The Ramones’ Previously Unseen Video for 1978’s “She’s the One”

Rock n roll Punk pioneers The Ramones via their estate recently unleashed a deluxe reissue of their iconic 1978 fourth record "Road to Ruin". Zephrying for 40 years now, to promote the anniversary, they searched high and low for a previously unreleased musique video of their album cut tune “She’s the One.”

Showcasing in this vid is the clearly authentic badass quality the foursome naturally had. The stripped-down video features the four of them jamming out in grungy tight fitting jeans and leather with an impeccable desolate garage backdrop. Another better-known track that seems to have been filmed during the same shoot is the tune “Don’t Come Close.”

The Road to Ruin reissue also features unreleased studio and live recordings, a hardcover book, unseen-photos, and the unused original album art. The record found the band slightly opening up their sound, more open-mindedly incorporating elements of the Phil Spector-era pop sonics intertwined with their early rock that had always been a signature for the band.

Watching this video resurrects for at least 2 minutes and 13 seconds the rawness and rebellion that is Punk and rock n roll yet always with an honest cool and vital message. This is Ramones in their 1970s best of. You can feel the electricity through the speakers. You can see why rock heads can’t help but be struck by the way they were.

With fashion designers like Vivienne Westwood and the House of  Dior, so many other fields of the arts, thanks to the boys,  have created an archetype of thee smooth-cool rock’n’roll guy, that is still being imitated today.

Speaking of, groups of today, they would kill to look as tough yet casual, in an enigmatic venturesome manner as they do in this video.

Now let's get to it honey rockers! This is 40 years worth of inspiration and nostalgia. Filling our rebel heart tanks with the fuel needed, without hesitation, hit play on thee previously unseen video
