The RAMONES

I Wanna Be Sedated 12"

Plus The Ramones On 45 Mega Mix

This may be my all time favorite Ramones record, and that is saying a lot.  Subtitled "Ramones-On-45-Mega-Mix!"  As far as I know, it's never been officially released commercially anywhere.  It is not the 'I Wanna Be Sedated' you usually hear.  It was promo only and not that many people really even know about it.  Back when it came out, there was a big craze for mixing together a bunch of songs, adding a beat behind them, and it would just be enough to start getting into the one song when it faded into the next.  The big hit was 'Stars On 45.'  Sire Records decided to do it with the RAMONES as a promo for RamonesMania, a hits type lp (as if they even really had hits back when they started).  The label says Ed Stasium and Paul Robb did the remix, and it's definitely Ramones and not disco.  It's mostly I Wanna Be Sedated, the same as the regular version in many ways since they took it from those original recordings, but also ohhh so very different!  They mixed in little snippets of other songs, some of their count downs (1,2,3,4), some Hey Ho Let's Go, etc. 
An incredibly fun disk that no Ramones fan should be without.  Man, I miss these guys!

featuring the Updated Sedated Radio Mix (2:29), Ramones-On-45 Mega Mix (5:12) & a cover version of the 1910 Fruitgum Company's bubblegum classic Indian Giver (album version).  I had several of these and this is a brand new copy - they were never sealed.

Although this is an EP, it plays at 33, not 45. 

For over 20 years, Venus Records was one of the top collector's stores in Greenwich Village, if not the world.  I closed it down in 1999 and kept most of the stock in storage and have just recently started selling it off.  There are still a lot of great items to come, so, you may want to put us on your watch list.  I'm mostly getting out of the music business and doing online marketing and helping business owners with their strategies, but plan on keeping my good reputation in the music business intact.  I started with music mail order in 1976, and now am back to doing mail order again.  If you ever have a problem, contact me.
