Top Customer Reviews

They were the ultimate Jailbait band and svengali Kim Fowley knew they would be every juvenile boy's wet dream come (sic) true, that they could play and sing damned fine rock 'n' roll was just a bonus. And as each member of the band admits, Fowley's lack of patience in the studio unwittingly gave those songs a raw rock 'n' roll edge that makes them still stand up and be counted today. Their Japanese tour knocked the whole band sideways, as ever, the Japanese go ballistic over Western rock bands, even moreso if they happen to be chicks.
And so now, a quarter century later, (thankfully) Vicki Blue had the good sense to get this documentary together, and even though Joan Jett wanted nothing to do with it, (so it's just 'from the time' interview from her), the rest of the band shine in their recollections and memories of their 'boot camp' introduction into the rock scene courtesy Mr Fowley. But even he is on here saying his piece, and although it's not overburdened with Runaways music, (it's a documentary, not a music DVD), so there's just enough to give prospective fans a good taster, and those who know and have Runaways albums the spark to dig them out and play 'em again.
Documentary's like this are especially poignant when one of the member's of the band have since passed on, the Runaways case in point being drummer, Sandy West, so it's great she had the chance to have her say.
Lita Ford and Joan Jett are the only two members to still have something resembling a career still surrounding them, amd both have been very successful; with Joan Jett currently enjoying the limelight as she'll be touring the UK with Alice Cooper and Motorhead in November 2007.

I have been a fan of the runaways for about 30ish years , and so this dvd was a must.
I was disappointed in the fact that there was no real concert footage and also the fact that one of the key members namely Joan jett refused to participate in it.
The one good thing is that it was recorded before we prematurely lost Sandy west [ the drummer] so for that it is worth getting. It is only for real fans of the runaways.
