RAMONES - Sheena Is A Punk Rocker 7'' 1977

Classic stuff now by the Ramones (R.I.P.) and from their 3rd Album 'Rocket To Russia' this 7inch reached # 81 in the Billboard Hot 100. Sheena is a Punk Rocker was written by lead singer Joey Ramone. The lyrics is about a young outsider who does not like other teenagers visited nightclubs because she is a "Punk Rocker", crude, wild and sexy. Like 'Rockaway Beach' is 'Sheena Is A Punk Rocker' one of the most popular and famous songs of the Ramones. It was - according to 'Judy Is A Punk' from the debut album - one of the first pieces of music which had the dominant genre term "punk" in the title. I Don't Care is a three chords and minimal text composition and is a song which was originally recorded for the first Ramones album, moreover one of the very first tunes that the group had ever written. The Ramones were an American rock band that formed in the New York City neighborhood of Forest Hills, Queens, in 1974. They are often cited as the first punk rock group. Despite achieving only limited commercial success, the band was a major influence on the punk rock movement in both the United States and the United Kingdom. I think you need no further info about band & music. Ramones are minimalist and melodic "Three Chord PunkRock" with humorous and absurd lyrics. So this copy is the german edition.
