LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

• Brilliant performance live at My Father’s Place
• Includes the entire WLIR-FM broadcast
• It’s presented here together with background notes and images.

Ramones, live at My Father’s Place, New York on 20th July 1982.

The Ramones released no new album in 1982, but continued to gig prolifically, despite problems within their ranks. Joey and Marky were battling alcoholism, while Dee Dee was in the grip of cocaine addiction, meaning that Johnny was taking more musical control. They were still a formidable live force, as this superb performance attests. Originally broadcast on WLIR 92.7 FM, it’s presented here with background notes and images.
