This explosive performance from the Ritz, NYC on 3rd January 1982 boasts a solid mix of her overlooked 1980 solo debut (Joan Jett aka Bad Reputation) and her debut as Joan Jett and The Blackhearts. Boosted by an incendiary take on Bowie's punk anthem Rebel Rebel and the Sex Pistols-penned Black Leather (originally recorded by The Runaways for their final album), Joan Jett and The Blackhearts live in NYC is a mesmerising document of American punk rock and a testimony to the enduring power and appeal of rock 'n' roll
in the hands of runaway rocker; Joan Jett.
