Smash You!

​Love this one. Written by drummer Richie Ramone, who was at the time a newcomer to the band,  as part of the Too Tough to Die sessions.   The song is indicative of how quickly Richie adapted to the spirit of the band.   Although it did not end up on the album, it was released as the b-side to the “Howling at the Moon” single and became a staple of the band’s live set for a time.  In 2002, a live version of the song was released on (and gave its name to) Smash You Live 85, a bonus disc of live material released as part of the band’s Loud, Fast Ramones compilation.
