So is Joan. Worked one of her concerts backstage and she brought us out pizzas and Cokes and spent about a half hour chatting with us. Couldn't believe how cool and unpretentious she was.
Joan with her black hair and red jumpsuit, and Lita with her blonde hair and black bodysuit were such a great contrast. Both stunningly beautiful in quite different ways.

Whoa! Back in january 1978 I got me a brand new British pressing of "Waiting For The Night"! I just loved it to bits, I still do, I always will! Now I'm but an old geezer of 64 going on 65 but, what the heck! RIP Sandy, you beautiful surfer girl! Cherie remains my all-time favorite. Much love, ladies! ♥
Lita ford already a great guitarist at such a young age. And manifested into the greatest guitar hero! Lita the force of the Runaways and Sandy the heartbeat ❤
Joan and Lita were musically going in two different directions, with Joan going in the direction of Punk and Lita in the direction of Heavy Metal, and Cherie Currie had already quit the band by this point so the breakup was pretty much inevitable.
It was a nice steppingstone for Joan's career, so it wasn't all bad. It would have been nice to see how the Runaways would have done together through the 80s.
All girl groups are prone to this. Camille Paglia commented about this very real and natural dynamic in female rock groups. They need a strategy for conflict resolution. Men fight and get over it and move forward. When women fight they won't stop even when the problem has been resolved. Women need to sublimate their ego with a "take one for the team" attitude which frankly, is not natural in women.
Better than talented actually Anita; even though The Runaways NEVER got the recognition they desperately needed in their beloved USA they certainly were &, frankly, STILL ARE among the greatest Rock bands to ever graced the stage 🇺🇸 👎
Appreciated by me. They were the reason I picked up the guitar in the first place. Tried to learn everything Lita did, she was my hero. I even managed later in my life to have a melody maker and a Hamer on the wall in the bedroom. Don´t think my girlfriend understood though...
Totally agree, the radio refused to further their career. Sad they didn't do better on the chart's! "Fanny" too, girl band's, didn't have a chance ( in the male dominated) rock- n- roll world then.
This video and the album "Waiting for the night " by the Runaways gives a glimpse into what a great 80s Heavy Metal band might have been with Joan, Lita, and Sandy.
I think they were perceived a bit differently in the UK, compared to the USA. One of the London gigs I saw was soon after 'Waitin' was released, and it was predominantly a punk audience, although not entirely.

Aw, she was basic at best, but you couldn't replace her persona in the group, kinda like Ringo. My crush as a teen was her, not JJ although I saw JJ a bunch at clubs around NJ/NY back in the day. May Sandy rest in peace.
Joan Jett and her band was SO AWESOME on the Motley Crue and Def Leppard Stadium Tour ! So glad , that I got to finally see and hear her talent in person !
Lita has been around the rock scene for many years, seen her a lot through the years, never understood the draw til I saw these clips of early runaways. Really stunning.
Have to watch this couple times a day. Frickin' 🪨's!!! 🎸 Love the bass lines! 🔊 You can actually hear it quite clearly. Joan's voice and Lita's 👀. Killer...!

The 60's and 70's brought out the Punk, Blues, Funk & Rock foundation of Rock & Roll dynamics in a soulful, intense, enchanting way.. we are so lucky to see what lead to, formed, and watch Pop, Alternative, & Grunge explode onto the scene..🖤

I just can't get over how MODERN they sound and look. Seriously, you could transport them to the 2020s just like that and they would COMPLETELY fit in. They were so ridiculously ahead of their time.
I don't know why people say underrated when it comes to the Runaway's, they are from my era,I have seen them live and they were very much appreciated, they were loaded with talent and "Cherry Bomb" got tons of airplay. Everyone who went solo from that band was successful.
I remember seeing their album in the store, but had no idea who they were. Didn't even know Joan Jett was a former member when she rose to success in her solo career. Didn't know about Lita until she did the song with Ozzie. Guess I was listening to different rock at the time.
People are intellectually lazy these days. Rather than search out the facts you pointed out, they'd rather just repeat 'underrated' on all of the videos from bands they like.
When they came out even though I was a kid , the all female thing didn't get my attention, I was already used to lot of all female groups and lead singers like Fanny and Suzi Quatro , etc. It was the sound and the songs . I heard them long before I saw the band, and then of course I had a crush on them all but thats a different story .
I listened to them here and there throughout the years but for some reason I decided to really listen to their songs for good this time 🙂🙂 They were extremely talented and they had a musical maturity that would have put more seasoned bands to shame... Joan Jett's vocals are right on point, as is her guitar playing ( interesting seeing her play a strat ) and of course Lita Ford and the rest of the band does a fabulous job... Strictly speaking as a guitar player and collector I couldn't help noticing Lita Ford is playing a Burns Flyte 😁😁 and if I was still 18 she'd completely make me lose my mind... Very impressive band...
You can really hear the unique Burns Flyte tone cutting through the mix. They are great guitars and when used properly can really elevate the sound of a rock song.
I seriously miss these days. This linear existence we experience creates moments to cherish. This era was full of fond, unforgettable ones. Thanks for sharing this.
Used to be the trouble maker Hated home, I was a sweet heartbreaker But now I have my dream I’m so rowdy for eighteen Never read a single book Hated home and the dirty looks But now I live my life There’s a lot I’ve seen at eighteen Oh, yeah~ School days, school days I’m older now but what will I find ‘bout my School days, school days I’m starting to slip, I’m losing my mind Used to be the wild one Hated class, only live for fun I mean, I’ve got my schemes At the crazy age of eighteen Never made the honor roll Hated rules what I was told Now that I am almost free It’s a dangerous scene When you’re eighteen

Saw the Runaways @ the Calderone concert Hall. They opened for some other band, we split after the Runaways did there set. The headliners were a band called the Ramones
The Runaways in top form just 2-3 years before Joan Jett became a huge star on her own. You can see in the clip above that Joan Jett had all the moves and was already a rock 'n roll icon!
@@waynebenedict5785 In the mid 1980's after Jett's popularity waned and before Ford had her few hit songs it may have been possible. But it would not have happened due to Jett's manager Kenny Laguna had her tightly under his control.
Joan's vocals always had both shine and grit through the tune, and always attitude.
This comment is as underrated as The Runaways themselves!
Her voice was pretentious. Like today's garbage!
That's why I love her!

It's hard to believe they were just teenagers, this was a talented band who were underrated and not appreciated.
Not appreciated by the mainstream rock world and FM radio, but DEFINITELY appreciated by me.

Used to be the trouble maker
Hated homework, was a sweet heart breaker
But now I have my dream
I'm so rowdy for eighteen
Never read a single book
Hated homework and the dirty looks
But now I live my life
There's a lot I've seen at eighteen, oh yeah
School days, school days
I'm older now and what will I find about my
School day, school days
I'm starting to slip, I'm losin' my mind
Used to be the wild one
Hated class only lived for fun
I'm mean and got my schemes
At the crazy age of eighteen
Never made the honor roll
Hated rules what I was told
Now I am almost free
It's a dangerous scene when you're eighteen, oh yeah
School days, school days
I'm older now and what will I find about my
School day, school days
I'm starting to slip, I'm losin' my mind
School days, school days
I'm older now and what will I find about my
School day, school days
I'm starting to slip, I'm losin' my mind
School days, school days

School day, school days

School days, school days
I'm older now and what

If only Joan, Lita and Cherry reunite someday it would be awesome. Life is too short
I remember listening to this in 1977 when I was 16 years old
Joan Jett and Lita Ford, talent in action !
Used to be the trouble maker
Hated home, I was a sweet heartbreaker
But now I have my dream
I’m so rowdy for eighteen
Never read a single book
Hated home and the dirty looks
But now I live my life
There’s a lot I’ve seen at eighteen
Oh, yeah~
School days, school days
I’m older now but what will I find ‘bout my
School days, school days
I’m starting to slip, I’m losing my mind
Used to be the wild one
Hated class, only live for fun
I mean, I’ve got my schemes
At the crazy age of eighteen
Never made the honor roll
Hated rules what I was told
Now that I am almost free
It’s a dangerous scene
When you’re eighteen

I had just started playing the drums then (I still do) and I was about 16-17 and I so wanted to be their drummer.

Absolute perfection caught in time , they were warriors on their way to the top in a dominant male held rock music world ! And they did it !
THANK *GOD* FOR THIS

Joan and Lita got the bulk of the attention but for me it was Cherie Currie. My first Rock chick crush 😍
I remember being "1" and jamming out to this in my crib..
The Runaways in top form just 2-3 years before Joan Jett became a huge star on her own. You can see in the clip above that Joan Jett had all the moves and was already a rock 'n roll icon!
One of my most favourite bands ever, their music was so awesome and not to mention they were super gorgeous
Sandy West was a brilliant drummer
Lita Ford is gorgeous & great guitarist 🎸
Love the Runaways.
Love the Runaways! Have Joan Jett many times, wish there could be a reunion!
Doubt it. Drummer is dead and too much bad blood between the remaining members.
@@robertdendooven7258 I know, Sandy West was a great drummer and founding member with Joan Jett. Still fun to wish for it.
@@waynebenedict5785 In the mid 1980's after Jett's popularity waned and before Ford had her few hit songs it may have been possible. But it would not have happened due to Jett's manager Kenny Laguna had her tightly under his control.
@@robertdendooven7258 I know, wishful thinking.
LOVED the Runaways they had the sound I liked growing up and going to and from school etc
Hottest girl band of all time! Love how Joan is playing a Strat...I have one just like it bit a HSS version for heavy metal!
Come on Lita Ford is the most talented in this band , she soo good !
Best female rock band ever!!!
Still Lita Ford remember us all what beauty is.....
