      Although
      the
      Ramones
      called
      it
      quits
      in
      1996,
      drummer
     
     
      Marky
      wasn’t
      about
      to
      call
      it
      a
      career.
      This,
      his
      second
      cd
      as
     
     
      bandleader,
      sees
      a
      fusion
      of
      south
      Californian
      punk
      with
      that
      of
     
     
      the
      Ramones
      style,
      resulting
      in
      a
      decent
      cd.(C)
     
    

    
     
      A
      great
      track
      is
      “Don’t
      Blame
      Me,”a
      tribute
      to
      Phil
      Spector’s
     
     
      legendary
      “Wall
      of
      Sound”
      approach
      to
      music
      —
      the
      song
      is
      a
     
     
      duet
      featuring
      Joan
      Jett
      and
      Marky
      —
      who
      makes
      his
      debut
      on
     
     
      vocals
      with
      this
      track.
      The
      other
      13
      tracks,
      which
      feature
      Ben
     
     
      Trokan
      on
      vocals,
      are
      more
      punkish
      and
      have
      a
      definite
      SoCal
     
     
      punk
      feel
      to
      them.
      Notable
      tunes
      are
      “One
      Way
      Ride”
      and
     
     
      their
      cover
      of
      the
      Beatles’
      “Nowhere
      Man,”
