• "Fantasy" was also recorded for this album but was instead featured as the non-LP b-side to the "Good Music" single. It also appeared on Jett's odds-and-sods album, Flashback.

The song "This Means War" also appeared on the concurrently released soundtrack to Joan Jett's debut movie Light of Day. The two versions are identical.

A video was shot for the shortened single-mix of "Good Music", following Joan Jett around New York City. Jett was seen in her limo--throwing 'bad music' tapes out the window--as well as playing guitar in her loft and even washing her hair in the shower. It climaxed with an in-concert appearance with her band at CBGB, however the video was rarely played on MTV.
