The Ramones' April 1976 debut long ago passed into legend. Its exalted status as the inspiration for thousands of punk bands worldwide, though, hasn't overshadowed its monolithic roar, the knowing hilarity of its lyrics and the impulse to blast it for everyone within earshot: Hey, listen to this. Embracing and rewriting rock & roll history at once, Ramones speeded up heavy music, adding a pop patina to songs inspired by horror movies and glue sniffing, and claiming a great Chris Montez tune from the supposedly fallow period that had fallen between Elvis and the Beatles. Absurdist, yeah and also smart: "Havana Affair" is the greatest song about the cold war this side of Dylan.
