Ramones's Rocket to Russia

Description: Leather jackets zipped against the chill, the Ramones lean into the grit of Extra Place off East 1st Street, turning an unremarkable alley into a launchpad for Rocket to Russia’s buzzsaw pop-punk. The weathered brick and battered doorway echo the band’s stripped-down songs—no gloss, just downtown attitude captured at the height of New York’s late-’70s underground. Standing here, you can almost hear the album spilling out of a nearby CBGB matinee, all speed, hooks, and sneer. Find this alleyway moment at Map-2B/Grid-3C as one stop in the MusicRoadTrip.com App.
