The Ramones must now rank as one of the most brilliant prototypes ever. The New York band helped spark British punk in the 70s, inspired US hardcore through the 80s and 90s, and now once more their popularity has resurfaced due to the recent deaths of Joey and Dee Dee Ramone. One of the earliest photographers to work with the Ramones was Chip Dayton, a regular visitor to the now legendary CBGBs club in New York where the Ramones played regularly to audiences including the likes of Andy Warhol. An original collection of photographs spanning the band's history from the early days through to the height of their success. Includes previously unpublished photographs. Points of Interest: Interest in The Ramones is not only enduring but has recently experienced a surge with an official street renaming - "Joey Ramone Place" in New York City, a powerful 2004 documentary The Ramones: The End Of The Century, and the tragic death of Dee Dee Ramone.
