  • Rhino Reissues the Ramones' First Four Albums
    2011-07-11 09:13 CEST Rhino Reissues The Ramones’ First Four Albums NOW I WANNA SNIFF SOME WAX Rhino Reissues The Ramones’ First Four Albums Both Versions Available July 19 Hey, ho, let’s go. Rhino celebrates the Ramones’ indelible musical legacy with reissues of the pioneering group’s first four albums on 180-gram vinyl. Ramones, Leave Home, Rocket To Russia and Road To Ruin look amazing and come in accurate reproductions of the original packaging. More importantly, the records sound magnificent and were made using lacquers cut from the original analog masters by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering. For these releases, Rhino will – for the first time ever on vinyl – reissue the first pressing of Leave Home, which includes “Carbona Not Glue,” a track that was replaced with “Sheena Is A Punk Rocker” on all subsequent pressings. Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee and Tommy Ramone. The original line-up – along with Marky Ramone who joined in 1978 – helped blaze a trail more than 30 years ago with this classic four-album run. It’s hard to overstate how influential the group’s signature sound – minimalist rock played at maximum volume – was at the time, and still is today. These four landmark albums – Ramones (1976), Leave Home (1977), Rocket To Russia (1977) and Road to Ruin (1978) – contain such unforgettable songs as: “Blitzkrieg Bop,” “Sheena Is Punk Rocker,” “Beat On The Brat,” “Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue,” “Pinhead,” “Rockaway Beach” and “I Wanna Be Sedated.” RAMONES Side One Side Two 1. “Blitzkrieg Bop” 1. “Loudmouth” 2. “Beat On The Brat” 2.

CAMACHO From the Editor Normally in the “letter from the editor” I don’t give CREDITS a lesson. However, this month I have a topic that John Raab President & Chairman I feel needs some additional attention. Times for authors are rapidly changing. Authors are sitting on Shannon Raab bar seats at conferences, all talking about the same Creative Director thing: How do I sell more books? How can I even Romaine Reeves get someone to review the book? CFO It’s true that publishers are not backing authors Amy Lignor on book tours and they are not spending a lot of Editor marketing money on most of their titles; unless they think they have a winner, or it’s Jim Thomsen an author with a proven track record, most authors are left on their own. On the radio Copy Editor show, I’ve said hundreds of times: “Just because you write “The End” and get your book published, you are merely at the starting line, because now the real work begins.” Contributors This leads me to lesson number one: how to handle an interview. Mark P. Sadler Susan Santangelo On Suspense Radio, I’ve spoken to hundreds of authors and hundreds more at DJ Weaver conferences.

  • Timothy Mark Miller History 135 – History of the Contemporary World April 7, 2011
    Timothy Mark Miller History 135 – History of the Contemporary World April 7, 2011 Assignment: Compare and contrast the Gothic subculture with other music-related subcultures (i.e. the Hippie Movement, the Punk Movement, rock-and-roll) and discuss its social impact. The Punk Rock movement of the mid 1970’s was the precursor to the Goth Rock movement in the late 1970’s. Even though the two music genres were strongly related, they were distinct and remain so even to this day. In fact, Goth is one of the many heirs of Punk. Goth is a sub-genre of the post-punk movement, which was also known as New Wave music. Punk and Goth have coexisted for decades and to the less discerning eye, might look the same. But to the initiated, Punks and Goths were, and continue to be, distinct social movements built upon different music, dress and socio-political ideology. The primary difference between Punk and Goth is that Punk was anti-establishment, while the Goth movement was more of a personal counter-culture movement. Counter-culture movements create patterns of behavior (norms) that are different from normal mainstream society (http://www.merriam- webster.com/dictionary/counterculture). The classic example of a counter-culture was the hippie movement in the 1960’s. Hippies did not seek to overthrow mainstream society, but create an alternative sub-culture within society that rejected pollution, the Vietnam War and the growing culture of greed (http://users.rowan.edu/~lindman/hippieintro.html). Anti-establishment movements have a different goal from counter-culture movements.
