Ramone, Dee Dee
The Deadline Demos
In 1989 Dee Dee Ramone fled both New York and The Ramones and headed to Europe. After a brief aborted link-up with Stiv
Bators and Johnny Thunders in Paris, he moved to London intending to seek out fellow punk rock contemporaries with a
plan for a fresh start and to form a new band. Dee Dee was introduced by mutual friend Brian James (ex-Damned/Lords Of
The New Church) to Alan Lee Shaw (ex-Rings/Maniacs) and George Butler (ex-Lighting Raiders) and a band formed with the
proposed name of Dee Dee Ramone's Deadline. With rehearsals underway, Alan on bass/backing vocals, George on drums and
Dee
Dee on guitar/lead vocals, the project was soon up and running and in the process of negotiating a recording deal with
Overground Records, the release would be promoted with a UK tour, when due to unforeseen circumstances (unfortunately
the state of Dee Dee's fragile mental/physical shape), the project was sadly and frustratingly brought to an abrupt end,
before any studio recordings or gigs could be completed. The demos from 1989 are the only recordings that occurred. They
are works in progress, forming an important historical record that show flashes of Dee Dee's genius as one of punk's
most important original songwriters. Limited to 250 copies!
