40+ years later and they're still the only all female band to play their own instruments and write their own songs to have a #1 album.

Yes, but The Runaways never had a number 1 album. That’s the difference.

Yeah. They should have had one for “Queens of Noise” IMO, but I guess that wasn’t meant to be.

Indeed. They are a great band.

Another fun fact: they returned the towels they used for the cover of their first album to Macys. Someone out there might have bought them and had them in bathroom without knowing
