Joey Ramone Interview on Videowave -- April 1997




Jimmy Martino interviews Joey Ramone in the loft of Arturo Vega; just around the corner from CBGB's. Included is a taped tribute to Oedipus; for showing at a roast. Not here but in the same interview he expresses his heart-warmed thanks to the Matt Groening for the Ramones appearing on the Simpsons. I would've had more footage but the second interview tape was stolen along with the camera. Videography by Robert Barry Francos. Videowave is a TV and Internet program featuring music ignored by the mass media.
The Producer here is Alan Abramowitz. This is just an excerpt of a longer piece.
