ENCARTE: OVERKILL [2]
Comentários de Bobby Blitz sobre os Ramones e sobre a versão pra “I’m Against It”, coverizada em “Coverkill” (1999):
“Being from N.Y. you have a special attachment to the Ramones. We think they’re ours, and they are. We didn’t own the original master of this recording, so we transfered it from a 10 years old, shitty console copy… makes no never mind. It was resolved in 88, with the ‘Under the Influence’ lineup. Remember getting ready to take the stage at the Ritz for the first time as a headliner, and we got a special introduction.
This guy walks on stage; ripped jeans, shadles, leather and say in a very low voice: ‘Uh, these guys are called Overkill‘. It was Joey Ramone. The most memorable intro off DD + my career… Hey-Ho, Let’s Go!!!”
