The Ramones’ Leave Home 40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition is now available from Rhino. It contains three discs of original, remastered, unreleased, and live CBGB recordings, as well as a hardcover book. This limited release of 15,000 will run you nearly $60 on Amazon, but you can stream this puppy today on Spotify.
Disc one contains a remastered original mix and a new 40th anniversary mix by Ed Stasium, the dude that engineered the album in 1977. Some of the new Stasium mix nuances can only be appreciated with a decent set of headphones, such as the panning of the Johnny Ramones’ guitar tracks. Disc two contains rough mixes from Sundragon Studios and other mixes like the doo wop version of “You’re Gonna Kill That Girl.” The highlight of the release is the energetic CBGB set from April 2, 1977 on disc three. See the complete track listing below.
