Comment:

Although you'd never guess it from Belinda Carlisle's throwback cover-girl looks or from the bright power pop of tracks like "Head Over Heels" and "Our Lips Are Sealed," the Go-Go's arose from the late-'70s L.A. punk scene, before becoming America's all-girl new wave darlings. Not that they didn't continue to explore the wilder side of rock 'n' roll — in fact, the band's collective appetite for a party has become the stuff of legend — but their independent punk spirit was most evident in their admirable (and ultimately successful) determination to keep control of their material from the hands of male managers and producers. Two thousand-ten was to be the year of the band's farewell tour until Jane Wiedlin injured her knee in a hiking accident, and here we look back over the proto-riot grrrls' best group cuts and stunning solo/side-project output.
