Started in 1979 by [a283542] and producer/songwriter [a203226], the original Blackhearts consisted of [a413932] (lead guitar), [a457402] (bass), and [a711688] (drums). Danny Furious was fired after their 1980 European tour by Laguna and replaced by [a457403] on drums. They initially played the tracks off Joan Jett's self-titled debut album, which was self-released by Jett and Laguna on their new label [l63687]. The album was later reissued as Bad Reputation after being picked up by [a288481]'s new label [l27232]. While recording the first Blackhearts album, I Love Rock & Roll, Ambel was replaced by [a1260189] on lead guitar. Around 1985, Ryan and Crystal left the band and were replaced by [a273647] on bass and [a289260] on drums. The following album, Good Music, featured songs from before and after the lineup change so all artists are credited on the release.

The band went on hiatus in the mid-90's while Jett focused on music production as well as solo and collaboration endeavors.
