We have a wide-ranging conversation with CNN anchor Alisyn Camerota about the Ramones, her intimate history with punk rock, her career in news, Prince (!) and especially her must-read memoir, Combat Love.
 
The Ramones are undoubtedly one of the most important punk bands of all-time and their career remains a crucial chapter in the history of American music. The band's third studio album, 1977's Rocket to Russia, was not the Ramones' biggest commercial success, but it did include several iconic Ramones tracks like "Rockaway Beach," "Cretin Hop" and "Sheena Is a Punk Rocker." Moreover, it was a crucial album in the life of a young Alisyn Camerota!
