Free Music Notes for FetishFree Music Review: Nice Collection needs more new songs Hit: 3 Stars
I already have this CD with 1 less songs from the Joan Jett Fan Club. This re-release adds "Black Leather" (live). While "Fetish" & "Baby Blue" (not the Badfinger song) are fine new tracks, Joan needs to get an full album of totally new material out. She has an album "in the can". All the fans know this. She just needs to find a distributer who will promote and distribute her. She has a new look and an even harder edge, but is still a great songwriter and performer. She has a very strong fan base but radio seems to like more feminine women with acoustic guitars. Joan was a pioneer for the female rocker. Fetish is a nice collection of tracks dealing with the subject of sex. She has never avoided this subject before and doesn't here. This collection ROCKS. But it could have benefited from the songs "Just Lust" and "Torture" also. why leave those off? Only "Wooly Bully" bores me. It's not needed. I can't wait to hear Black Leather (Live).
Free Music Review: Jett releases another cd of old stuff Hit: 3 Stars
The last few cds from Joan have been nothing more than compilations of previous hits with perhaps a new song or two. Fetish is no different. The difference with Fetish is that Joan chose a few of the more obscure earlier works perhaps trying to pass them off to a younger generation as new. Jett fans of old may be disappointed with Fetish's tired old tracks and lack luster new ones. As a long time Jett fan I certainly am. Jett has a voice and style meant for anthem tunes. Come on Joan! You must have a few more original songs left in you.
Free Music Review: Just a little side note... Hit: 3 Stars
Joan Jett hasn't released too much new material in the nineties, but many fans may not be aware that she did front a group the group Evil Stig in 1995, and they put out a really nice record (in memorial to the Gits former frontwoman Mia Zapata). Check it out. Fetish is okay, but kind of a disappointment. We await something new from this legend - see her live and it's obviously she's still got it!
Free Music Review: Joan rocks like nobodies business Hit: 3 Stars
This is a very good CD. I saw Joan & co. last year in Tuzla, where they played a lot of the songs ont his CD. (I agree with the earlier review, too, that WANNA BE YOUR DOG should be here!) Joan rocks like no one else. Some long time Blackheart fans appear to have been disappointed based on above reviews, but I hadn't heard her for a while, and this was enough to bring me back.
Free Music Review: yet another Jett-compilation. Hit: 3 Stars
While some songs on here are great, the overall feel is "been here before." Instead of another compilation that doesn't live up to expectation, how about a whole new album? the title song "Fetish" is good, but not good enough to carry a whole album.
