Ramones by Ramones

This is the quintessential punk album - 14 songs in under half an hour, every one starts with a count of “One, two, three, four!” before crashing in. The whole thing was recorded in a week for about $6000, and still sounds authentically raw and exciting. The only thing that still makes me wince is all the references to Nazis at the end - it might have seemed edgy and amusing in 1976, but today - ouch!
