The RAMONES - M.P.S.C.'s TV Studio 1976 ("Arturo's Loft") - REMASTERED AUDIO

What kind of chords does Johnny play from 8:45 to 8:55 ?? He is not using his index finger

[@HardlyRamone]

@@riccardopaolocci1497 Open E, Open D, Open A. Check put my guitar cover of 53rd & 3rd to see it clearer

[@riccardopaolocci1497]

@@HardlyRamone In 53rd and 3rd and in cretin hop, how do you play the open D chord? Do you play an F# on the high E string, do you play it open, or you mute it? Also, when you play the open A, you play also both the low e string and the high e string, right?

[@HardlyRamone]

@@riccardopaolocci1497 Just the standard F# on the high E with the D chord. I don’t play the low E in the A chord there, but Johnny did do that in some songs. I do get the high E though

I was not aware of that....wow. But one thing I always had a problem with...the Ramones or the Sex Pistols getting most, if not all the credit as in some cases, for the type of music when it was already a thing before either band started. (I do love the Ramones though.)

Late reply, but this is the footage you’re thinking of. It’s from August 1974, one month before the more well known CBGB footage. It’s from a movie called Night Lunch. Im not sure if more footage exists. It’s about 37 seconds of I don’t Care. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqmTnJVvjL56fsksi=X24WRS9Wo348car2

Does anyone knows what were the amps Johnny and Dee Dee were using here?

[@masbeer]

According to the biography, they started with some really crappy Mike Matthews amps. Then after the record company kicked in with some money, Johnny used Marshall and Dee Dee bought an Ampeg.

[@SouthernVersion]

Johnny is playing through a Mike Matthew’s “Freedom Quad Amp” its a 4x10” solid state combo amp, 1 of only 2 made. The other one is actually off camera used for Joey’s lead vocals. So the Ramones had the only 2 of those amps ever made. Mike Matthew’s produce smaller versions of those amp. Many are still around. Dee Dee is playing through a Kustom K-250-1 solid state amp head with a matching 2x15” cabinet. Wonder what happened with this amp. We may never know. :(

[@GugaRamone]

@@SouthernVersion Mike Mathews, the same EHX guy? Cool! Funny how, even using a complete different setup, with solid state amps and different sized speakers, they still keep that signature sound.

And the Ramones are pretty tame when it comes to government. They weren't anti-government, but they were highly critical of it (for example, Bonzo Goes to Bitburg). If you're thinking of anti-government punk you should be thinking of people like GG Allin.
