I Slept with Joey Ramone

A Family Memoir

About this book

A “powerful” (Rolling Stone) memoir of the punk icons Ramones from front man Joey Ramone’s brother Mickey Leigh.

When the Ramones recorded their debut album in 1976, it heralded the true birth of punk rock. Legendary front man Joey Ramone gave voice to the disaffected youth of the seventies and eighties, and the band influenced the counterculture for decades to come. With honesty, humor, and grace, Joey’s brother, Mickey Leigh, shares a fascinating, intimate look at the turbulent life of one of America’s greatest—and unlikeliest—music icons. While the music lives on for new generations to discover, I Slept with Joey Ramone is the enduring portrait of a man who struggled to find his voice and of the brother who loved him.
