On this date in 1976, The Ramones released their self-titled debut album. 14 songs in less than 28 minutes. It contained the singles, "Blitzkrieg Bop" and "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend". The singles didn't chart and the best the album could muster was a peak at the #111 spot on the U.S. albums chart. Nonetheless, legend was born. The legendary punk band from Queens, NY turned in their leather jackets for good in 1996.

About: The original Post Punk Progressive Pop Party (The P5) aired every Saturday night on 88.7FM WVHC (now WRHU) Radio Hofstra University in Hempstead, New York. Back in 1978, WVHC was among the first outlets (public or commercial) in the United States to promote what became the New Wave movement. This blog is a tribute to that show and all of the great music it exposed us to.
