The late 1970s and early 1980s saw the rise of butt-kicking female rockers who followed the punk wave of the late 1970s: Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders, the Go-Gos, and the Runaways, the seminal American punk band that gave us Joan Jett. Jett was a chart-topping feminist icon of the early 1980s, a tough rock & roller in leather and eye makeup, sexy and defiant and tough. Though pop-music styles may have passed her by, Jett remains a satisfying live performer, as this set reveals. Taped in 2001, the rather amateurishly shot show offers Jett blazing through a list of both her own hits and the hits of others. The songs that thrilled today's 35- to 40-year-olds when they were in high school include "I Love Rock 'n' Roll," "I Hate Myself for Loving You," and "Do You Wanna Touch Me." Jett also displays her exceptional taste in covering everything from Bruce Springsteen's "Light of Day" to the Runaways' "Cherry Bomb" to "Love Is All Around," the Mary Tyler Moore Show theme song. DVD features include a pair of videos, biography, discography, and photo album. --Marshall Fine
