Joan Jett’s debut album *Bad Reputation* (1981) began as a provocative challenge to a world that tried to convince Jett that “girls don’t play electric guitar,” and remains an integral part of pop culture even 45 years later.
The album features the hits “Bad Reputation,” “You Don’t Own Me,” and “Do You Wanna Touch Me (Oh Yeah),” as well as guest appearances by members of the Sex Pistols and Blondie, and reminds us that Jett’s tenacity and determination are just as instinctive and authentic today as they were back when she first told us: “A girl can do whatever she wants.” This 45th-anniversary edition of “Bad Reputation” features a brand-new album cover with a rare photo from that era.
