Bad Reputation includes the bonus tracks: "Call Me Lightning," "Hanky Panky," "What Can I Do For You?", "You Don't Own Me" and "Bad Reputation" (Live with The Remains of The Ramones). New for the 2006 remastered release is enhanced video material featuring: "Shout," filmed at the Convention Hall in Asbury Park, NJ August 7, 1982, "Do You Wanna Touch Me" recorded at The Summit, Houston, TX October 7, 1983 and "Bad Reputation" from Long Island, Brewing Company, Jericho, NY January 20, 1998 with The Remains.
I Love Rock N’ Roll follows in the same traditional expanded artwork that holds true to its initial LP release in 1982. Bonus tracks include: "Louie, Louie," "You Don't Know What You Got" live, "Summertime Blues" and "Nag" with The Coasters. This 2006 remastered version includes previously unreleased enhanced video material featuring: "I Love Rock N' Roll" filmed live at The Capitol Theatre, Passsaic, NJ August 17, 1983, "Victim of Circumstance" shot live at The Summit, Houston, TX October 7, 1983 and a special "On Tour in Panama City," filmed on the band’s 1984 tour in Panama.
Evil Stig is one of those gems some fans may over-look as it doesn’t carry the name "JOAN JETT" on the cover. Evil Stig was a project important to Joan. Originally released in 1995, this CD features JOAN JETT on lead vocals performing songs by the Seattle-based band, The Gits. Mia Zapata, the lead vocalist of The Gits was brutally raped and murdered on July 7, 1993.
Joan joined The Gits for a series of live performances to raise awareness of violence against woman. Royalities for this 1995 release were contributed to an investigation fund to find Mia's killer. An arrest was made on January 11, 2003. After a trial date in 2004, Mia's killer was convicted of the crime.
This is the first time Evil Stig has been remastered and released by BLACKHEART RECORDS. In addition to the compact disc’s 13 tracks, the 2006 remaster includes enhanced video footage filmed live at LA Luna Theatre in Portland, OR on March 5, 1995. The videos footage includes complete song footage of "The Drinking Song," "Sign of the Crab" & "Spear and Magic Helmet."
Originally released in 1997, "Fit To Be Tied – Great Hits by JOAN JETT AND THE BLACKHEARTS" has been remastered and includes a new classic photo of Joan on the cover. This classic photo is more of a tribute and holds true to the time when Jett ruled the Billboard charts.
The 2006 remastered Blackheart titles are the first in a series of Jett’s back catalog. Set for release on June 6th to concide with Joan’s 2006 release, "SINNER."
