Format:Audio CD
This album is far better than their previous last official live album, 'Loco Live'. The sound quality is better, the energy levels higher and you get a real sense that they are playing for their lives, rather than going through the motions of another tour. It really was the last show and you can sense the importance of the performance when you listen to it.

What can be said that already hasn't about The Ramones...hmmmm
As a live album this is no classic, but if you're a long standing Ramones fan, as I am, it will probably take you back a few years.
Joey no longer has "that voice". It's much deeper and raunchier, but it gives you the feeling he's still experimenting and giving it all for one last time. As I've said in other reviews, it is evident that his lymphoma is/has taken it's toll. Some of the songs are practically "hummered" through, but again this also adds to the charm oddly enough. Songs that stand out are, KKK took my baby away, I Wanna be Sedated, Spiderman, Pet Semetary and the final 8 or so renditions, typically the finalé with Eddie Vedder, "Any way you want it".
Johnny really piles on the guitarwork and Marky's drumming is simply outstanding keeping up. The much under-rated CJ adds a welcome breath of fresh air with his vocals.
DeeDee, unfortunately, disappoints with Love Kills, whereas Lemmy gives a good R.A.M.O.N.E.S.
For Die-hard Ramones fans.
Gabba gabba hey!

The Ramones' THIS IS IT

Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This album reminds Loco Live alot. I think I like Loco Live a bit more because of its set, but they both good.
Just like Loco Live, If you're just getting familiar with the Ramones, leave it for now. If you're an "advanced" Ramones fan, I think you'll enjoy it.
Now more about the CD itself: I think Joey's voice is still good. Johnny's guitar just can't sound bad. Same goes with Marky and CJ. The songs here are VERY VERY VERY fast. Some will say that they are way too fast. Well, sometimes I agree, but sometimes I like to hear that way. Of course, this is not It's Alive or NYC 1978, but if you don't have a problem with the "late Ramones", you will really enjoy this one. :-)

What can I say? The last show ever by the mighty Ramones. It's everything you'd expect including great guest appearances by Dee Dee, (Love Kills)Lemmy, (R.A.M.O.N.E.S.) and not so great - Lars from Rancid on 53rd and 3rd and Eddie Vedder inexpicably sharing the stage during the Ramones last song on stage ever- "Anyway you want it" Bittersweet, awesome and totally Ramones
ramones farwell show

this is from the bands farwell show back in 1996. features special guests such as lemmy from motorhead eddy vedder from pearl jam, dee dee ramone who missed 1 verse and started early in his song love kills. it was a great show too bad the whole show wasn't put on VHS. the VHS tape is not the full show just a few songs from the show + interviews from everyone who knew the ramones.
