Joey Ramone

Joey Ramone was one of the early pioneers of the punk rock movement of the 1970’s, yet his loud, fast, and straight-forward music has never gone out of style. He remains today one of the classic rock figures of all time, and he has cemented his place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Joey Ramone, the late lead singer of The Ramones and one of the founders of the group, penned many of their most well-known songs, including Blitzkrieg Bop (1976), Rockaway Beach (1977), and Beat On The Brat (1976). His version of What a Wonderful World was released posthumously on his only solo album, Don’t Worry About Me (2002), and was notably used in Michael Moore’s groundbreaking documentary Bowling for Columbine (2002).
