Joan Jett And The Blackhearts – Up Your Alley

59,99

I’m sure that in any serious discussion of rock-chick luminaries there would be the inevitable nods to the incendiary booze-blues of Janis Joplin, the subtle explosiveness of Grace Slick or the swirling sorcery of Stevie Nicks. Unfortunately, within the very narrow corridors of the rock caste system you’ll never talk (or drink) long enough to get around to a performer who is every bit their equal – Joan Jett.

In many respects she never escaped the extremely long and suffocating shadow of her one monster hit, I Love Rock and Roll, a heavy rotation radio staple of the early 1980’s. Unfortunately, while her megawatt star turn was fleeting her early body of work has more than guaranteed her legacy – specifically Bad Reputation – a balls-to-the-wall rock record that is still incinerating iPods even today.

However, Jett remains the ultimate guilty pleasure. And, if the rock Illuminati who all talk a good game about Joplin (my bet is that they have not voluntarily played her records for twenty years) were truthful, any party is a much better affair with Jett’s snarling, erotic swagger on soundtrack.
