Jeffrey Ross Hyman (May 19, 1951– April 15, 2001), known by his stage name Joey Ramone, was an American musician and singer-songwriter, lead vocalist of the punk rock band the Ramones. Joey Ramone's image, voice, and tenure as frontman of the Ramones made him a countercultural icon.
Early life
Joey Ramone was born Jeffrey Ross Hyman to Noel Hyman and his wife Charlotte (née Mandell),. The family lived in Forest Hills, QueensNew York
where Hyman and his future Ramones bandmates attended Forest Hills High School. Though happy, Hyman was something of an outcast, diagnosed at 18 with obsessive–compulsive disorder. He grew up with his brother Mickey Leigh. His mother, Charlotte Lesher, divorced her first husband, Noel Hyman. She married a second time but was widowed by a car accident while she was on vacation.
Hyman was a fan of the Beatles,the Who, David Bowie, and the Stooges among other bands, particularly oldies and the Phil Spector-produced "girl groups". His idol was Pete Townshend of the Who, with whom he shared a birthday. Hyman took up the drums at 13, and played them throughout his teen years. Before he joined the Ramones, he was the singer in a band known as Sniper (see below).
"Hang in there. If you believe what you're doing is unique. Otherwise give up or sound like Nirvana or Pearl Jam."
"I enjoyed my life when I had nothing... and kinda like the idea of just being happy with me."
"We're the only band that kept the guts, and kept the excitement, and kept the belief, you know. We never sidetracked. We never went the way of the Clash, and never wanted to get into the discotheques that bad."
"I like you. You're all right. Actually, I like you better meeting you than if somebody had just given me your record."
"We decided to start our own group because we were bored with everything we heard, ... Everything was 10th-generation Led Zeppelin ... overproduced, or just junk. We missed music like it used to be."
"In our position, we've always done well, but we just haven't had that hit yet that put us over the top. We always break even."
"I once told this writer a story about how I met the guys in an elevator and found out we all had the same last name, so we decided to form a band."
"Well, I think we're the greatest rock 'n' roll band in the world."
"To me, John Lennon and Elvis Presley were punks, because they made music that evoked those emotions in people."
"To me, punk is about being an individual and going against the grain and standing up and saying 'This is who I am'."
"For better or worse, MTV sort of bridges the whole country together almost like the BBC does in England. It's opened up everything so wide that it's possible for everyone to have different ideas."
"We always stayed true to what the Ramones are."
"The Ramones own the fountain of youth. Experiencing us is like having the fountain of youth."
"The Eagles and the Captain and Tennille ruled the airwaves, and we were the answer to it."
