When things were released mattered little to me alone in smalltown NewHampshuh... & the piSToLs album was like *nothing* so much as the Dolls. I concede most of that ...yet they were good @ it. Hard to remember what their impact was like in 1977ish. As for TheRamones - the resistance to them was a bit of a shock to even them themselves I reckon.
