Joan Jett was enamored by a tune that was a musical answer to the Rolling Stones’ seminal hit “It’s Only Rock’n’Roll (But I Like It)”. The song was written and originally performed by members of the British band The Arrows in 1975. Jett performed the song numerous times live in concert before it became the centerpiece of her 1981 album “I Love Rock ‘N’ Roll”, shooting to number one for 7 weeks in the US, and likewise around the world.
