Every so often, I play "Hollywood" for my 19-y-o, and I tell him to listen the drumming of the 16-year-old girl.

And every time (except the first), he's like, "Dad, you play this so many times, and you always say the same thing!"

Yup.

The Runaways, "Queens of Noise" (1977, live in Tokyo)

17-y-o Sandy West (1959~2006) on drums at the time of the concert, but 16 when recording the track in the studio.

Joan Jett has already been picked as a rock 'n' roll diva, but I'd like to add one more track from her 18-year-old voice –

The Runaways, "Queens of Noise" (live June 1977)

Heavier than the studio release!

2 juni 1955
Mede-oprichtster van de legendarische all-female rockband , maar ze stopt al in 1975 met deze band mede door toedoen sexueel ongepast gedrag van manager , maar neemt wel mee de demo en later album "Born To Be Bad" op. Ondertussen duikt ze op in verschillende andere bands, ze wordt in het rock circuit geroemd voor haar manier van spelen.
Tot ze in 1983 Annette Zilinskas vervangt als bassiste bij tot 2004.
