Good Music for Young People

The original soundtrack to the 2018 documentary "Bad Reputation" features an eclectic mix of classic songs and modern covers. The album includes the iconic tracks from the movie, all performed by the legendary Joan Jett and her bands, The Blackhearts and The Runaways. Additionally, the soundtrack includes Bikini Kill's "Rebel Girl" (produced by Jett), Fea's "Feminazi," and a cover of The Replacements' "Androgynous" performed by Jett, Miley Cyrus, and Laura Jane Grace.

The release of this greatest hits collection coincides with the premiere of the documentary of the same name. Directed by the prolific music video director Kevin Kerslake, "Bad Reputation" chronicles Joan Jett's remarkable journey through the annals of rock history. The film delves into the founding of Jett's iconic all-female band, The Runaways, during the vibrant punk scene of the 1970s, as well as her evolution as a solo artist and the launch of her own record label, Blackheart Records.

After premiering at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, "Bad Reputation" will finally be available to the wider public on September 28, 2018, across various platforms, including theaters, on-demand, iTunes, and Amazon. The soundtrack, which was released on the same date, serves as a companion piece to the documentary, providing a musical timeline of Jett's trailblazing career and her enduring influence on the rock and punk genres.

As a pioneering figure in the male-dominated world of rock, Joan Jett's story is one of resilience, determination, and the unwavering pursuit of her passion. The "Bad Reputation" documentary and its accompanying soundtrack pay homage to Jett's legacy, showcasing her pivotal role in shaping the landscape of rock music and her enduring impact on generations of musicians and fans alike.
