Waitin’ For The Night

Runaways, “Waitin’ For The Night” (Cherry Red, 2003; original release 1977)
With Cherie and Jackie gone, their third and last studio set for Mercury finds them drifting simultaneously towards metal (Lita) and punk (Joan). Barely out of high school, they were, however, already skilled pros and the two divergent styles are here blended into a tense, exciting whole that is as rude and raw as the early Ramones and as commandingly dynamic as early Van Halen (essentially their two ’77 peer groups).
