The Ramones final studio release ¡Adios Amigos! was released. I've hoped for a deluxe version of this album but am doubtful it will happen. The recent CJ Ramone auction has given a better idea of what that release could look like though. One of the items is a cassette tape featuring demos and rehearsals as well as 2 unreleased tracks.

1. "Take the Pain Away" (Dee Dee vocals)
2. "Cretin Family" (Dee Dee vocals)
3. "It’s For Me to Know" (CJ vocals)
4. "Makin’ Monster for My Friends" (Dee Dee vocals)
5. "Born to Die in Berlin" (Dee Dee vocals)
6. "Got a Lot to Say" (CJ Vocals)
7. "Scattergun" (CJ vocals)
8. "Maybe Tomorrow" [Unreleased] (CJ???? vocals)
9. "Have a Nice Day" (CJ??? Vocals)
10. "She Talk to Rainbows" (Joey scratch vocals)
11. "Life’s a Gas" (Joey scratch vocals)
12. "A Perfect Day in June" [Unreleased] (Joey scratch vocals)

The above listed tracks with Dee Dee on vocals along with the 2 previously unreleased tracks and a live show would make this a must own for fans.

Marky Ramone's autobiography Punk Rock Blitzkrieg: My Life as a Ramone was published. Here's the review from my blog that I wrote in March 2015.

 

With Marky Ramone - October 2014

As previously written about here I'm a Ramones fan. Beyond the music I've become interested in what was going on behind the scenes. Along with the excellent liner notes included in the band's remastered catalog, the documentary End of the Century: The Story of the Ramones, Dee Dee and Johnny's memoirs and tour manager Monte Melnick's On the Road with the Ramones we now have the latest (and possibly final?) word on the Ramones from someone who lived it. Marky Ramone's Punk Rock Blitzkrieg: My Life as a Ramone covers his entire run as drummer for the band and much much more.
