Review title: The Artlessness of Noise Product review: It's odd. No matter how bad some albums are - even if the artist envisioned them as such - there are people out there who will champion them as works of genius. This is better as a concept. Instead of putting out an album of rock songs, folk songs, acoustic songs, poetry readings, whatever - Lou gives us 60 minutes of electronic noise. Funny, unless you sit through the thing. The idea is good, but being there to experience it is not. Some might think it's clever to subject their friends to this next time their friends come over, but anyone who would do so probably has no friends. Enjoy the idea, skip the album - buy something by the Shaggs if unlistenable music is your thing.

Review title: An underrated gem from Joan Jett Product review: This doesn't get as much attention as some other Jett records, but it was one of her very best, right up there with "Bad Reputation". Not only does it contain the signature song "I Hate Myself for Loving You", but there are a few others that are almost as good, like "You Want In, I Want Out" and the rather explicit "I Still Dream About You". She also does a nice job with two covers, Chuk Berry's "Tulane" and Iggy Pop's "I Wanna Be your Dog". There isn't a lame or weak track on this whole record, just the straight-up, hard-driving rock that makes Jett a compelling performer. You won't sit still for long listening to this one, and the production is excellent, something not always true of Jett's recordings. If you're a fan of real rock and roll, get this record!
