Volume 1 of this impressive collection chronicling the lesser known recording side of the Kings of New York. The two volumes of Rare Ramones present a selection of B sides, demos and odd recording from the band, and Volume 1 covers the beginnings of the band, starting with the mythical Slug demo recorded in 1977 and finishing in 1984 with the band working on Too tough to die. An absolute treat for any Pinhead with their name!
