Any other Joplin fans?
Yeah, love Janis .....

"Cheap Thrills" by Big Brother and the Holding Company with Janis as primary lead vocalist is an almost perfect rock album .....

Recommended follow-up is Big Mama Thornton who wrote "Ball 'n' Chain" and recorded the first version of "Hound Dog", released later by Elvis .....
