*DISCLAIMER* this episode of PERSONALITY CRISIS was originally aired on community radio station J-AIR 88FM in August 2024 and is solely intended for educational purposes.
With the 50 year anniversary of PUNK Magazine fast approaching (November 28th), it’s only fitting that we honour the half Jewish band that took classic rock and roll melodies and made them faster and more exciting than anyone could have imagined.
As a punk-rock band, heavy on the rock, the Ramones were the juxtaposition to the hippie mentality of the day, with just enough darkness to draw the outsiders in.
Thank you Ramones for forever associating a leather jacket, jeans and sneakers with cool.
