Suffering from crippling OCD at times, Joey Ramone was nonetheless an iconic, punk counterculture rock and roll icon as lead singer and songwriter of The Ramones. Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee and Tommy – the original Ramones, all deceased – never achieved million-seller status for any of their 14 albums but their legacy extends well beyond the five NYC boroughs, with Joey’s snarling vocals and gangly, leather jacketed image turning him into a 20th century countercultural icon.

claim_to_fame: Music

best_know_for: Webb Pierce was one of the most popular honky-tonk vocalist, songwriter and guitarist of the 1950s, charting more number one hits than any other country artist during the decade. Webb's biggest hit was "In the Jailhouse Now", which charted for 37 weeks in 1955, 21 of them at number one. Pierce also charted number one for several weeks each with his recordings of "Slowly" (1954), "Love, Love, Love" (1955), "I Don't Care" (1955), "There Stands the Glass" (1953), "More and More" (1954), "I Ain't Never" (1959), and his first number one "Wondering", which stayed at the top spot for four of its 27 weeks' charting in 1952. Other hits included "Teenage Boogie," "Tupelo County Jail" and "Bye Bye Love," later a hit for the Everly Brothers. For many, Pierce, with his flamboyant Nudie suits, twin silver dollar-lined convertibles and guitar-shaped pool became the most recognizable face of country music of the era. Pierce was a one-time member of the Grand Ole Opry, was posthumously inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame and Cash Box Magazine, a music industry weekly, named him top country male vocalist of the year eight times from 1952 to 1963.
