Lot of soul searching for me on this one. The 1st Ramones LP and the 3rd, Rocket to Russia are amongst my all time favs. Their influence cannot be overstated I think on the history of rock music. All that said, Jake Browning sucks, and Springsteen has mor great albums and a creative peak that lasted much longer- i.e, 1973- 87. Ramones started to run out of good ideas after only a few years.

Christ - this is an NIT matchup.

Wood smash 18 year old Courtney Cox though. Perky nips.

The rock intelligentsia / punditry doesn't agree and there's where a lot of these ranking are coming from. Not saying they are right, so don't twist.

For a shitty guitar player he's fucking arrogant about it. Bruce can shred though and fans rarely get to witness it.

@Doog_de_Jour I thought our forbidden love had a chance until I saw you vote for Springsteen.
