Ramones – The Sire Albums (7-LP Vinyl)

$179.95

The later Sire years get overlooked in favor of the band's late-'70s blitzkrieg, but this stretch captures the Ramones pushing against their own formula, enlisting producers like Phil Spector and working with Ed Stasium and Jean Beauvoir along the way. Brain Drain, their final Sire record, would prove to be Dee Dee's last studio album with the band, making this box a document of an era that ended a chapter.


A seven LP box set of albums (Pleasant Dreams, Subterranean Jungle, Too Tough To Die, Animal Boy, Halfway To Sanity, Brain Drain) and a neon pink splatter vinyl LP of rarities, all pressed on vinyl for the first time since their original release. Presented in a numbered slipcase with a sticker sheet included.
