Joey Ramone, Boston, Massachusetts, 1981, Performing John Lennon photographed by Allan Tannenbaum inMichael Grecco captures Joey Ramone in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1981, standing at the microphone with one arm raised in a charged stage gesture. The black and white frame emphasizes the lean vertical rhythm of the microphone stand, Ramone's posture, and the dark performance space around him. The photograph situates Joey within the live energy of the Ramones while preserving the stripped down immediacy central to Grecco's punk era work.
