Jones is the most intelligent of that generation, he's one of those rare types who can carry an ego without a trace of narcissism, he always seems to have been that way. He's lived the rock n roll lifestyle, mixed with all that LA/New York crowd, probably been around numerous assholes yet the sleaze somehow never rubbed off on him or any of that British wannabe yank wild man crap like with Billy idol or that Depeche Mode singer. While Lydon gradually morphed into the Cliff Richard of punk for the British establishment, Jones seems immune to any kind of internally corrupting influence.
I was seeing pics of Linda in the late 70s and 80s and woahbaby, she was a looker, still incredibly beautiful. I can see what Joey and Johnny saw in her. Great interview love these two and so grateful Linda is keeping up her side of the Ramones legacy and estate. Long live the Ramones (and Pistols too ofc)!
Love Jones's humbleness on this interview...a great down to earth bloke who just wants to get on with life ...but still a massive influence on mine.Love Linda Ramone too.Two brilliant characters.Now where's my free Jonesys Jukebox t shirt !!
Wow, what a sweetheart of a girl Linda is. I had never really saw her much but I'm glad this was on TH-cam. She's so cute with her NYC accent and she's very pretty. I thought it was funny when he played The KKK Took My Baby Away.....I can now really understand why Joey got so pissed off when Johnny stole her from him. I'm completely smitten with her now. She's doing us all a great service by keeping the legend of the Ramones alive. Keep up the good work Linda Ramone!!!!!
Great interview! Linda nailed it for me about the influence that Johnny Ramone and the Ramones put out: if it wasn't for the Ramones and Johnny's playing, personally I would have given up guitar from just about where I started playing it. All the stuff I listened to at the time and wanted to play seemed so far out of my league. Then just when I was about to say: "to hell with this!", came the Ramones...
LInda at 16:04: "But he was Johnny Ramone....one of the most influential guitar players of all time." Steve: "So what you're saying he was one of the most influential guitar players of all time, is that what you're saying?" Me: LMAO!
Nothing against Linda, but she ends up taking Seteve's thought and selling it as hers. She goes, "Joey was the most infuential guitarist." Steve, "Why?" Linda, "Because he said pcik up a guitar and play, be you." Steve, "I think its when you have your own sound." Linda, "I think ti is when you have your own sound." Ugh. "be yourself" is only half way there honey. Oh, by the by, you look super for 58, MILF MILF MILF
That was a cracking bit of radio mate , quite “naive” question and answers but in a good way , huge Ramones fan with everything they ever did on vinyl as and when it came out including lots of bootlegs , if your willing to send to the U.K. I’d happy stump up for one of those Jonsey’s Jukebox t-shirts ....crack on Sunny Jim
Always loved him .Am 58 and in 1976 in the english papers slated the sex pistols..very much advanced for the time and are fantastic, intelligent human beings.
Tip of the hat for the Mick Ronson plug. He was a phenomenon, I was listening to Starman last night which is probably the first Bowie single I heard and realising it was Mick's little melodies that were the hook for the song. Such a beautiful guitar sound.
Happy Birthday Linda!!!! Your still sooo beautiful...I feel weird about what happend to w/ you, Johnny, and Joey! See you at the Hollywood Forever this August....Miss you soo much - and thanks Steve :]
She seems like a really fun person and is very knowledgeable about music back in the day .......... I am impressed with her .............. Im too young for the Ramon-es but I see the deal with them ....
This lady was married to the coolest dude to ever walk the planet. Regardless if you agreed with some of Johnnie's opinions or not, you have to admire and respect to the fact that he was sincere and stuck to his guns. In my opinion, he was THE man. His approach to the guitar was just like his opinions on the world and politics,...he knew what he liked and kept doing it.
This woman has made a pile of cash from being the widow of Johnny Ramone. It's ironic then that she misses the point, especially her comment about punk not having any award shows. Punk doesn't have awards because the punk idea is anti-award. Punk is about DIY, not getting the approval of others.
Yeah! she's at it with her museums and shit, The Ramones were a phenomenon for sure but she's just sponging off their history and you're right about the DIY aspect and some of the ideals that Ramones never had, and those terrible haircuts they had, too much junkie business as well. As for the music it's the type that you can play with your eyeballs shut.
You're right but "punk" already had too many awards and stuff....... all they're doing nowdays is keeping talking about "punk, punk, punk" to the point you cant stand to hear the word any longer........ an ...... y'know I was a punk back in the day....
But when you become a widow or widower, you inherit the wealth of your deceased loved one. You should know this. So there’s nothing wrong with Linda having Johnny’s wealth and royalties. I’m sure J bequeathed it to her, quit criticizing her. If you were in her place you would take the money also. Yes you would!
It's really nice that Jonesy's friends with Linda, good respect to Johnny. Great talk, this is the most I've heard them talk about the old days, brilliant! Looks like the annual Johnny tribute is petering out a bit, they used to have some great lineups. I thought Linda was joining forces with the NYC people (Joey's brother Mickey Leigh, etc) and just making it a Ramones night? I heard that a few years ago. I'm sure it's still a great time! (can't make it, I'm in NYC)
I love the version of Silver Machine by The Sex Pistols. I was at The Crystal Palace in the UK when they first performed it. I flew out of New York on a Friday night to go to that show, and was back in New York on Sunday night. It was totally worth making the trip.
Jonesey's thinkin' about Hollister! Grew up there and most of the family is still there. Righetti liquors was owned by my aunt and uncle. Johnny's bar and grill used to have the best burgers around. Ha!
I always suspected Johnny must've been a Grand Funk Railroad fan back in the day. They were an incredibly exciting live act when they were just a 3-piece. One listen to "Live Album" from 1970 will confirm that.
Steve Jones almost killed me once, I was cycling back from a record shop in Notting hill gate with my copy of P.I.Ls Death Disco single that had just been released and was excitedly hurrying home to put it on the turntable and wasn't paying full attention and didn't stop quickly enough at a junction and I just managed to avoid a speeding pink Cadillac, as I looked at the car while thinking how lucky I was that I stopped in time I realised that the bloke sitting in the front seat was Steve Jones. I thought it was quite funny that iit was him that almost knocked me over while I had a single by P.I.L on me while Jones was still in The Professionals at that time.
best!Do you have a wife?No just a hookah.Bless you Linda,you wear that tiara,crown lovely!Loved when the Ramones played Rhode Island,Boston,nantaskett beach,and the cape cod channel club back in the day.Fun night out is all one can ask for.Much Love
Steve,as older gents hiking and walking thank Christ gets our water baggage out Best part of vinyl is have to get up and flip it over.lol,oi,kinda like 12 ounce cans makes one run to the fridge,A 16 oz pint keeps ya on the couch! Cheeeers.
shes a metal head in a punk rock relation.. " Whos your fav guitar?" "Whos Punk Rock King ! " etc. Thats a mentality more for metal heads than punkers.
So Sad she calls herself & Ramone & living off the name as Ramone was Only the name of the Band not any of the members etc & way she goes on about him most influential guitarist its like shes trying to convince herself & she sees more into things than there was.
I’ve always thought Punk or High Energy Raunchy Rock n Roll was Great Music , Great Songs & Great Playing-Punk was Not crappy average players 70’s Alice Cooper Alex Harvey Hawkwind Pink Fairies New York Dolls Roxy Music Led Zeppelin Peter Hammill etc they all had that Punk Attitude in many of their songs ... Punk was never crappy players ... when it became that in the 80’s I was done with it , horrible
It seems like she would have annoyed Johnny. Maybe it just seems like everyone and everything did though. . .🤔 hey...what do I know? Guess it worked. Lol
Jonesy just totally uninterested in self aggrandizement, hero worship, or hollyweird awards. Love that guy.
He's a yawn. Why have the show with her on it.
@@rhodayackez9570ur mom.
Only a legend gets John Frusciante to come over to the house to teach you how to play your old songs! \m/
Yeah, that story put a huge smile on my face too, dude!

Ha, well said, Mate!
I agree
So happy Linda is keeping the legacy alive. She seems ageless and it’s a pure joy to hear Jonsey talk about Johnny...two genuine legends
Gotta keep the money coming in...
@@youjoker9647 I believe that also. But who doesn't need money? I think her heart is in there also and she enjoys it.

Great interview, it's cool that the Damned's first lp is Jones' favourite punk record.
Stiff Little Fingers ,best punk band of all time .Love this show.Linda is beautiful.Steve great as ever.
Good fun chat. Nice bit of chemistry between them both
She looks freakin awesome.
She's so much like my Aunt! Make's me miss NY a little just hearing her
She makes me miss N.Y. too, and I've never been out of A.Z.
Hey Linda ur looking for another person for Johnny ramone birthday CALL Walter lure that would be the best ever him and jonesy please
"Vinyl? What a waste of time!" -- Steve Jones. I agree!!
I agree ,but there was something about it .You really had to work to get the records you wanted.
Obviously you didn't grow up when vinyl was all you could get?
The combined IQ's of these two doesn't reach triple digits. Love them both.
Condescending ass. Jonesy is very intelligent. He plays it down though and his subtlety clearly goes over the heads of people like you.
You know Steve has a PhD right ?
He's just working class.
@@boretyy lol. In being blue collar!?
Jones has a PhD in bollockology so watch what you say about his IQ.
She seems like a really fun person and is very knowledgeable about music back in the day .......... I am impressed with her .............. Im too young for the Ramon-es but I see the deal with them ....

Johnny smacks around his bitches
Totally agree mate and well put 👍💙🎸
His politics were awesome
Jonesy, a most genial host and a lover of great music too.......
Took a while to get started but the second half of this is great. She's lovely and whip smart!
The Damned are above The Clash for me
The Damned have more of a charm.
What did Johnny see in her?

She just thinks punk should be appreciated at this point considering Rock is dead.
You're right but "punk" already had too many awards and stuff....... all they're doing nowdays is keeping talking about "punk, punk, punk" to the point you cant stand to hear the word any longer........ an ...... y'know I was a punk back in the day....
@vual grimoire My thoughts exactly, to all that you said
But when you become a widow or widower, you inherit the wealth of your deceased loved one. You should know this. So there’s nothing wrong with Linda having Johnny’s wealth and royalties. I’m sure J bequeathed it to her, quit criticizing her. If you were in her place you would take the money also. Yes you would!

That New Yawk axcent
Axcent? The word is spelled accent.
@@kingloser4198 She's not from Brooklyn. None of the *Ramones* were from Brooklyn. They're from Forest Hills, Queens. Upper, middle class.
Most bands come from middle class and above
I love the version of Silver Machine by The Sex Pistols. I was at The Crystal Palace in the UK when they first performed it. I flew out of New York on a Friday night to go to that show, and was back in New York on Sunday night. It was totally worth making the trip.
Mick Ronson! Yes!
Linda looks very pretty, i love her style
Acid Eaters came out on the day I was born.
Barbarella is one of my favorite movies and Linda is one of the coolest females on Earth- I love her flirting with Steve!
She loves herself a bit too much. Sharon Osbourne eat your heart out.
I missed the flirting totally. She wants to challenge him and he appears to consider her a tad silly.
Flirting with Steve? Missed that.
Linda is always beautiful
The Ramones are on top of my list because i was raised with Ramones but Sex Pistols are also on the top because they are legends as well
Where do I obtain a Jonesy's Jukebox tee?
Google is your friend.

She is definitely attractive I love the accent aswell.

No.

KKK Baby Took My Baby Away by the Ramones is a good song.
It's a GREAT song.

Hey Linda...... viva Ramones baby
I admire her determination to take on a look she considers her own, but I cannot help but notice the greenish-brown teeth.
That’s an easy fix
shes a metal head in a punk rock relation.. " Whos your fav guitar?" "Whos Punk Rock King ! " etc. Thats a mentality more for metal heads than punkers.
They both predate punk so for them it's just part of their past, not this vaunted lifestyle. They were talking like the 70's glitter kids they are.
Linda is so sweet and very pretty. Steve as ever so relaxed. x
Cool she knows old punk but lets talk about bands like nofx,greenday,rancid etc. Ya know
Let's not. They are fourth-division shite.
They all suck ass.
So Sad she calls herself & Ramone & living off the name as Ramone was Only the name of the Band not any of the members etc & way she goes on about him most influential guitarist its like shes trying to convince herself & she sees more into things than there was.
YOKO ONO LEE
"Widepekia". Lol.
cool interview. she's lovely.
Mick and Keef looked old when they were young so it doesn't matter.
Yea steve , the three micks , ( ha) Ronson, Ralphs and Jones ( would’ve made a HELL of an album eh ? Featuring Ronnie Lane on bass
Another Paesana 😁✌And definitely has the NY accent from the BRONX

Why do so many Ramones fans hate her as if she's the Yoko Ono of the Ramones?
I was wondering that.
It seems you either have to be in the Johnny or Joey camp, but can’t be in both.
It seems like she would have annoyed Johnny. Maybe it just seems like everyone and everything did though. . .🤔 hey...what do I know? Guess it worked. Lol
Johnny & Linda fought all the time. It's how they expressed their love for each other. They were natural born antagonists.
Agreed. She seems pretty dumb actually. I seriously don't get what either Joey or Johnny saw in her.
MX MX
How can one feel their age if they've never experienced it before?
Women experience age discrimination.
Who is this Fred they’re talking about?
Doctor Skull I think they talk about Fred Sonic Smith from the mc5
Fred Armisen I think
Linda is right. X ray spex were great. Sorry steve but they were miles better than the brian james era damned.
Hollister.
They should make a sequel to Barfly and have Jonesy play the older Charles Bukowski, he fookin' looks a lot like him.
Don't think SJ could pull off CB's accent..
Who?
The wife of Johnny Ramone?? LEAD singer for The RAMONES??? Ring a bell?
She's nice but she was kind of 'passive' in her directness.
Dave Lee Travis
The Testors, Sonny Vincent top not punk song writer, only them and the Ramones. Yeah and Mark Farner!!
Why are you wearing a tiara?
Because she fn wants too you turd
jonsey legend..he gets it..hall of fame👎
She is so annoying to listen to & she thinks she was in the Ramones way she acts & goes on.
