AUDIO: Joan Jett (1983)

John Tobler, Rock's Backpages audio, 1983

The Blackheart talks about 'I Love Rock 'n' Roll'; her former Runaways bandmates; her new Album; meeting her producer Kenny Laguna; the "girls can't play" criticism; the fuss surrounding her cover of the Stones' 'Star Star'; her love of Sly & the Family Stone and covering 'Everyday People'; her own songs not being chosen as singles, and why she has yet to break in the UK.
