Editorial Reviews

From Amazon.co.uk
Like most true originals, the Ramones embodied a dizzying array of contradictions. As punk godfathers, they became the archetype for a rebellious musical ethos that could often confuse the baby for the bath water, yet at heart they were 1960s pop- and bubblegum-worshipping reactionaries. The seeming unity symbolized by their street-hood uniform (ripped jeans, deck shoes, and black leather jackets) and name (nicked from an early nom de plume of Beatle Paul) belied turmoil both personal and personnel. And the dumber-than-dumb stance of the likes of "Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue", "Cretin Hop", and "Teenage Lobotomy" actually masked some of the shrewdest rock ever recorded. If Rhino/Warner Archive's two-disc anthology seems like hardly enough room to document a band with a quarter-century legacy, it's good to remember that the Ramones prided themselves on stripping every song they attempted to its elemental core, then halving it again with their patented buzzsaw, double-stop tempo. Journalist David Fricke's enclosed history is telling, if ironically packaged in a glossy hard-back edition that seems more befitting the likes of Fleetwood Mac. The nearly five dozen tracks here, reaching from the early 1970s to the late '90s, stand remarkably outside of time--just like true originals. --Jerry McCulley

Un Essentiel amazon.fr
Personne ne s'y entend mieux que les archivistes de Rhino quand il s'agit de compiler. Sous une pochette minimale terrible qui rappelle la photo en noir et blanc du premier album éponyme agrémentée d'un lettrage rose du plus bel effet, se cache un condensé de la carrière des turbulents mauvais garçons new-yorkais que sont les Ramones. Le titre en est d'ailleurs emblématique (au moins autant que leur slogan "Gabba Gabba Hey") qui est extrait de l'hymne "Blitzkrieg Bop" paru en 1976. Beaucoup est rassemblé ici, du meilleur de la fin des années 70 (l'âge d'or) aux années 80 et même après. On retiendra surtout les titres des premiers albums, dont Leave Home et Rocket To Russia, typiques d'un certain retour (alors salutaire) au rock'n'roll dont n'est pas exclu l'humour, croisement d'agressivité punk et d'amateurisme comme le préconisait la fameuse devise d'alors : Do it yourself! Dans les 80's, les Ramones tenteront de décrocher la timbale en travaillant avec des producteurs chevronnés, de la trempe de Phil Spector, Graham Gouldman (de 10cc) ou Dave Stewart (d'Eurythmics : une erreur de parcours). Ce coffret est indispensable à qui n'aurait pas l'intégrale. Pour les autres, l'épais livret en forme de livre vaut de casser la tirelire. Notons que Rhino a par ailleurs réédité avec moult inédits et démos les excellents (à redécouvrir absolument pour certains à tort décriés) End Of The Century, Pleasant Dreams, Subterranean Jungle et Too Tough To Die. --Philippe Robert
