Marc Bell (better known as Marky Ramone, born July 15 1956, in Brooklyn, New York) is an American drummer. He is perhaps most known for being the drummer for the highly influential punk rock group Ramones.
Marc Bell started playing drums when he was 16, for hard rock band Dust. He recorded two albums with the band, before getting into the punk scene in the early 1970s, He played drums with Jayne County, BackstreetBoys (Not to be confused with the Backstreet Boys) and The Voidoids. After two years with the latter, Bell left in pursue of a new band. About that time, Tommy Ramone decided to quit the Ramones in 1978 to concentrate on managing and producing the band. After being asked by Johnny Ramone and Dee Dee Ramone to join, he accepted, and received the name of Marky Ramone.
Marky played drums with the Ramones for 15 years. He left the band in 1983 to get rid of his addiction to alcohol (or “to fight his demons” as he put it in his own words) and was replaced by Richie Ramone. He returned in 1987 and played with the band up until their retirement in 1996[1].
Since playing with the Ramones Marky has produced two albums as Marky Ramone and the Intruders in the 1990s, both re-issued on the Start Of The Century double CD/LP, released 2006.
In 1996, Marky joined Dee Dee Ramone and his wife to play with The Ramainz, a tribute band to the Ramones.
In 2000, Marky joined Joey Ramone, lead vocalist of the Ramones, to record Joey’s only solo album, entitled Don’t Worry About Me. That year he also joined the touring incarnation of horror punk progenitors The Misfits, with Jerry Only of the original Misfits and Dez Cadena of Black Flag.
