"Fiend Club Lounge is one of the best renditions of some of the best Misfits songs ever recorded. Any true, and I mean true musician will appreciate the intricacies of the instrumentations on this CD."
— Misfits guitarist Franché Coma"Hilarious…'Teenagers from Mars' becomes the bopping soundtrack to a 1960s Fifth Avenue shopping spree, complete with twiddling xylophones."

With the group's third album, Ramones Songbook, the Nutley Brass won widespread critical acclaim for their twinkling and tantalizing arrangements of such classics as "I Wanna Be Sedated" and "Blitzkrieg Bop." Songs from this CD can be heard in the documentary Ramones Raw and the movie Sugar and Spice. Special thanks to the late Joey Ramone for his involvement.
"Ramones meets the elevator head-on through the clever genius of Sam Elwitt."
— Joey Ramone"The arrangements reveal the sweet pop core at the heart of the Ramones' songwriting…'Beat on the Brat' becomes irrepressibly perky in the process."
— Q Magazine
