![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Cruder and certainly less predictable than her official all covers platter THE HIT LIST, FLASHBACK is a "greatest hits" for JOAN JETT fans who like to boogie outside the classic rock box. 2.6 Dirty Deeds (Done Dirt Cheap) 2.7 If You Want Blood (You've Got It) 2.8 It's A Long Way To The Top (If You Wanna Rock 'N Roll) 2.9 Sin City. JETT's motorcycle mama attitude and grimy growl also decimate THE PISTOLS' label-bashing EMI anthem (renamed MCA), BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN's LIGHT OF DAY (from her lone film role) and snotty RUNAWAYS oldie CHERRY BOMB (backed here by Riot GRRRL group L7). Obvious glam influences like ALICE COOPER's BE MY LOVER and DAVID BOWIE's REBEL REBEL, 1910 FRUITGUM COMPANY's bubble-licious INDIAN GIVER and THE SHEEP's ultra obscure garage gem HIDE AND SEEK all receive gloriously blackh earted three chord interpretations. The rebellious rarities collection FLASHBACK spits out a healthy dose of cool redo's, a smattering of back to basics originals and an alternate take on I LOVE ROCK & ROLL backed by the SEX PISTOLS (itself a cover of an ARROWS track). JOAN JETT & THE BLACKHEARTS-FLASHBACK: If LINDA RONSTADT was pop music's queen of tasty covers throughout the seventies, ex-RUNAWAYS stand out JOAN JETT was hot on her heels as rock and roll's slam-bangin' eighties version. ![]()
