Yet another one of the fabulous Ramones have gone to Rock and Roll Heaven...Johnny Ramone passed away after a five year battle with prostate cancer.

RIP Johnny, when it comes to imitators "They Don't Come Close"

His services to folk were limited but to tuneful thrash he was a giant.

Three down one to go, so who's left? Tommy? He's gotta be watching over his shoulder...

What a drag. He changed the way many of us guitarists approached the instrument and created some dignity in garage bands. Hope he's found peace.

Peace, Mooh.

Sad to see the first three go so early. 'Sheena is...' definitely helped soundtrack my youth and they paved the way for lots of UK punk. Good guys.
