Product Description
Product Details
Performer Notes
  • The Runaways include: Joan Jett (vocals, guitar); Cherie Currie (vocals, piano); Jackie Fox (vocals, bass); Sandy West (vocals, drums); Lita Ford (guitars).
  • U.K. remaster
  • A huge improvement over the fine but slightly awkward self-titled debut, QUEENS OF NOISE finds the Runaways taking a stronger hand in the songwriting, with co-producer Earle Mankey (Sparks, Concrete Blonde) bringing the overall sound more in line with the burgeoning punk movement than the glitter-rock vibe of the first album. More importantly, QUEENS OF NOISE is the album on which guitarist Joan Jett asserts herself as the leader of the band, writing two of the album's best songs, "Take It Or Leave It" and the sexy "I Love Playing With Fire," and taking over lead vocals from Cherie Currie on half of the 10 songs here. Although the extended guitar-solo closer "Johnny Guitar" foretells the more purely metallic direction the Runaways would take (as lead guitarist Lita Ford started to challenge Jett's punkier tastes), the rest of QUEENS OF NOISE stands up to the best American proto-punk records.
