Decades later, Joan Jett's fans are loving the deep cuts.
On Tuesday, the iconic rocker, 66, took to Instagram to share a video of her singing "Coney Island Whitefish" in Las Vegas, noting that the song's album — aptly named 'Album' — was released on this day in 1983.
The video was presumably taken from one of the June nights she played at the House of Blues in Las Vegas as part of her many concert dates this year, leading to fans to hope that they'll hear the song in an upcoming show.
