where did they get the album from the Ramones as a top 40
http://rocknrollroutemaster.com/2014/09/11/hey-ho-lets-go-the-ramones-in-london/They were some of the most pivotal gigs in music history. It’s that only-200-people-bought-the-first-Velvet -Underground-album-but-they-all-formed-a-band thing. Anyone who was to become anyone in Punk was there: the Clash, the Sex Pistols, Billy Idol, Siouxsie Sioux, the Stranglers, the Damned, Chrissie Hynde, Adam & the Ants’ and Sid Vicious, who if you think about it was basically a mini Dee Dee Ramone. They’d all bought the debut album, most were learning the guitar or the bass by listening to it and pretty much everyone there formed a band or started a fanzine.
London raved about the Ramones, but after three days they were gone. Their success here did nothing for the band’s reputation back home however. When they returned to the USA, they went straight back to playing to 50 people at CBGBs. In fact, as the Pistols gained in notoriety over the next few months, being associated with English punk acts meant commercial death for the Ramones. No radio station would touch them and no one bought their albums. Their debut album finally went gold for 500,000 sold – in April 2014.
Actually the Ramone's album is one of the few that actually belong on the list. Their influence far outweighs their limited popularity.

the Ramones saved everybody from progressive rock, so groundbreaking indeed I think In Rainbows is a cop out.
biggest miss is Buddy Holly- is there anyone more groundbreaking or influential in the history of rock n roll?
What wrong with Progressive rock?
i was joking, hence the emoticon.
I refuse, on musical grounds, to applaud or honor rap.
