I Slept With Joey Ramone: A Punk Rock Family Memoir

Great book. You know what you’re getting if you found this. Amazon delivered it in great condition.

Even if you're not a Ramones fan, this book is an amazing read. There were points in the book where my heart literally broke for him as a human being, the way he was treated by people. Such a tortured soul with so much talent. Read this book -- you won't regret it.

Wer weiß wohl mehr über Joey Ramone, den Vater des Punks, als sein Bruder mit dem er sich jahrelang ein Zimmer geteilt hat und der immer bei ihm war?Mickey Leigh bereitet großartige Einsicht in das Leben seines Bruders und den Rest der Ramones. Außerdem ist er sehr daran bemüht das Stigma an OCD etwas zu brechen, was ihm super gelingt. Als großer Ramones fan könnte ich gar nicht noch zufriedener sein als ich bin!

I've read about 6 Ramones related books and this was definitely the most enjoyable. There are a number of key issues which affected the band hugely that appear in print for the first time. Even the parts about points you already know about are an interesting read and that's down to the author being likeable, so his opinion is worth your time. Leigh also comes across as credible so you don't find yourself questioning the validity of what you are reading, unlike Dee Dee's 'Poison Heart - Surviving The Ramones'.There are quite a number of Ramones books available plus Marky's is released in a few months, but between this book and 'Please Kill Me' you get the full story.

Comment ne pas re-tomber amoureux(se) de ce groupe mythique ?Mickey Leigh nous fait revivre le parcours hors norme de son grand frère, avec humour et amour. "...sans les Ramones, Joey n'aurait pas survécu..." ; (et pourtant, est-ce qu'on ne ressent pas un peu d'amertume dans le discours de Mickey ?).How not to fall (again) in love with this mythic band?Mickey Leigh brings to life his big brother's so special journey, with humor and love. "...without the Ramones, Joey wouldn't have survived..."; (yet, doesn't one feel some bitterness in Mickey's speech?).Just great! Ramones for ever !!!
