Ramones by The Ramones<\/h2>\n

Fact file<\/strong>
\nMusicians:<\/strong> Joey Ramone, Johnny Ramone, Dee Dee Ramone and Tommy Ramone. Other musicians were used in recording the album but were not credited on the album notes
\nReleased:<\/strong> 23 April 1976 (Sire Records)
\nBest chart performance:<\/strong> No. 48 in the Swedish Albums Chart, No. 111 in the US Billboard 200
\nSales:<\/strong> Not confirmed, but the album went silver (60,000 sales) in the UK and gold (500,000 sales) in the US
\nFascinating fact:\u00a0<\/strong> During their career the line-up changed and included Marky Ramone, C.J. Ramone, Richie Ramone and Elvis Ramone (aka Blondie\u2019s Clem Burke).<\/p>\n\"\"\n\n

Wh<\/span>at started off as a casual shoot for the cult New York-based magazine, Punk<\/i>, ended up as what many would describe as one of the most iconic record covers ever \u2013 an in-your-face image that dripped with attitude and rebellion. <\/span><\/p>\n

Photographer Roberta Bayley had been asked to shoot the band the Ramones for Punk magazine but her images only came into consideration for the record cover a few months later\u2026<\/p>\n

Bayley explains, \u2018It was absolutely not shot for the album cover. When that picture was taken the proposed album cover had already been taken by a professional photographer\u2026 no one liked the pictures that came out [of it]. Somebody had tried to create a kind of close-up, shadowy image which was like the Meet The Beatles [album cover], which was called With The Beatles in the UK.\u2019<\/p>\n\"\"\n

Born from desperation<\/strong>
\nhe attempt to recreate a similar style to Robert Freeman\u2019s trailblazing 1963 photograph of The Beatles was turned down by the Ramones\u2019 record company, Sire. The art direction was by Toni Wadler and, according to the founder of Punk magazine, cartoonist John Holmstrom, the Meet The Beatles-style cover idea came out \u2018horribly\u2019.<\/p>\n

Bayley recalls, \u2018The band just hated it, so they were desperate. The record was recorded and ready to come out, so they were frantically calling other photographers \u2013 Bob Gruen, Danny Fields and others. I had just taken their picture for Punk magazine \u2013 we were going to do a cover story on them\u2026 this was in the early part of February \u201976 and I think the album came out in April.<\/p>\n

So I sent them my contact sheets from that and they selected two images, one of which became the cover.\u2019 The image was shot in the Bowery neighbourhood of New York City, between Bowery Street and 2nd Street, in a place that\u2019s now known as Albert\u2019s Garden.<\/p>\n

Bayley was accompanied on the shoot by John Holmstrom, Punk magazine\u2019s \u2018resident punk\u2019 Legs O\u2019Neil and the Ramones\u2019 art director, Arturo Vega. It shows the four original Ramones, now, sadly, all deceased, standing against a wall \u2013 positioned from left to right were: Johnny, Tommy, Joey and Dee Dee Ramone.<\/p>\n

She reveals, \u2018We did some [shots] in Arturo Vega\u2019s loft on East 2nd Street, which was a block from CBGBs [club], and I just thought, \u201cLet\u2019s go outside\u201d. It was an overcast day and we were doing it during the day, probably midday or early afternoon. We walked a few doors down from the loft and there was a kind of a beat-up old playground with the wire fence and a basketball court.<\/p>\n

We went in and it had two brick walls \u2013 one brick wall is behind them on the album cover and, at the other end of the playground, there was another kind of more naturalistic wall and we did some pictures there. Really that was it.\u2019<\/p>\n\t\t

Casual and relaxed shoot<\/strong>
\nBayley had known the Ramones since she moved to New York City in 1974 and she says, \u2018It wasn\u2019t like they were stars or anything. I always thought that because it was a casual situation among friends that it probably made them more relaxed and more natural.<\/p>\n

There was no lighting, no stylist, no make-up, hair or fashion (laughs), that sort of thing. They wore what they wore and that was their image.\u2019<\/p>\n

Sire Records chose two of Bayley\u2019s images from the shoot \u2013 one for the album cover and one for publicity purposes. The second was quickly vetoed by the band as they didn\u2019t like the fact they were smiling in it. Bayley reveals, \u2018I got paid $125 for both pictures. They said to me, \u201cTake it or leave it\u201d.<\/p>\n

There wasn\u2019t any negotiation. The only demand that was made was that they put on the record \u2018courtesy of Punk magazine\u2019 as John Holmstrom wanted that, just to give a shout-out to the magazine, and nobody had a problem with that. I said, \u201cyes\u201d and it was never a regret that I did.\u2019<\/p>\n

Bayley shot the black & white pictures with a second-hand Pentax Spotmatic camera that she had bought at the Camera Barn in New York.<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019d been taking pictures since the \u201960s but this was the first time I was doing anything commercial or professional. I had read that if you\u2019re shooting in daytime you should use Kodak Plus-X, so it was shot on Plus-X. I always used Tri-X \u2013 the only time I ever used Plus-X film was for that cover session.\u00a0 There was no lighting \u2013 it was all natural lighting and nothing else.\u2019<\/p>\n\t\t

Symmetry<\/strong>
\nHaving processed the images and created contact sheets Bayley handed the images over to Sire Records for art direction. She admits, \u2018If they\u2019d said, \u201cYou\u2019re going to do the Ramones\u2019 album cover\u201d, I would probably have had a meltdown or something. But, because it was just for Punk magazine and it was such a casual, friendly situation, I felt perfectly comfortable with the whole thing and I think they did too.\u2019<\/p>\n

Bayley adds, \u2018I just saw it when it came out. Obviously it\u2019s a horizontal picture, so they cropped off the edges to make it a 12in square, but they didn\u2019t lose any of the essence of it. One of the things that made the album cover kind of perfect is that Joey, who\u2019s at least a foot taller than Tommy, is scrunched down.<\/p>\n

Then Tommy, which I never noticed when I was shooting, is standing on the brick and is kind of stretching himself up. That made them all kind of the same height, which I think makes the album cover have more symmetry\u2026 it looks good. Had I not taken that photograph hardly anybody would want to talk to me, but I\u2019ve done about 10,000 interviews about it. I\u2019m happy that I did it.\u2019<\/p>\n

\nJanette Beckman<\/strong>
\nThis photo captures everything I loved about New York City at that time. Shot for Punk on East 2nd St, where graffiti, homeless shelters and SROs abound. Roberta was friends with the band, part of the scene, and on the door at CBGBs; they trusted her. The shot is a stripped-down, raw, punk, real moment in time.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nAndy Cowles<\/strong><\/p>\n

One, two, three, FOUR! This is the stripped-down genius of photo, band and sonic corridor meeting perfectly inside the confines of a 12-inch square. Four corners, four sides, four bars, four bruddas and four leather jackets.
\nThere is nothing added, nothing taken away.<\/p>\n\"\"\n

Rachael Wright<\/strong>
\nAn image so iconic that I\u2019m not sure I believe the Ramones ever existed in colour! It\u2019s simple, authentic and graphically striking. Roberta Bayley truly captured a moment in time with this photograph\u2026 it\u2019s so 1970s New York City that you can almost smell the CBGBs toilets when you look at it.<\/p>\n

Some of the finest names in music and photography chose the covers for this series, including Janette Beckman, Jason Bell, Ed Caraeff, Andy Cowles, Kevin Cummins, Andy Earl, Jill Furmanovsky, Christie Goodwin, Peter Hook, Simon Larbalestier, Gered Mankowitz, Dennis Morris, Peter Neill, Aubrey \u2018Po\u2019 Powell, Rankin, Jamel Shabazz, Mat Snow, Howard Wakefield, Kirk Weddle and Rachael Wright<\/em><\/p>\n
