Up Your Alley >>
Though Up Your Alley isn't her best album, it did garner Joan Jett considerable attention, mostly due to the hit single "I Hate Myself for Loving You". Though most of the material on this album isn't as good, there are a few high points, including the cover of Chuck Berry's "Tulane", the original songs "Desire" and "Ridin' With James Dean", and "Little Liar", which was co-written with hit-making songwriter Desmond Child. While not as energetic as her earlier material, Up Your Alley contains plenty of Jett's crunching guitars, gravel-throated voice, and defiant sneer. -- Genevieve Williams
Fit To Be Tied: Joan Jett & The Blackhearts (Bonus Enhanced Footage) >>
It's only recently that Joan Jett has received her due as a seminal figure, an uncompromising female rocker whose first allegiance is to rock & roll rather than feminist dogma. First as the spiritual center of ahead-of-their-time teen femme-rockers The Runaways' and subsequently on her own, Jett has stayed true to her no-nonsense muse, and in the process has become an essential role model for a new generation of female musicians. This 15-song best-of contains such essential slabs of Jett-powered rock as "I Love Rock 'n' Roll," "Bad Reputation," "I Hate Myself for Loving You," "Do You Wanna Touch Me? (Oh Yeah!)," and her reworking of her old Runaways anthem "Cherry Bomb." --Scott Schinder
