Johnny Ramone - (October 8, 1948 - September 15, 2004), known as Johnny Ramone, was the legendary co-founder and guitarist of the punk band the Ramones. In his first tientos as a musician he tried his luck with Tommy Ramone in the band that was called Tangerine Puppets. Already at the Ramones, he maintained a distant and conflictive relationship with the band's vocalist, Joey Ramone; relationship that got worse when Johnny married Joey's ex-girlfriend. This confrontation ended with their friendship, but not with the band, which continued its journey until well into 1996.
