Johnny Thunders - So Alone Special Remarquable Edition Double LP

Review by Ana Rodriguez

The So Alone Special Remarquable Edition Double LP by Johnny Thunders is a must-have for any fan of punk rock or rock and roll. The album, which was originally released in 1978, has been remastered and reissued in a beautiful double LP format that includes a bonus disc of rare and unreleased tracks.

The album features some of Thunders' best-known songs, including "You Can't Put Your Arms Around a Memory" and "Born to Lose," as well as some lesser-known gems like "It's Not Enough" and "As Tears Go By." Thunders' raw, emotive vocals and blistering guitar work are on full display throughout the album, and the remastered sound quality really brings out the nuances in his playing.

The bonus disc is a real treat for fans, featuring live recordings, demos, and alternate versions of some of the album's songs. The standout track on the bonus disc is a live version of "Chinese Rocks," a song co-written by Thunders and Dee Dee Ramone that was famously covered by the Ramones.

Summary by Ana Rodriguez

the So Alone Special Remarquable Edition Double LP is a fantastic package that showcases Johnny Thunders at his best. It's a must-have for any collector or fan of punk rock and rock and roll, and it's a great way to rediscover one of the most underrated artists of the genre.
