You've done a fantastic job, man. I think it's just so hard to critique your stuff because you're always gonna' be in the ballpark even if you only half-ass mix something, and you're like me...you tweak the fuckers for quite awhile, so by the time I get around to hearing the 8th remix, it's pretty damned solid.
Now, I haven't heard the original, but I have to believe this sounds better than the original, because (no offense to the Ramones) but you've probably spent more time recording and mixing this one song than they spent recording and mixes all of their albums put together.
I thought your recitation of the Ramones' gear and changes was fascinating, personally.
Oh, and I'd personally like the kick to have more impact in the chest thumping department, but not much more... You have a great drum sound, and I'd just like the kick to scare me a bit more, but it wouldn't be real true to the genre either probably.
