Featuring three superb live FM radio broadcast recordings from across the Ramones' three decade career, the first disc in this triple CD set was recorded in New York on 4th November 1977, the very day the band's third album Rocket To Russia was released. Next up comes the group's 1982 show at the legendary My Father's Place venue, out on Long Island, where the bruvers played on 20th July that year. Concluding this box set is a recording from The River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires in 1996, shortly before the Ramones called it a day. With great sound throughout and an eclectic array of originals and covers performed across these cherished gigs, this set provides a great opportunity to re-live the Ramones in concert from all eras of their career.

Hit and Miss
This is a boxed set, repackaging 3 existing Ramones bootlegs. They are:Eaten Alive (Smokin', 2015)Sound quality: 8/10Utica, NY 11/14/77Oddly enough, the oldest show sounds the best. This is the briefest show of the set (18 songs), but also the most well-mixed. There are two 10-minute interviews tacked on the end, to extend the playing time.Rock & Roll Radio (Smokin', 2017)Sound quality: 6/10Roslyn, NY 7/20/82Too much of Dee Dee's bass on this one, bleeding into all the other instruments, but it does include lesser-heard songs from Pleasant Dreams and End of the Century. It's also "overburned", running at over 83 minutes!The Final Tour (Hobo, 2017)Sound quality: 0/10Buenos Aires 3/16/96 (plus a bonus track already on We're Outta Here)There is a 2-second gap between each track, effectively ruining the show. Often during C.J.'s 1-2-3-4, or the beginning of the song. There's also a cymbal-like noise that crops up a lot that's not the cymbals. It reminds me of when the reverse side of a cassette bleeds through onto the side being played, although I can't be certain what it is exactly. One thing's for sure, this disc is a mess.

Unlistenable
I understood in advance of purchase that they are radio broadcast recordings but the quality is the worst I've ever heard, and I own over 4000 cds. They were unlistenable.
