I can't believe nobody said the coolest name: Elvis Ramone (Blondie's Clem Burke, who drummed for the Ramones for just two shows when Marky left to get sober)
"On the Road with the Ramones" has been released in spanish by Muster books, a division of Munster Records, and titled "De Gira con los Ramones". It has been updated after Johnny's death and comes in hardcover. All the info here:

I love them all. I hope I can have a listen soon to the rest, but I don't have a lot of time these days.
I'd just love it if this kind of stuff was available easily to everybody, not just to the ones into "underground-whatever-you-call-it-type-of-music".
