Captain Howdy

While I found Kotzen to be an arrogant ignorant prick when I met him (Bret,Bobby & Rikki were really nice guys) he did bring something cool to the band in the form of his backing vocals! It reminded me of bands like Bon Jovi & Thunder where the guitarist is as good a singer or better than the actual vocalist which adds for some fantastic backing vocals & harmonies!

Its hard to compare the Wildhearts to anyone as their music is so eclectic. Innfluences have included Motorhead,Ramones & the Pogues but thats just a small part of their sound!

Joan Jett-The hitlist is a pretty good album & was actually the first Joan Jett album I ever bought. All the covers are done really well & fit Joans voice down to the ground!
