Ramones-It's Alive.
For about fifty four minutes, you will be in heaven. Nothing will bother you. Pure bliss. The greatest punk band of all time is the Ramones and the greatest punk live album of all time is "It's Alive."
If you are a baseball fan you will know that there is nothing more exciting than watching a no hitter live at the ball park. In the 9th inning everything gets very quiet and 20,000 people do not say a word as they are fully entranced in the moment. These moments are rare in life, but I know that if you were there for any one of the four concerts in England at the time this album was recorded, you were feeling the same way.
It's Alive is a five star masterpiece with no bad songs (it's the Ramones after all). It is a live album that puts you there every time you hear it. From the opening "We're the Ramones this one's called Rockaway Beach" to "We'd like to thank you all for coming, good night!" and every song in between you are in total ecstasy.
This is my favorite album of all time, and one I will never, ever stop listening too.
