damn good! Also, that’s the video from what became their “It’s Alive” live album.

Great piece. If you can find it, check out John Hiatt's live cover (I have it on a bootleg) with David Immergluck playing mandolin. It's a classic.
