1981 - 40 Years Ago

1981 Joan Jett and the Blackhearts released their second album I Love Rock 'n Roll. The album actually had a lot of covers, including the title track. The song originally done by Arrows in 1975 and was a staple of the stage shows before being recorded. It of course went #1 and was the #3 song for the year 1982. (#1 Mainstream Rock and #31 Dance Club) The video was originally in color, but it was converted to black and white because Jett hated the look of her red leather jumpsuit in color.

Tommy James' song "Crimson and Clover" was the second single, making #7 and #6 Mainstream Rock.

Next single "Do You Wanna Touch Me" was on the previous album, and with all the success was re-released and made #20.
