He was limited..but effective. Any decent guitar players can 'play' Ramones songs...but making it sound like JR is difficult. He is like the Ringo of punk rock.
Nobody can downstroke all night like Johnny... not Jimi, not EVH ,not Yngwie.

Totally tough to get right
@@vitohwthe Ramones didn’t stop between songs very often. Also, the band played everything ten times faster live than on the records. No way Hetfield could go for an hour almost straight going that fast.
@@vitohw Hetfield doesn’t downstroke complete barre chords like John.
Yes Johnny Ramone was a good guitarist. Id like to see someone play downstrokes that fast on a stage for 90 mins! On a side note im watching this on the 19th anniversary of his death. RIP to the legend!
I agree 1000% about the downstrokes! That is definitely no easy feat. And yes, R.I.P. Johnny ❤
I never saw them play longer than an hour. Not that it matters much, I was just saying. Nobody could hang with him for that long with hardly any breaks between songs
90 minutes? Did they play every song they knew 3 times?
When it comes to music, originality is more important to me than having a high level of technical prowess. Would Chuck Berry be able to play a Steve Vai tune? Could Angus Young perform with a math rock or death metal band? Probably not. Doesn't change the fact that they're both legends. Most guitarists are musically limited to a specific style.
I completely agree!
Johnny's right hand !!
He was the personification of American (right-wing) (make it fast, simple, effective...and profitable). Johnny was that from the first minute... he never felt good among musicians and "rockers", he was a simple worker, and the guitar was his tool. He only did down strokes and fifths, but he became so professional that it takes years to sound like him. When you spend years doing the same thing, his work ends up being... artisanal, like his splendid "noise."
Johnny was definitely one of the greatest legends in rock n roll history other than Keith Richards and Chuck Berry. His guitar playing skills were super killer!!! 🎸🤘
yes
I beg to differ. Johnny Ramone was the best ever!🎸
The best hands down! GABBA GABBA HEY!
Original!🎸👍🏽
Johhny hated solos
No
It's amazing that there are still people who think that if you speed up Beach Boys songs you'll get punk rock. Would punk exist without the Ramones? Undoubtedly. In Britain, no one named these shit-eaters among their influences. Compare the playing of Johnny, who has raped the same interval from left to right and right to left throughout his career, to any album by a British punk band. Many had more variety in one song than these idiots had in several albums. Did they create punk? Definitely not. Did they influence the emergence of punk? Don't think so.
Damn, show us where they touched you? Problem here is, Ramones was the Beach Boys rock period on steroids and they were better than the British punk seen by a long mile. I'm sorry they hurt you, but you're wrong on so many levels.
It's amazing that someone has an opinion without knowledge and isn't ashamed to voice it.
"Their album had just come out and it had a huge impact on the metal side of punk. A lot of British bands wanted to sound like that. Everyone sped up afterwards."
-Jean-Jacques Burnel (The Stranglers)
"If that Ramones records hadn't existed, I don't know that we could have built a scene here because it filled a vital gap between the death of the old pub rocking scene and the advent of punk."
-Joe Strummer (The Clash)
"Sid Vicious was a massive fan. He tried to imitate them with his playing, but they were a lot faster."
- Paul Cook (Sex Pistols)
"The Ramones ...without whom there might never have been a Clash, Damned or Sex Pistols. Their music is up there with Beethoven, Bolan and the Beatles, fantastic stuff indeed! RIP Johnny Ramone."
- Damned
"All we had was the first Ramones album, and that inspired all of us."
-Steve Diggle (Buzzcocks)
"Everybody went up three gears the day they got that first Ramones album. Punk rock-that rama-lama super fast stuff-is totally down to the Ramones. Bands were just playing in an MC5 groove until then."
-Tony James (Generation X)
"I think the Ramones were probably the most influential band on that whole British scene as well. We went to see them and we thought, Wow, that's great. It was in-your-face rock 'n' roll, not dressing up and wearing silly masks and trying to look like a spaceman or anything."
-10 Albums That Changed My Life: John 'Eddie' Edwards of The Vibrators
The central fanzine of the early UK punk scene, Sniffin' Glue, was named after the song "Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue", which appeared on the debut LP.
Also see "When The Clash Met The Ramones: The Rise Of English Punk" by Elizabeth Greatrex, "These 10 bands showcase the Ramones' undying influence on music" by Alternative Press Magazine and "The night that punk went overground- July 4th 1976- an oral account" from Louder Than War.
I didn't need to talk about the hardcore bands.
There would be no punk rock period without the American garage bands of the '60's (and before them rock in roll and rockabilly). I remember British punk bands being in awe of the Ramones. The Beach Boys were pretty good too.
