The third of the Ramones' original quartet of albums, 1977's ROCKET TO RUSSIA is actually a big improvement over the slightly disappointing LEAVE HOME, released earlier in 1977. While not as solidly perfect as RAMONES, ROCKET TO RUSSIA contains very little fat and boasts possibly the finest songs in the band's entire repertoire, "Rockaway Beach" and the immortal "Sheena Is a Punk Rocker". "We're a Happy Family" and "Teenage Lobotomy" are only slightly lesser tracks, and the covers of the Trashmen's gloriously silly "Surfin' Bird" and Bobby Freeman's "Do You Wanna Dance" are conceptually perfect, linking the Ramones neatly with their garage rock and bubblegum roots. more...

Mojo (3/03, p.76)
- Ranked #35 in Mojo's "Top 50 Punk Albums" - "...[With] superior songwriting and production..."
Q (8/01, pp.156-7)
- 3 stars out of 5 - "...Amongst their best work....an effort to appear more accessible....a bit of surfing, a handful of girls and some songs about not being very intelligent..."
NME (6/23/01, p.41)
- 10 out of 10 - "...The most toweringly aggressive, misleadingly primitive, perfectly phrased musical statement ever made....The demos and alternate versions included demonstrate how finely honed every gangly gesture was from the very beginning..."
Uncut (8/01, p.94)
- 5 stars out of 5 - "...Sustaining the momentum, 1977's ROCKET TO RUSSIA offers a final lick of polish to the machinery..."
