The Ramones were the hard-hitting New York punk band that erupted in 1974 and grew to become the archetype of American punk rock. From their beginnings in Queens and the burgeoning punk scene at CBGB's, through the excitement of their first album, a brush with the unhinged genius of Phil Spector and more than two thousand concerts over a 22 year period, The Ramones always were a force to be reckoned with. This is their full story told in dramatic graphic style by acclaimed graphic artists Jim McCarthy and Brian Williamson. Gabba Gabba Hey covers it all: the endless feuds between band members, the tragic deaths of three founding members, their immense influence on British bands like The Sex Pistols and The Clash, their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and finally a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.
