Other songs on the album:
Don't Go Away
Well, I must say that I prefer Cherie's singing, but this
is a terrific album. It also has my second favorite Runaways
cover. It shows the girls behind barbed wire (I suppose it is
a reference to their jailbait/ rebel image.
Considering that this is their first album without Cherie
and Jackie, they do a very good job of meshing, I just wish
that Sandy and Lita had done more lead vocals. I mean Lita
wrote two songs on the album, why couldn't she sing them?
