CD Reviews1234 Cretins don't wanna rock no more. andy blackhurst | 02/26/2003 (1 out of 5 stars) "C'mon this is awful. How many times can Dee Dee cover the old Ramones catalogue? Any creativity had left him by this point. Barbara cant sing either. Utterly pointless just like the Ramainz live thing.Sad epitaph for one of the greats." Hey Dee Dee Klaudio | 02/26/2004 (3 out of 5 stars) "the cd is a lot of ramones covers, I'm some diappointed with Dee Dee because he showed little creativity. I think maybe he wanted to show he could sung some more tracks on the Ramones era...and that's right, not bad vocals...but the girl (on "sheena is a punk rocker") sings awful. doesn't matter, anyway I enjoy to hear "blitzkrieg bop" and all others, even "sheena....". there are a couple of Dee Dee's own songs and rockin' too. for ramones fans as document." 1,2,3,4 Johnny Heering | Bethel, CT United States | 11/21/2004 (4 out of 5 stars) "This album was basically recorded as a lark, when Dee Dee Ramone decided to record some old Ramones songs with himself on lead vocals. It actually turned out pretty good. The band plays the songs well, and Dee Dee sounds good on vocals, if not as good as Joey Ramone. On a few of the songs, Dee Dee lets his wife Barbara sing lead, and she sounds pretty good, too. She has a cute accent! Although most of the songs are old Ramones songs, there are a few songs that are not. "Shakin' All Over" is a Guess Who song, "Motorbikin'" is an original, "Cathy's Clown" is an Everly Brothers song, "Fix Yourself Up" is an original and "Sidewalk Surfin'" is an original (it's not the Jan and Dean song). This is a fun album that most of Dee Dee's fans should enjoy."
