Default Janis Joplin

Was watching some Hendrix videos on YouTube and this was in the suggestions along the right-hand side.


I can honestly say I had goosebumps all over! I've heard of Janis alot throughout my life but never tok the time to check out her material, what a waste! I've not been 'moved' so much by a performance in a long, long time.

I've already downloaded her Greatest Hits and read about her life story all in an hour of first "discovering her".

Any other Joplin fans?

That sounded like a baroque fugue at the beginning.

Amazing rendition by the way.

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 .....
