The Runaways, The Runaways, 1976 on Mercury

Debut album from Joan Jett, Lita Ford, Cherie Currie, Jackie Fox, and Sandy West, aka The Runaways – though apparently Nigel Harrison actually plays the bass on the album.

Currie published a memoir (Neon Angel: A Memoir of a Runaway) on which the 2010 biopic The Runaways was based, with Kristen Stewart playing Joan Jett, Dakota Fanning as Curriue, and Michael Shannon playing manager Kim Fowley.

My copy is the Vinyl Me Please reissue from 2023, a numbered limited edition on blue vinyl pressed at Citizen Vinyl.

Happy Birthday to Cherie Currie, born on this day in 1959, Encino, California. She was one of the girl who started it all..

Fifty years ago today Joan Jett and Sandy West formed The Runaways, and became widely recognized as the first all female rock and roll band. This post celebrates another milestone but it seemed appropriate to share it again today.

Cherry Bomb – Joan Jett turns 65. #MusicisLife #TedTocksCovers

Five years ago, Joan Jett was on the circuit promoting the documentary that chronicled her life up to that time in her life. She summarized things by saying; My lot in life is to battle… You win it…
