    Amazon (or Amazon UK at least) are selling copies of Halfway to Sanity that are actually CDR not CD. They are apparently "authorised" but are printed on demand. As soon as I realised mine was a CDR, it went straight back. CDR is substandard rubbish so if you are buying in future beware. Some sellers may be completely unaware that it is a CDR that they have.

      Even the "bad" Ramones albums are still better than most of the other crap.

        Still waiting for this and all of the 80s/90s Ramones albums to get a repressing on vinyl. Hopefully someday that will happen.

        Also this is a great album and a very overlooked one from their catalogue, I Wanna Live, Bop 'Til You Drop, Garden of Serenity, I Know Better Now, A Real Cool Time are all awesome tracks, but I do enjoy all of them.

          Johnny moved beyond barchords (somewhat), with even a pick -slide down the low e string, here and there...or how much did he actually play on this?

            Daniel Rey, the Judas Iscariot of the Ramones. Terrible production terrible! What a pal!

              This is a very underrated Ramones album and my favorite studio album of theirs. (all-time fave is "Loco Live") Rare pick slide on "Garden of Serenity" and lots of groovy backing vocals. Check out "Go Little Camaro Go" with Debbie Harry! The Peds did a fantastic "Death of Me" cover which was faster and more aggressive.
