Title: DEE DEE RAMONE - BETTER THAN EVER!
Review: Although this album breaks no new ground, it does bring back some great memories. Memories of the early Ramones, when Dee Dee wrote his best songs. Hop Around is much better that his last album, with several excellent songs, many good ones, and only a couple of throw-aways. Dee Dee borrows many of his own riffs and song titles, but I guess it's OK to steal from yourself. "I Don't Wanna Die in The Basement," "Now I Wanna Be Sedated," and "38th & 8th" may not be the most original songs, but they are great nonetheless. Also, the production is very good. Any Ramones fan should definitely buy this album. Others are advised to buy it and see how the "old school" rocks.
