THE RAMRODS were Detroit's preeminent Punk band in the late 70's. While all the other groups played to a bunch of spitting, pogo-ing disenfranchised boys, the first few rows of a Ramrods show were always filled with undulating girls. Like The Stooges before them, this was due to their ability to blend high-energy rock n roll with a sexy groove. Although their live appearances over the last 27 years can be counted on one hand, this version of their classic, "Here It Comes", clearly demonstrates that The Ramrods remain poised to go another 15 rounds.

  • This is fucking awesome !

  • Crap, if youa re talking about the 70's then I was looking for another band with a similar name.

  • I will admit that Raw Power was the obvious mold, but damn, what a choice. At the time, with the exception of Detroit, The Stooges couldn't get anywhere, so those of us that loved them were quick to jump on this band.Still think the Ramrods shows I saw (Red Carpet, Velvet Hammer) were as exciting as anything I saw then or since. These guys owe you money or something?

  • Ah yes, the Ramrods songbook of thinly plagarized tunes slightly lifted from "Raw Power." Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery when you don't have any original musical ideas.

  • Peter wrote a bunch of good songs, and quite frankly I'd rather see him here and Dave back on bass, but if you know Peter (and it sounds like you do) you know it won't happen, so those of us that saw and loved this band are more than happy with the current lineup. Life's short, maybe Peter needs to extend a hand to the boys, and they back to him.

  • EVERYONE stole from Iggy, esp in Detroit. In what way does that make you a bad person?
