''Bad Reputation'' is the debut solo album by Joan Jett, originally self-released in 1980 as ''Joan Jett'' after her previous band The Runaways disbanded, then re-issued on Boardwalk Records in 1981 as ''Bad Reputation''. ==Background== Producer Kenny Laguna financed the album's recording using borrowed studio credits. Recorded before Joan Jett formed The Blackhearts, the majority of the album features Jett backed by members of the Roll-Ups, with Lea Hart on guitar, Jeff Peters on bass and Paul Simmons on drums. Other tracks include well known musicians, such as the Sex Pistols' Steve Jones and Paul Cook, Blondie's Clem Burke and Frank Infante. After independently recording the album with Laguna, Jett took the record to a number of major record labels, all of which were uninterested in releasing the project. Rather than continue to hunt for a willing label, Laguna and Jett decided to fund the pressing of the album themselves. The original, self-released, version of the album was simply titled ''Joan Jett'' and was sold directly to concert-goers and record stores out of Laguna's trunk. The album sold relatively well, prompting its re-release a year later as ''Bad Reputation'' on Boardwalk Records, with identical tracklisting. Jett said that the new title referred to the bad reputation that she had as a former member of The Runaways. When the album's European rights were secured through Ariola Records, "Hanky Panky" replaced "Wooly Bully" as the final song on Side 2. When the record was issued through Boardwalk Records in the US under the title ''Bad Reputation'', the label stuck with "Wooly Bully" as the final track, making the "Hanky Panky" import version a real collector's item. However, the song was later included as a bonus track on CD re-releases. The original Australian release featured a completely different cover and "Hanky Panky" replaced "Shout". "Do You Wanna Touch Me" was also a huge hit in Australia when it was released hot on the heels of "I Love Rock 'n' Roll" and "Crimson and Clover" from Jett's 1982 album. In 1999, the album was again re-issued, this time on CD with several bonus tracks and a remastered version of the original album. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bad Reputation (Joan Jett album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
