RAMONESMANIA

Holy moly! This week’s guest is none other than J Prozac himself talking about the RAMONES and his 500 bands! Heaps good! You’ll love this one. It’s a long one but we chat about records, meeting Joey Ramone, his collaboration with Bil McRackin, mixing up Blink 182 and Blanks 77, the goofiness of Boris The Sprinkler, videos, selling records we regret, and heaps more. It’s a good time!

For RAMONES fans, Ed Stasium needs no introduction. The guy is an absolute legend. He’s produced and/or engineered albums by Soul Asylum, Misfits, Living Colour, Talking Heads, and even Aussie rock heroes, Hoodoo Gurus, but, the reason you’re here is because of his work with the RAMONES. Ed worked on seven of the band’s studio albums plus the soundtrack to Rock N Roll Highschool. He’s also been heavily involved with the 40th Anniversary Deluxe Reissues, all of which so far have been amazing.

So this week I bring to you a RAMONES REWIND as this interview was one I conducted back in 2017 for my old radio show. Now, it’s here for you in all it’s glory and it’s freakin’ awesome. Ed was one of the nicest guests I’d ever had on the show and his storytelling is so entertaining and in-depth. I am so grateful for the time he donated to doing this. If you have never heard this conversation before, then trust me, you’re in for a real treat. We touch on many things and get so much insight from someone who was there, at the Phil Spector house, when all those crazy events happened. I’m so glad Ed shared these stories with us and I really hope you enjoy them too.

Hey Ho, Let’s Go with The Manges! The first episode of RAMONESMANIA for 2020 features none other than Andrea Manges; vocalist, guitarist and chief songwriter for Italy’s very own three chord rockers, The Manges. We talk all things RAMONES and it’s a jolly good time. You can join in the fun by clicking on THIS LINK.

The Manges have a new record out on September 25th which you can order directly from the label HERE. It’s the band’s fifth album and is 12 tracks of kick ass punk rock. Clocking in at around 24 minutes, it’s over before you know it. This album gets in, does the job and leaves. It’s wild. The sound is killer, it has great guitar tones, two cover tunes, and is good times. And that’s really what you want albums to be; good times. Nobody wants bad times when it comes to punk rock, right?!
