I have a first press. The inner label has the song misspelled as "Beat is on the Brat". However, Blitzkrieg Bop is spelled correctly. Hmmmmm.
apecantrustme Jan 24, 2023
why doesn't this album have a pop tag? because the guitars are distorted?
minman Jan 10, 2023
I have the first press with the incorrect title “Beat Is On The Brat” and misspelling of “Blitkrieg Bop” on the inner labels. Something not mentioned on this listing is that the record cover is oversized by a half inch. A standard cover size is 12.2/8”. A first press Ramones will not be flush in height with a standard cover. if you have a first press, compare for yourself. It will be slightly oversized when filed in with your other records.

The better songs on this lp had music/riffs by DeeDee, and lyrics by Ann Phelan and Robert Cuballo (sp)? In case you wondered why they're so classic, and the albums that follow not nearly as much... lots of stories like that in the music business of course of course nonetheless where is Ann now... the Bronx?

Finally scored a 1976 original in great shape! Pre-WEA labels and all of the misspellings present, what a gem!

Hmm, I picked this up (LP) at a vintage record store recently and according to the label the Cat is SR 6020 but the date says 1976 which doesn't seem to be a version listed here.

Label on side A has Beat on the Brat listed as “Beat is on the Brat” on a true first press.

My copy has
SASD 7520 A RE-1 STERLING (no T1 or anything after STERLING)
SASD 7520 B RE-1 X STERLING (no T1 or anything after STERLING)
All of the same First Pressing identifiers mentioned

If you would listen to one punk album, make this it! A lot of energy, anger and attitude from this first release. Still a really tight production. Sex Pistols is much more unpolished, these guys are really great players. Although the music is probably easy to play, it takes something to keep it great together. Starting off, “Blitzkrieg Bop” is probably their most famous song. For me, this is a special record. I was running a local “alternative cafe”, and we mostly listened to punk records there. So naturally, this was one of them, and I have fond memories of old friends and myself listening to punk until the early hours.
