Joey Ramone In The Parking Lot 1978:

This photo was taken after a Ramones recording session produced by the Kessel brothers, Dan and Dave, in Hollywood's Gold Star Studios, with Rodney Bingenheimer in attendance. The Ramones cut "Slug" (on "Rocket to Russia") and the Beach Boys' "Surfin' Safari." I hung out with the Ramones on several occasions, with a memorable lunch at world-famous Duke's Coffee House on Santa Monica Blvd, next to the infamous Tropicana Motor Hotel, favored by punks and other musicians. I find this photo very touching. I am honored to have been a friend of Joey's.
