"I'll always give this album extra credit because I played it to death in high school. It seems they never matched this. Don't assume it's only Runaway Train. There's plenty of catchy alt-rock here. Too bad they were overshadowed by Seattle." Reply

"If you're a Ramones fan or a fan of 70's punk this is a no brainer. Great 1977 New Years Eve show at the height of the Ramones power. Original 4 Johnny Joey Tommy and Dee Dee. This is well recorded, sonically great and so so satisfying. One of the greatest live albums EVER and my personal favorit..." [+] Reply

"First half is pretty corny IMO. I get that Joey didn't want his message to get lost in translation but I feel like I'm getting beat over the head. Lyrically the second half is a lot better but the production is lacking compared to the first half. I wish Joey mixed his modern sound with his 90s so..." [+] Reply

"The concept and aesthetic of this album could of easily collapsed into a self-ingulgent pretension mess, but thankfully this is not the case. A truly terrifying and brutally sincere performance." Reply

"Understandably overshadowed by what would come later from the Mk II version of the band. However, this is a very solid debut album that the Mk I version of the band would never be able to top. Hush, Mandrake Root, Help!, and Hey Joe are all great." Reply
