| | Joan Jett Up Your Alley CD Joan Jett Discography of CDs
Joan Jett's surprise hit cover of the Bruce Springsteen composition, "Light of Day" (the title track from her motion picture acting debut of the same name), had reinvigorated her music career in 1987. And Jett cashed in on the newly rekindled attention, issuing 1988's UP YOUR ALLEY, her first major hit album since the early '80s.
Although Jett had become notorious for the amount of cover songs she included on her albums (they usually far outnumbered her original compositions), Jett scored a big hit co-written with Desmond Child, "I Hate Myself For Loving You." Another Child/Jett original, "Little Liar," proved to be another highlight, as well as covers of Chuck Berry ("Tulane") and the Stooges' "I Wanna Be Your Dog." Somewhat more pop-oriented than her previous punkier releases, UP YOUR ALLEY was a successful ending to the '80s for Joan Jett.
Producers include: Kenny Laguna, Desmond Child, R. Browde.
Personnel: Joan Jett (guitar); Chuck Kentis, Ronnie Lawson, Desmond Child, Kenny Laguna, Mick Taylor , Paul O'Neill, Arno Hecht, Hollywood Paul Litteral, Frank Carillo.

taste this! is a Flint, MI band that infuses its rock-pop energy with a mix of soul, funk, and hip-hop. Their signature "rock 'n' soul" sound has earned them comparisons to Maroon 5, N.E.R.D., Kenna, 311, Sublime, Red Hot Chili Peppers and the Black Eyed Peas. Blending innovative rock guitars and powerful soul vocals with danceable drum beats and old-school scratches and samples, taste this! creates a unique sound.Before the phrase "taste this!" ever graced a fan's t-shirt, guitarist Paul Woolcock and drummer Tim Jagielo were just two friends trying to put together a rock band in their Davison garage. The two placed ads around local college campuses to find a vocalist and bassist. With a bassist selected, they auditioned two singers on the same day, deciding to pick one and passing on the other, Tunde Olaniran. A month later, after their initial singer left the band for personal reasons, Tunde called back and joined them. With a small register of songs, they played together in Tim's basement, teaching Tunde the lyrics the previous singer had written. It wasn't until they gave Tunde the freedom to re-write some of the lyrics that the music began to take on a different sound. After the abrupt departure of their bassist, new music began to flow out of the trio. Within weeks, they had written over half of the songs featured on their 2004 self-titled release. In the studio, after a long process of searching for the right name, they agreed to call the band taste this! While not Grammy material, this first recording displayed enough originality and raw talent to make Tim, Paul, and Tunde think seriously about performing live. Finding a bass player proved to be difficult; they seemed to have incredibly bad luck keeping a bassist longer than one rehearsal. In the meantime, they met up with Jimi Hendricks (yes, real name), who added ...
