3.0 out of 5 stars Not the Worst, February 13, 2000

By	Michael Weber "fairportfan" (Atlanta) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is not JJ's weakest album -- that would be "The Hit List" (which is still worth giving a listen, actually) -- but it's not that close to her best, either.

That said, getting backing from the Beach Boys on "Fun Fun Fun" was a stroke of genius, another Jett version of "Roadrunner" is always welcome, "This Means War" isn't bad...

And the title cut is Incredible> If "Good Music" was theonly listenable cut among a mass of repulsive garbage, this CD would still rate at least two stars.

Joan and the Blackhearts know the history of rock'n'roll, and they demonstrate that fact here, with a quick musical tour of the genre that reaches a conclusion that i reached some time ago -- "I could be all right if I could hear a loud guitar all night!"

Long Live Good Music!

Long Live Joan Jett!

4.0 out of 5 stars a definite Joan Jett buy, September 7, 2004

By	M. J. Sprout "Designer and Artist" (Detroit, MI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

this album may be even better than Up Your Alley ... and that's saying a lot. The songs that aren't absolutely great (most of them) are better than her usual not-great songs ...

4.0 out of 5 stars The Clean, Soft side of Joan..., February 21, 1999

By A Customer

This is still one of the MOST listened to Jett albums in my collection. All time greats; If Ya Want My Love, Just Lust, and the title track. You actually hear Joan and the boys harmonize on this Album! Good Music deserved so much commercial success...Beach Boy fans can catch Mike Love on this superb album, Darlene Love and rapper Scorpio. The only let down on the entire album is that it is kept so "clean". I always got a feeling that something is being held back on this album, like....angst,aggression maybe? If you ever got to see Joan perform Just Lust live in concert, then you would have seen the way it was supposed to have been done! I blame this on Columbia records mainly. You notice a change on Jett recordings when they go from Colubia to Warners. This Album is exaclty what is says it is...simply GOOD MUSIC! I love it! Needs to be in any true rock n' roll fans collection!
