The Ramones ignited the punk-rock movement with their eponymous 1976 debut album, revitalizing rock and roll at one of its lowest ebbs with attitude, energy and a loud, fast new sound. By cutting music down to its bare essentials – four chords; a simple, catchy melody; a sped up tempo and irresistibly inane lyrics, the Ramones blazed the trail for thousands of bands that followed, influencing everyone from The Clash and The Sex Pistols to Green Day and The Offspring. Although The Ramones never achieved mainstream financial success, they released 21 live and studio albums, had a devoted fan base and were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2002.

"...the Ramones and this album have gone on to be considered one of the most important acts in rock history, establishing punk rock as a legitimate genre and holding an influence on most other forms of hard-riffing guitar music. What better way to celebrate the fourth decade of this landmark recording than for Warner specialist label Rhino to turn it into an immense 78-track triple album? Disc one offers the original 14-track album in all its glory, all 29 minutes worth of the buzzsaw guitar, bubblegum lyrics and frenetic 1-2-3-4 counts that helped to craft and define an entire genre of music of come. Essentially, that would most likely be enough right there – it’s a recording that’s pretty well perfect already in its execution and overall statement of intent. An album doesn’t get crowned with the mantle of one of the all time best without, you know, actually being that. Rhino, of course, doesn't believe you could be satisfied with just that, and also pack in a mono version of the album (it’s the same, but in mono!), another disc worth of single mixes and outtakes and two versions of the same live performance from August 1976." - Brian Griffin, Loud
