DEE DEE RAMONE

 

 

From Queens, New York.  As Dee Dee King, this Ramones guitarist actually left one of the greatest punk bands of all time to...RAP!  The results were laughable and after coming back to his senses he released some very Ramones-like albums in 1994 and 1997.  Dee Dee joined together with former bandmate Marky Ramone and formed The Ramainz in 1996 and released a live album in 1999.  As a survivor of an era that claimed many of his contemporaries to drug addiction or other accidental deaths, it is ironic then that Dee Dee himself died unexpectedly on June 5th, 2002, just a few short weeks after being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame with his former Ramones bandmates.  In the style of his punk brothers, his death came by an overdose, another needless waste of a rock legend.  1987-2000.
