I got tears when y'all started talking about Janis at the festival because just watching the video is heart stopping. I'm 38 but I felt as if I were there. To me, I loved that we could mainly only see Janis' feet as the music ran through her soul and the look on momma Cass' face when all she could say was wow! It's my favorite footage tbh. Thanks for sharing this video and the life of Janis. I hope she can now see just how phenomenal and beautiful she always was and will be. 💞
Janis will always be the most authentic, heartfelt female vocalist ever! You put words and soul into what you sang and helped me to understand that being true to one's self is the only way to live..
Hearing from the siblings was so sad. We always see these celebrities that died but we rarely get to see how devastating it is on the family. And obviously her parents loved her but they didn't seem to have a really close relationship and it has to be absolutely crushing not only to lose a child but to lose a child that you probably didn't tell you were proud of them enough, or that you loved them enough. Just completely heartbreaking. Also Kris Kristofferson has a son who was trying to be a professional wrestler. He was wrestling at a show I was going to go and wrestle on and i ended up not being able to go and Kris came to see his son. They said came and hung out for a couple hours and was really chill. I would LOVE to have asked him about Janis. I wouldnt just run up and ask obviously. Id gauge the situation and decide if I can RESPECTFULLY ask or not, but ill likely never get the chance. She was dead over 20 years before I was even born Im 29 now in 2020 and id give anything to just be able to talk with someone who had been close to her. And the one thing I REALLY wanted to see, was Dick Cavitt talking about her and that was probably my favorite thing to see. They def def def had something haha. Hes adorable. I was born at the wrong time haha.
I feel for Janis. I came from a small town and was bullied for it. It's the same story where these Jocks bully kids who are different generation after generation and obviously nothing gets done about it. These bullies get away with it and the victims suffer through their lives. Jimmy Johnson admitted to it and seemed proud of what he did to her. Laws need to be passed where if you are caught bullying a student, you are off the sports teams for good. I too had problems later in life and I turned to drugs and alcohol for comfort. I almost died as well. I am a musician and an artist so I can relate to Janis. She was a very beautiful woman and very talented. I wish she would have gotten help and counseling. I hope the people who hurt her paid for that. It's funny how the southern folks in these small towns claim to be Christians. They need to reevaluate that. I feel bad for them when they stand before God on their day of judgment. Shame on them.
Gutless godless liberals have illustrated your point that malice w vituperative language is not indigenous to believers as much as unbelievers. Your sweeping generalization is baseless and not cited by any source, sport?
it was nice to get an insight into Janis's life because all you ever heard was about the rise and fall of a singer; not the person. Was she the best singer ever, that's depends on personal taste, but what soul and feeling she put into those songs!
i was only 4 years old when we lost janis but growing up listenjng to her music never has an artist awed me so! she and her music has touched my soul and theres very few artists who have done that. to me she is and always will be the first lady of rock and a pioneering trailblazer who broke the glass ceiling.

WoW that was really something. These four people especially her sister and brother brought to life this simple woman/super star Janis Joplin. I remember how maligned she was by many of the residents of Port Arthur and how Janis lost no opportunities to let the world know how abused and humiliated those experiences left her. She was a real path blazer and a legend. Now I need to find the documentary and watch it.
The host guy and the woman who made the film talk a lot, Janis's brother and sister barely get a word in. Also, some of the stories told by the two in front of her siblings are inappropriate.
Another brunch of people capitalizing on a dead person. So sad get a real life. These people talking don't even know how people lived back then and the music. As he said I never met Janis 😂
Loved this. I wanted to ask Laura and Michael what was the reaction in the Joplin House when Janis’ fame skyrocketed world wide after Monterrey and did they have an accurate idea of the immensity of her fame and impact on people s lives before her Death.
The club that Jeff was referencing The Matrix , was located at 3138 Fillmore Street . The space is now called White Rabbit . In homage to Grace Slick and the Jefferson Airplane . The documentary did not really go into much about the psychological struggle Janis was having with her bisexuality. There is so much emphasis regarding her relationship with David Niehaus... almost making it a Romeo and Juliet type of situation. One of the reasons David left , besides Janis's heroin use , was learning of her sexual and emotional relationship with Peggy Caserta. Within months of David's departure , Janis was proclaiming her love for Seth Morgan and beginning the formalities to marry him. Janis wanted Seth and Peggy both sexually. Clearly a classic heterosexual marriage would have never worked for her.
Fico muito feliz em saber que Janis Joplin esteve no Brasil, no carnaval e justamente na cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Se pudesse pedir algo ao prefeito do Rio, pediria uma estátua de Janis para celebrar essa cantora fantástica que muito orgulha a todos brasileiros que compartilham de sua música maravilhosa.
seria incrível termos algo que marcasse sua passagem por aqui, já que ela adorou nosso RJ! Uma pessoa muito especial que merece nossa lembrança e homenagem..❤
I think I kinda knew how Janis felt. In no way am I a talent or creator, but I can tell you that I’m happy when I’m around people but very lonely when I’m not around people. I can imagine the rush she felt while on stage, but when it was over + she went back to her hotel, she was alone - where I think she became extremely lonely + depressed - and it took over her whole soul because she wanted to be loved more than anything in her world. Why did she wind up alone at night after her performance? I just don’t understand that. I would’ve been a pain in her ass because I never would have left her side - especially knowing how she hated to be lonely + scared. Where were all her friends then??
I couldn’t imagine a world where the Beatles played Monterey? I can’t believe they even agreed at one point? Don’t know how I’ve never heard this. Janis Joplin rip you were badass sexy rock chick with a beautiful soul and you didn’t need to be loved by anyone and you left to early to get to no that maybe in another life you can call me daddy!!
Nothing against the video, but why the hell is the host speaking most of the time. We have read all these stories about Janis, we saw the documentary, we saw videos online. Just give space to the people who lived with her and have something interesting and NEW to say, for god sake.
Janice didn't like LSD or hallucinogenics she liked to be in control of herself and that was not her drug of choice and she also didn't smoke marijuana. 1:07:21
Janis Joplin blew the top off the Monterey fest Columbia records was waiting for Janice at the steps of the stage to make a deal with her, Janice in the big brother and holding company famous at this time Janice was not a tortured soul she had the best time in her life
Janice didn't worry about rock and roll being a man's position she just wanted to do it and she had nothing to prove to any man she was her own self and she did what she wanted to do
monterey--janis and band were low on money and janis was free of the needle. jimi was a star in uk already. this is where JJ met al grossman. but al separated her from her band.
Janis brother is getting it wrong? It’s stories about Janis not you! He tells us how he got into music when he gets asked his did Janis introduce you to music!
So sad that her family felt trepidation when she was coming home all dressed up like a rockstar especially when by her letters all she cared about was there approval and wanting to do them proud. You can blame the times for the way her parents were but surely there was never a time when you were ashamed of your daughter ? When she was coming home they should of had a massive welcome home party for her. It’s so obvious to look in hindsight and see how the people around her all contributed to her not caring about herself and then dying. Most addiction stories the addicts are turning away from help but poor Janis was desperate to be helped but no one would do it and she wasn’t even horrible to anyone like sometimes happens. It’s baffling and hard to understand why they all treated her so badly? Because she wasn’t racist? Wore extravagant clothes? Sang rock n roll? I can’t work out why her family were ashamed and alienated her? Strange! Summat else going on in that family maybe?
Probably intimidated by her strength and power to be true to herself, when they weren't that uncompromising themselves. May have been threatening to them.
Indeed- her Mom's maiden name was East. I am a genealogy buff and I was so excited to have someone send me the info that show that I have a common ancestor with Janis- and my family is connected to Susan B. Anthony as well- the B stands for Brownell.
She was a narcissist and had arrested development .Teenage angst. She had a good,decent upbringing. She would fit in in today's society. (Every show,book about her just rehashes the same old mantras. )
Fitting into today's warped society is nothing to be proud of. Your lack of empathy shows how much you fit in. Hopefully extinction will bring justice.
Growing up in southern Indiana where racism was the norm , I pissed people off regularly because I would question a racists intellect , and the fact that they need to convince themselves and others that certain people are inferior , in order to feel that at least someone is lower than they are. Its insecurity. If you point out that prejudice is only fear in disguise , it really aggravates the people who practice that way of thinking, because they know its true. I played old time blues , jazz R & B all my life so I caught shit for being a supposed 'n****r lover . But it didn't bother me. It only made me realize that I was dealing with idiots and if anything it made me more confident , because I realized I was surrounded by people who weren't as enlightened as I liked to think I was. A redneck hates nothing worse than being told he is just a fearful, insecure and frankly clueless person.

Cass said - wow! That was heavy man - to Michele. She doesn’t like being called Mama Cass. Her name is Cass Elliott. I love these three women!!

The footage of Cass was Cass watching another band, not Big Brother.
I'm so glad I got to see this. I've seen all the documentaries, but it was nice to hear from her siblings, and Amy.

20 years after monterey saw monterey pop on uk tv and loved all them bands especially janis ever since and still listening at 53.

Hey man.....I'm the same way. Your frankness is great. Just put your feet on the ground and go
I'm one of the few who isn't afraid to stand up for what is right. Thank you.
@@DXPunx74 well ok brotha that's my feeling too
Bullying preps one for life. You learn early to push back.

honored to share a birthday with janice.

loved reading a new book on Janis's life. Holly George-Warren's JANIS: Her Life and Music, published by Simon and Schuster.
i was only 4 years old when we lost janis but growing up listenjng to her music never has an artist awed me so! she and her music has touched my soul and theres very few artists who have done that. to me she is and always will be the first lady of rock and a pioneering trailblazer who broke the glass ceiling.
Janis will always be the most authentic, heartfelt female vocalist ever! You put words and soul into what you sang
and helped me to understand that being true to one's self is the only way to live..
Her soul will live on forever in the hearts of millions of fans!!!

Her siblings knew what she got into. They helping her while she was alive.

great interview thank you,I hope more news on Janis
Love you pearl: miss you so w: you live on in my heart and soul each and every day.
Fué alguien muy especial, su entrega cuando cantaba era algo propio. Te hacía sentir su sentimiento. Siempre la recordare. Desde Bogotá (Colombia).
Laura has the same laugh as Janis. 🥰
I just love janis
The club that Jeff was referencing The Matrix , was located at 3138 Fillmore Street . The space is now called White Rabbit . In homage to Grace Slick and the Jefferson Airplane . The documentary did not really go into much about the psychological struggle Janis was having with her bisexuality. There is so much emphasis regarding her relationship with David Niehaus... almost making it a Romeo and Juliet type of situation. One of the reasons David left , besides Janis's heroin use , was learning of her sexual and emotional relationship with Peggy Caserta. Within months of David's departure , Janis was proclaiming her love for Seth Morgan and beginning the formalities to marry him. Janis wanted Seth and Peggy both sexually. Clearly a classic heterosexual marriage would have never worked for her.
Janis sister favors her
Fico muito feliz em saber que Janis Joplin esteve no Brasil, no carnaval e justamente na cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Se pudesse pedir algo ao prefeito do Rio, pediria uma estátua de Janis para celebrar essa cantora fantástica que muito orgulha a todos brasileiros que compartilham de sua música maravilhosa.
seria incrível termos algo que marcasse sua passagem por aqui, já que ela adorou nosso RJ! Uma pessoa muito especial que merece nossa lembrança e homenagem..❤

Honest to God! Is he so enamored of his own voice that he forgets he has Janis's siblings right there.?
I"m sure Janis's siblings love hearing about Janis having sex, yelling out Daddy..(sarcastic)
My thoughts precisely! UGH!!!!
Tana...
Laura looks just like Janis Joplin 😱
Where can I see the movie?
When was this interview . If she was still alive she would be around 77 78. They still look kind of young to be their brother and sister
The male interviewer is full of himself
Janice didn't like LSD or hallucinogenics she liked to be in control of herself and that was not her drug of choice and she also didn't smoke marijuana. 1:07:21
Janis eternal...
Janis Joplin blew the top off the Monterey fest Columbia records was waiting for Janice at the steps of the stage to make a deal with her, Janice in the big brother and holding company famous at this time Janice was not a tortured soul she had the best time in her life
What movie are they talking about??
Name of film? Missed that....thnx
Janice didn't worry about rock and roll being a man's position she just wanted to do it and she had nothing to prove to any man she was her own self and she did what she wanted to do
Janis,Hendrix,Amy W,Doors.... Uhhhhh!!!!!💝👍
monterey--janis and band were low on money and janis was free of the needle. jimi was a star in uk already. this is where JJ met al grossman. but al separated her from her band.

What is the name of the movie?
Little girl blue

No one tells us the name of the Film or Documentary????
Betsy Mordino the film is little girl blue a documentary on janis

They are talking about the documentary little girl blue.

Muy bueno sería que no sea traducido al castellano.
who attended the cremation?
The Joplins are Yankees on their mom's side. Their descendants are from Vermont. I think they are related to Susan B. Anthony somehow.
Indeed- her Mom's maiden name was East. I am a genealogy buff and I was so excited to have someone send me the info that show that I have a common ancestor with Janis- and my family is connected to Susan B. Anthony as well- the B stands for Brownell.

Who's ugly now and it's not Janis
How about her Daughter
She was a narcissist and had arrested development .Teenage angst. She had a good,decent upbringing. She would fit in in today's society. (Every show,book about her just rehashes the same old mantras. )
More likely borderline personality disorder characteristics if we are going to talk psychology.
NO SCUM MORE LIKE YOU ARE A NARCISSISTIC MORON....WHO TALKS SHIT ABOUT PEOPLE TO FEEL BETTER...
Fitting into today's warped society is nothing to be proud of. Your lack of empathy shows how much you fit in. Hopefully extinction will bring justice.
