The subtitle that mentions Cheri Currie singing backups with Joan Jett is incorrect. That's Lita Ford singing backups. Currie left the band by then. That's why Joan Jett was singing.
I knew I knew it was Lita. Thanx for the info!!
Tradução
When I read that I knew it was wrong.
that is correct I was wondering cause i didn't see Cherrie but I don't think she was out of the band. I think she was temporarily unavailable cause she was busy getting her abortion at that time. Joan stepped up as lead vocalist in her absence and Cherrie got upset there was a lot going on behind the scenes at that time.
@@seanburgmeier yes Kim Foley there manager got her pregnant not a lot of people know a lot about them cause they were never much of a thing in the states but they were huge in Japan.
Sandy. Was. A. Fantastic. Drummer. Rip sandy
Joan Jett and Lita Ford.. what badass rockers. Just badass. Hard to find a better term.
I doubt it would ever happen, but I would love to see a collaboration of the two someday.
I think BADASS sums it up!!
@@boyertb you just saw the collaboration! Joan is playing the Les Paul and Lita is playing the Explorer in this vid 🤷
@@dasschaf2476 Lita Ford and The Edge were both playing the Gibson Explorer in the late 70's.
@@skarath Pretty sure Lita was playing a Hamer Explorer knock-off, not a Gibson. TBH I would take the Hamer over a Gibson any day of the week, they were making fantastic guitars pre-2008. Don't know what their current production is like now that the original owners sold up.
IT’S NOT LIP-SYNCED!! Kinda rare for 1977 U.K. television!! I LOVE THIS!!!
It's The Old Grey Whistle Test. Always properly live. Much-missed programme.
Sandy West was one hell of a drummer. RIP
she was a bitch too
@@coonassprepper5243 We talk about your sister again?
She sure was ❤️
love to smell her drum throne after a show
do you play Drums too ? I hear something differend !
We all know that’s Lita Ford, right? Everybody but the captioner, anyway.
Yep.
Pretty much.
Real man can get lesbian chicks my jewish friend... not for you for sure.
I thought she looked like Lita Ford lol
I find her jumps a bit of a disappointment. She'd have appeared more authentic without those weak scissor like jumps.
Worked/partied w/Sandy. There was a lot more to her as a person… So glad had time w/her. ❤ Sandy❤
Sandy West 😍 Rest in Peace
i'm 15 now and i can't imagine going on the road and doing everything they did! wish i was alive in the 70's so i could see how good they were, one of my favourite bands, each one of them is so loveable
My favorite one was Sandy (drummer) ❤️
So by now your what 23? I was a little kid and wasn't into rock when I was that young. I was only 7-8 years old. The fact you became a fan so far after they became who they are, is awesome! It shows that music is timeless and can span every generation. I did like KISS as a kid, but not for the music. The fire, blood, etc. I became a fan, or learned what music affected me when I was 12-13 years old. 🎶 I got a cassette of 2 bands. Side A was Twisted Sister-Stay Hungry and Side B was Mötley Crüe-Shöut at the Devil. It wasn't until I played Side B that I really got into Metal. Mötley Crüe became my favorite band. Soon after I saw Twisted Sister at the Mecca Auditorium. They opened for Iron Maiden. Who now are my 2nd favorite band. Tied with Megadeath. The show they both did was insane! I became a Metal Head! After that concert I was so LUCKY to have been able to see Ozzy Osborne and Mötley Crüe, Dokken, Iron Maiden again, Mötley Crüe 10+more times, Ozzy again twice, Judas Priest, Metallica, Aerosmith with Guns N Roses, Scorpions, and tons more bands. Cheap Trick and Ratt was also bad ass! My point is this music is, for me anyway awesome. To hear that someone your age is jamming to music that was around before I even got into it is bad ass! Keep JAMMING! PLAY IT LOUD. Remember if it's too loud, your too old! And your hearing this from a old f**k! Well old to you.
I was born is the early 80s when Lita Ford was... fully formed? First BIG crush lol
I went back & discovered The Runaways when I was learning guitar; always cool to see someone young getting into the classics.
They were a creation of their manager, who abused them terribly.
23
Just saw Lita Ford on Saturday in Jim Thorpe, PA. And she's still rockin and kicking ass in 2022.
this band were incredible. Perfect mix of punk and metal elements
You're right. Their music had the attitude from both of those genres.
There needs to be some investigation and recognition of Betty Blowtorch and Butt Trumpet!
No joke, trust this old punk metaller!
This song is simple, boring hard rock. No punk element to it at all. Don't be deceived, Joan Jett's grimacing just doesn't cut it.
@@nobbynoris Huh? Then how come Lemmy liked them?
@@nobbynoris When this band came out there were no women only bands. You don't get the concept of Punk, do you? I was a teen in the 70s. All the music then was boring, slogging Led Zep type bands. These bands were refreshing.
Great movie ' The Runaways ' , nice to see them on Old Grey Whistle Test. Those were the days, love Joan Jett absolutely brilliant! 👍
Joan was blessed with such an awesome look, awesome voice, awesome everything!!
Yeah I've loved Joan Jett forever.
It always broke my heart that she plays for the other team.
😪
I agree as far as the look goes, as for the voice ... well ... I reckon good singing may not exactly have been what this band was about, so be it ...
845callaway Joan jet a total fox and Lita super babe to always love both the same and Vicky is right up there with them in looks if cherries was still there it would probably be the most awesome assembly of beautiful girls tother at once if you had to pick one it would be a hard choice. Annzey Anne. Bye.
I think Sandy West is pretty freakin hot. She would be my first choice ;)
Check out a band on her label. The Dollyrots. I’m so awesome. Lol
I love Lita Ford's little jumps and head bangin
Head bangin'.....nooooo.....don't say it that way! I'm already dyin'!
You do? It's soooo forced! None of these girls are into this....as they say: "They are phoning it in"
She actually copied her daddy Richie blackmore on her leg apart jump. She even is wearing the same exact outfit he wore when he did that jump in the beethoven cover song he did.
kendall Evans phoning it in because they are playing to backing track. Hard to give a shit
@@jonsmith3725 the bass player is hotter than the guitarist
Just recently saw both Joan Jett on the Stadium Tour with Motley Crue and Def Leppard ; and around 2018 saw Lita Ford with Hailstorm with Lizzy Hale .
THEY BOTH are still totally awesome !
Rock in Peace Ms. Sandy West (d 2006) & Laurie McAllister (d 2011), Blessed Be.
It's Vicky Blue on bass here
@@ksodz1397 Vicky had already left the band
@@alertecobra27 nope, not until 78
@@ksodz1397Oh thanks for the info
Great video because it shows Joan giving it her punk rock all while Lita Ford tries living out her heavy metal fantasies.
+squinkque Fair point but it worked and probably helped bring fans of both types. After a fine album, don't get why Joan was apparently leaning towards glam when they made the much inferior next one.
Joan get was awesome but Lita Ford went to another level there is no comparison between the two
I don't understand your comment. You mean Joan jett gave the music a punk rock touch while Lita gave it a metal touch?
smackdowner You’re high
@StevieEthereal 528hz def had punk elements
Lita got all the boys, Joan got all the girls.
So true!!
Joan got both
one document says their manager sleeps with them making out and orgies,,
They were both scary looking...In fact I'm scared 'Stiff"!
@leslie graham like we are suppose to believe you
Love this whole band. Love Joan Jett's singing and attitude - and Lita Ford's guitar work and how she moves on stage.
I remember watching this and seeing them live on tour in the UK around about the same time. I really liked Sandy lol. I know, I know. Bless her.
Needed more closeups of Sandy West. Miss you and still love you Sandy!!
What a great sound Lita had here!The real thing no high gain amps back then just pure tube tone awesome!
Joan Jett looks so cute in Jeans, a leather jacket, and a t shirt. She looks even better than she usually does.
She should have played bass. The bassist has horrible time. Makes the performance suffer. Joan should have been Bass/vox and them a 3 piece. Would have been tighter.
It's uncanny how Joan looks like Kristen. Good casting for that movie.
fr
Or how Kristen looked like Joan in the movie
It's the Other way around.
Ikr
Don't you mean Kirstan looks like Joan Jett in the movie
Lita killing that guitar and she was only 19! But Joan style...awesome, true rocker!
If she was 19 in this video that means that was playing guitar for 9 years... enough time to be coolest guitarist ever!
Lol you guys are complete marks, when Michael schenker was 16 he was already better than guys like jimmy page back in 1972, stop over glorifying a half ass player
Your name says it all ...
SERBON ...."killing" that guitar? Lita did a lot there on stage but that guitar part was a playback.
+FreedomFighter2002 Actually, after 1973 The Old Grey Whistle Test didn't allow their performers to pre-record their material. Meaning that this performance, in 1977, was entirely live.
love that drummer,, great fills and fast.
okay but sandy is so good on the drums wow
@mickey mousey123 They were so cool I met all of them as a kid. Growing up on the Sunset Strip.....
I love that Hamer Lita's playing
They caption Cherrie Currie sharing vocals with Joan, but that blonde playing lead guitar is Lita Ford.
Correct, Cherie isn't singing.
cherrie already out of the band at this point
Yamil Cortes thank you for help me learn it properly ! I do appreciate it as I was blown away by this blonde guitar player ! Wow she's hot like fire ! Why wasn't she wearing white and black Cowboy boots with that awesome black leather outfit ( those white runners belongs to Rum DMC ) but man that girl is HOT !! Lita Ford her name WOW 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻⭐️
Lita "my eternal love" Ford
I was just gonna write that. c'mon people.
1:00 Let's ALL scream it at our computers in unison at the One Minute mark: "THAT'S LITA FORD!!!"
I did the same haha
I'm not as self-assured. I just muttered, "oh, that's Cherie? I coulda sworn it was Lita" until I got to the comments, LOL.
I did the same...THAT'S LITA FORD!!!
Had a poster of Lita Ford in my early 20s with her guitar covering the naughty bits.
Yep, did it too. Lol
While everyone's looking at the blonde and Joan Jett, is anyone watching or listening to the bass line? It's REAL GOOD!!
Strongest part of the song. Michael Steele played really well even way back then.
@@richardwallace6313 Not Mickey Steele, that's Vicki Blue on bass. Mickey left the band before they were signed.
@@DonMacGillivray yes, forgot about that, and Michael sang lead on most songs in her brief stay with the Runaways
props to lita that lady has all ways been a killa..n she still got it...the look the moves the style.. rock on Lita
You forgot her attitude, straight rocker
All three have their amps dimed. That is how they always played, and they are almost drowning out their vocal mics in that small studio. That's how Joan gets that even tougher edge to her voice. Classic Runaways.
You sure they don’t go to eleven?
@@OfficerSpock
Kim Fowley was too cheap to mod their amps.
(:
That is a serious amount of talent all in one spot!
Lol!!!! Wow!
How do you define "talent"?
This is pure attitude, bullshit talk about musical prowess is totally out of place.
Yea sure. The bass players super exciting.😅
I remember your first album. I have it, along with all the rest of your albums!!! Go Runaways!!!
Just a note for those who wouldn't catch it: at 1:00 it says Cherie Currie sharing vocals with Joan... That's Lita Ford. Cherie isn't in this video at all. Just FYI
Imo Joan Jett looks and sounds hard rock in this video and Lita looks and sounds heavy metal. They both hold their own in this clip.
too me thems both are true Rock 'n Roll.
Is there a difference between hard rock and heavy metal? (Not an argumentive question. If there is a difference what is it?)
No argument about one thing---Joan Jett and Lita Ford are both enormously talented.
@@GeorgePenton-np9rh czcams.com/video/P5ZJui3aPoQ/video.html
heavy metal.
@@GeorgePenton-np9rh hard rockczcams.com/video/d1gYJDQXPOk/video.html
Poor Sandy, she was a friend of mine, gone too soon
Really? Prove it: what was her favorite color?
I'm sorry for your loss 😔
@@th3frogman pink
The old OC scene was cool wasn't it? There is a statue of her in Dana Point
I didn't know Sandy died. She was an excellent drummer, driving the band.
I remember when this first came out.
I was a teenager back then.
Still like this song.
Still like joan Jett's music today. "20"
I seen Lita play live about 8 years after this and wow she really turned into a hell of a guitar player and vocalist also…👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
she went sexy, Joan went hard. damn what a great mix they were. from the runaways to this day still awesome madams of rock
Sandy West, awesome drummer. Power, drive. Excellent.
She was amazing live. RIP Sandy.
Sadly overlooked, being an original member of the band along with Joan. Sandy also seemed to be the most reluctant in sexualizing their look, which I respected. Natural good looks that didn’t need any embellishment.
That's a groovy ass riff! It might be one of the band's best!
Sounds like a rip of Shoot Shoot by UFO.
It is a rip off of Shoot Shoot
UFO Schenker 1975 shoot shoot
Of course it's good, it's Michael Schenker's! 😉
Reminds me of Mississippi Queen
Each had their own part to play in music history! Way to go ladies of RNR
Loved Lita in the 80s! Had know idea she played with the Runaways...not that I even knew who they were except for Joan Jet. Both great female rockers!🤟🤟
Lindas e talentosas, difícil escolher minha runaway favorita. Joan e Lita queria conhecer essas duas. Uma punk e outra do metal uau.
It´s a shame this kind of music doesn´t exist today....
Look up BBQT from Austin, not the lame Canadian band.
You can listen to any music from any era you want. It exists.
It dose its just over looked for money making shit like hip hop hip hop hip hop hip hop hip hop Jesus Christ give the damn hip hope a break for a min so some real passionate music can be born
This kind of music? You mean rockin girl bands? They don't exist anymore?
it literally does but ok- just bc radios play dumb shit doesnt mean good music doesnt exist. youd know that if you didnt keep your boomer mindset, smh
Time feel here is amazing, relaxed and a bit behind the beat but still perfectly consistent. Unusual sound for this early punk music, tempo is on the cusp of the punk music to come but they take their time with it here I love it!
Punk? WTF? LOL!. Overrated ? Yes, but admirable .
I'm the same age as Joan Jett, I started a band in 75 with four other guys which included my best friend Bobby by 1980 we had just him and me and I quit and joined the army. We went through 4 drummers, 5 guitar players, 1 singer, 2 keyboardist and 2 managers. Our biggest mistake was I could not talk them into leaving Missouri to go to either coast to play.
Joan Jett is a FUCKING kick ass musician (and a KILLER actress!) Happens she is UTTERLY shy !!! I have a recorded 1/2 hour phone conversation with her talking 'bout the Blackhearts, and she is like a 12 year old, just fucking endearing sweet, polite but jumps on that stage and shes a beast. HUGE credit to Kenny Laguna (Manager) for putting her back on the charts with I love R&R and this is RAW in your face R&R , just like The Ramones . This either makes you want to smash a wall or take an or make you act like your grandma and get a Valium. I LOVE this girl!
These ladies broke ground for all female rockers.
Joan is a Legend!!!

I loved Suzi...good catch!!!

@@jessetombstone7773 great song please out The Runaways - Waitin`for the Night Album Review on my channel
Heart! Fleetwood Mac!
Incorrect. Suzie Quatro broke that ground.
Обожаю эту группу! Помню когда в 82 году я был в Москве и у спекулянтов купил винил концертного альбома "Made in Japan" как помню за 25 рублей ( большие деньги по тем временам), счастья моего небыло предела когда я приехал домой и врубил этот винил на полную мощность, соседи обалдели, долбили в дверь, стучали по батареям, а мне было похер, я слушал и балдел😎🤘🤘🤘 The Runaways это музыка на все времена.
Anybody that loves the Runaways should check out the Warning, three young talented sisters.
Love how this song has epic guitar solos that are awesome!!!
The bass player, Vicky Blue, later had a cameo in "Spinal Tap" as Derek Small's "girlfriend" who "just rode her first mustache". She also directed a documentary of the Runaways.
I thought it was just me WOW! Now I'm gonna watch some tap
They were still teenagers when they performed here. Incredible
People didn’t realize when Lita Ford came out with her solo stuff that she was an amazing guitar player
That is Lita Ford singing with Joan. Cherie is not in this video because she had already quit by the time this LP came out!
I noticed that too.
+Kay Dailey wow I feel like a dumbass for not reading these comments before posting my own "Where's Cherie? / That's not Cherie sharing vocals w/ Joan" comments
Is this an original song by they or is it a cover?
How long did they continue after Cherie left??
Wasted is a original song, I think. After Jackie and Cherie's departure, they continue 2 years more, an then, they follow their own ways.
We need more tough great female rockers like this these days
Hell yeah.
Totally agree with that 💯
there's plenty if you look, mostly punk but heart, girlschool (metal), l7, lunachicks, devotchkas....list could go on quite a bit if i thought about it more. and while we're on the subject, we need more great rockers of both sexes, too much pop and rap these days. the record companies don't pay much attention to rock anymore, but bands go right onto youtube, look and find.
@@Dave1111221 il. Have a look at those bands... Thank you x
You just need to dig a little deeper, as there are a plethora of them
0:59 That's not Cherie Currie (who in her day only did vocals), that's Lita Ford
Rip Sandy 🙏🏻🤟🙏🏻🤟💪☮️
Runaways are so underrated! Gotta love rocker chicks!
OMG, Lita has always been smokin hot!!!
Joan Jett and the Runaways were awesome in this performance. Thanks. I remember seeing her a few years back attending a Tigers game on TV and getting interviewed by person(s) from the Tigers broadcasting network. She still looked great.
Woah.... these girls rock back then and still rock today!!! pure badassery
I thought this video was recorded in a couple of years ago. Great quality!
Right
too bad cherie currie couldnt be in the hd video that would of been badass
They repeat a lot of the old footage in compilation shows on the BBC four channel in case you didn't know. Look out for old stuff on hows like Guitar heros at the BBC. They made a few of them. Also some of the old Top of the pops repeats on the same channel. They manage to save a lot of whistle test footage. The BBC wiped a lot of old stuff. They didnt realise at the time vcr's would take off in the 80's.
Jane C. Me, too! Ikr!
Ano em que nasci. Muito bom esse som de guitarras ligadas direto nos amps.
Lita and Joan on stage together. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!
Joan Jett is a female rock legend! I've always loved Joan!
I just can't imagine a hotter image than seeing these girls rock! Lita Ford is a goddess of rock guitar.
was blown away how good this is.incredible band.
Great performance! Thanks for uploading.
1977 THE YEAR I JUMPED ON A GREYHOUND BUS, AND RAN AWAY TO HOLLYWOOD FROM MY FOSTER HOME IN SAN DIEGO. HOLLYWOOD STONERS FOR LIFE !!!
RIP Sandy West
Keith Finsley RIP :(
The internet needs some more footage of Joan and Lita together. Hotter than a firecracker on the fourth of July 🔥
Lita and Joan went on to have good careers in music. This was just a stepping stone into their future endeavors.
Gracias por compartir. Recordando a Joan Jett en su venida a mi pais. Saludos desde Venezuela.
This is what happens when you sit up all night listening to Michael Schenker. And then pinch the riff from Shoot Shoot by UFO. Dear god.....
Oh young Lita, so great.
When this came out I was barely 5. Now I'm much older and this is still going is a real enjoyment.
Brilliant. Bought it as soon as I saw this. School Days on the other side. Still have it
I love The Runaways. I like Cherie's vocals, but honestly, I thought Joan should've been the lead singer the whole time this band was around. Joan rocked this song!
Yeah but a blonde in lingerie probably sold more tickets at first.
@@AnnaLVajda Joan sold more records to me, that's for sure
I had the hots for Joan Jett when I was a teenager back I the late 70s early 80s.
Lita cannot be beat .....she is so awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally, a song with just the right amount of cowbell...
They had a great sound, talented ladies.
How can anyone not like this? What's wrong with them? What happened?
Awesome, underrated band. Love them forever.
Didn t get any air play back then.
That’s NOT Cherie Currie singing with Joan, it’s Lita Ford. Just wanna make sure anyone watching knows this. Cool video, thanks!
Attitude and swagger for days! Pure rock n roll!
lita ford was so hot back in the day. great guitar player, too.
I think she's still fairly hot, especially for a 61 year old.
Yes she was
Aww this brings back memories! Fab footage of the Runaways
女性リードギタリストリタフォードの艶髪金髪ロングHairふりみだしギターアクションは最高でしたネ!
Joan went on to be the greatest cover artist ever
This is some seriously bad ass rock for 1977. It's too bad they didn't last much longer after this.
It's easy to make a badass rock song when you're just copying a badass rock song from 2 years earlier
77 , what a year!!!
AboutTime shoot shoot? 🛸
@@KingCrofty I just mentioned that in my comment I posted . This is a exact copy of Shoot Shoot from UFO
@@crisrose521 Most of her hits were pro songwriters or covers
Thanks for sharing
Saw them at a tiny club in Denver about the time this clip was recorded. Great show from 15 feet away from the stage
Damn they are so good!
Joan did a great job taking over lead vocals. Great band
I saw the Runaways at the Lyceum Ballroom in 78 and Hammersmith Odeon in 79 and they were Fuckin Brilliant !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pussy!
Your a fortunate dude to have seen the Runaways there and Mott the Hoople recorded one great album there ! Im envious !
I saw this lineup of the Runaways at The Capitol Theater in Passaic on the same "New Wave in New Jersey" bill with The Ramones and the post-Robert Gordon Tuff Darts. No more Cherie Currie on vocals and bassist Vicky Blue had replaced Jackie Fox who left to attend law school! They were all great and Joey Ramone performed like a trooper with a burnt face after a vaporizer he was using exploded and he was taken to a hospital emergency room. That night he was one pink punk!
Lita Ford and Joan Jett....dang take me back in time please
