More on Tommy Ramone
Description from Wikipedia:
Tommy Ramone (born Erdélyi Tamás, January 29, 1952 in Budapest, Hungary) is a Hungarian record producer and drummer. He is the last surviving original member of the pioneering punk rock band The Ramones.
Erdélyi grew up in Queens, one of the boroughs of New York City. Tommy and guitarist Johnny Cummings (later to be dubbed "Johnny Ramone") performed together in a mid-60's four-piece garage band called the Tangerine Puppets while in high school. In 1970, the then 18-year-old Erdelyi was a studio intern for the production of the Jimi Hendrix album Band of Gypsys.
When the Ramones first came together, with Johnny Ramone on guitar, Dee Dee Ramone on bass and Joey Ramone on drums, Erdelyi was supposed to be the manager, but was drafted as the band's drummer when Joey became the lead singer and found that he couldn't keep up with the Ramones' increasingly fast tempos. "Tommy Ramone, who was managing us, finally had to sit down behind the drums, because nobody else wanted to," Dee Dee later recalled.
He remained as drummer, from 1974 to 1978, playing on and co-producing their first three albums: Ramones, Leave Home, and Rocket to Russia. He was replaced in 1978, but handled band management and co-production for their fourth album, Road to Ruin; and returned for the eighth album, 1984's Too Tough to Die. His drumming replacement was Marky Ramone.
Even though Tommy was an original member and co-producer for the Ramones, both Dee Dee and Johnny denied that he influenced the Ramone's sound. During interviews for the End of the Century: The Story of the Ramones, Dee Dee stated that Tommy was simply "at the right place at the right time".
