Ramones Mania
is a relentless collection of 30 tracks from
the Ramones
' first ten albums, ranging from the classic
Ramones
to the less-than-classic
Halfway to Sanity
. Although not all of their great '70s songs are included, it boils down the highlights from the inconsistent '80s albums quite effectively, making it a useful summation of their peak period, even if the sequencing is not chronological. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
