I finally had a chance to listen to the new live album over the weekend.
It's not the equal of It's Alive! (my all-time favorite live album), but I'm
happy to have it. I'd rank it third among Ramones live releases, right behind the
concert tracks on the Leave Home reissue, right above the Rock 'n' Roll High
School live tracks, and waaay above everything else.
