Despite her short life, today Janis Joplin remains one of the most widely-known and widely respected rock singers of all-time. More than 31 million copies of her albums have been sold worldwide. Most of those sold after her death and as compilations. Perhaps more than any other singer in history, she is the epitome of the free-spirited hippie who represented her era so darn well. That said, she never really fit into any category. Her style and her voice were incredibly unique and authentic. Her fans have always easily connected with her, first and foremost, because she was…real…she was them. She was a powerful voice for the underdogs…the freaks….the outcasts…and I’d say nearly all of us can relate to that. Even today, Janis Joplin remains a breath of fresh air.

What is your favorite Janis Joplin song? Also, what did I leave out that I should have put in this video?
cry baby. 100 percent!
@@ClockworkMusics A darn good one. I forgot to say mine! It's "Me and Bobby McGee"
@@mattbeatgoesonme too 😊
awesome @@mattbeatgoeson
I don't know anything about him
Janis Joplin is a musical figure I never really knew much about, but thanks for getting me more educated on her!
It's why I'm here!
Man I sure was hoping for 1 last video this summer. Thank you for making that happen.
Hope you enjoyed it!
The most iconic unforgettable voice in music history.
I really can't explain why, but every time i hear her voice scream out "take another little piece of my heart now, baby," tears start uncontrollably streaming down my face. She was truly one of a kind and has never been replicated.
Please please please do a video on Rush!!
Best singer ever I first discovered her singing Ball n Chain on the Monterey Pop Festival blu ray set.
That's how MANY discovered her. :)
That's the best singer ever? I feel sorry for you. Take meds.
Janis and Tom Jones' live perfomance of "raise your hand" is insanely fun and both of their voices are amazing. I just love it
Mr. Beat, could you please make a video about Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, or Little Richard? They were key performers and Rock or Rocknroll would be nothing without them. Thanks!
Janis Joplin is one of my mom's favorite singers.
Well dang, show your mom this video then. :)
Janis is such an interesting person. I would encourage anyone who has not seen her in the video for Monterey Pop doing ball and chain to do so now. And then go and find Kozmic blues. Among others. Janis is a force and one of a kind. Amazing.
She was drinking buddies with Jimmy Page when he was in town and they were great friends.
I read about this as a teenager who was a total Zep head in the mid 70s
I do remember the Cheap Thrills album cover. My brother and I were rock fans since I was in first grade with the beatles. And mom let us be so. As a kid of 10 with my brother we would look at album covers in the music stores and Cheap Thrills always stood out.
your videos are always amazing and well made i would love if you do one on jimi hendrix and frank zappa and the doors
Thanks for the kind words and great suggestions!
@@mattbeatgoeson ❤️
She was born the same year as my mom..who recently turned 80..yay mom...wish Janis could of stayed with us a little longer..God Bless to all of those in the Struggle. ✌️
matt, i'm from brazil, and I love your videos! you forgot to mention joplin's friendship with my favorite cartoonist, robert crumb - even the author of the cheap thrills album cover :)
The fact that Jimmy Johnson and Janis Joplin went to high school together blows my mind.
The first recognized member of the 27 club was actually Robert Johnson, a blues guitarist who was arguably the most influential guitarist of all time. Influencing Hendrix, Clapton, Muddy Waters, BB King, and many more. You should do a video on him!!
I've been watching your history channel for quite a while but I'm just discovering your music channel. Very well done, and I'm a Janis fan, but a lot of the details I didn't know about. I'm so excited for this!
I was hoping for a brief history of the rolling stones but this is a really good video good job
A great singer that left us way too soon.
My next video suggestion
after Michael:
The Temptations!
🕺🏾🕺🏾🕺🏾🕺🏾🕺🏾
Nicee
@@mattbeatgoesoncan you do
Nickleback… or imagine dragons or the clash or any 4 band members you think of
Oh yes been waiting for Janis for ages, this is great! Great video :D
Love her music but didn’t know much abt her life, banger video dude thumbs up
Such an incredible artist. Thanks for teaching me more about her!
I was waiting for this video🎉
I didn't knew Janis Joplin before but after watching your video, I really like her, Thank you for such a great content. And a small request can you make a video about Pearl Jam ? Have a beautiful day❤️
Thank you Mr Beat for all these wonderful music documents - they are fun and stuff 👍🎈🛀
everyones happy when the beat goes on uploads a new video on music. :).
Bob Dylan? Widely regarded as one of the greatest songwriters of all time and the only singer/songwriter to have received a Nobel Prize.
I thought he was a terrible song writer. Also. A Nobel prize means you are popular with the media. Look at the winners.
@@ratdad48have u ever listened to him or you just don’t like his voice
@@standrew131 Guess I'm just not into his folk that much. His voice to me doesn't help his efforts. Liked his words and message with Don't think twice, Hurricane is good. I can do without Highlands. Maybe reaching a bit by saying the word terrible. Can't deny his greatness.
@@ratdad48he's definitely not a terrible writer
@@Bob-zs8lb Ok 👍
Truly lived the sex drugs and rock n' roll lifestyle. Great musician
Great short doc Matt - well written and produced - lots of photos I've never seen. and I've been a Joplin fan since 1969 - but although
Albert Grossman managed Janis Joplin and Bob Dylan - Jimi Hendrix was managed by Michael Jeffrey and Chas Chandler and kudos to you for reading Myra Friedman's book on Janis - my favorite of the many books Janis has inspired
I need a 3 hour long bob dylan video mr. beat!!
Will you ever make a brief history of The Rolling Stones?
Good video. Janis Joplin is a 60s artist I have enjoyed listening to but never knew all that much about before. I liked previous comments suggesting Bob Dylan and Chuck Berry, and I might add the Rolling Stones and The Who to that list.
If you want to learn more about Janis Joplin, I highly recommend the book 'Buried Alive: The Biography of Janis Joplin' - it was written by someone familiar with Joplin herself (having worked on Albert's staff) and features a lot of interesting details and personal conversations - it's also a period piece from 1973, and is pretty readable for a biography.
ok
My favorite performance is “Ball and Chain”…Recorded live at the Fillmore….From the “Cheap Thrills” Album….
Great video ! Could you do one about the Runaways ? It would be the occasion to continue talking about women rocking !
Never been within a minute of posting before!
Thanks for being here early!
Rest In Peace Janis Joplin, She's a Lengend.
lets gooo i love these videos now i have another one to watch
Well I appreciate you watching. :)
My favorite Joplin Tune is "Summertime"
Knew her name, and nothing else, so this was a really interesting video. Thanks Mr Beat!
This was a great video! I have to say, it would be great if you covered The Doors, or even some British Invasion bands like The Kinks or The Zombies
I heard ball and chain before i knew her story and wondered why it made me so emotional. Once i learned of her life, i understood.
Great job. As far as other bands/singers you should do, I don’t know what kind of musical tastes you have. Some ideas: The Who, Fleetwood Mac (starting with the Peter Green era), The Police, John Coltrane or Miles Davis (if you like jazz), Cream…….so many bands, so little time!
Can you do an episode on Elvis Presley one day? The King of Rock and Roll's history is important to cover
NICE!! New episode!!!
Heck yeah
Hi sir
Love the content. Extremely well put together.
Could there be an episode on the short lived, bit meteoric rise of the band WHAM!
Have a great day
Thanks for the kind words and suggestion!
My fellow Port Arthur girl, her car is in the Gulf Coast Museum of SE Texas, in our home town.
It's on my bucket list to see that car!
Thank you for this! I am of course familiar with Janis, but only for her name and some certain songs. It's always interesting to hear the story behind the artist.
One band that seems to have been influential for many artists, but seems to be in the shadow of so many other bands is Sparks. Their history is really cool, maybe one for you to dig in to. And to make things even better, they're still active recordin new material and touring the world 😀
i think you should cover oasis, stone roses, buddy holly and crickets, the doors and the rolling stones
Port Arthur was my party town. Love Janis!!! My favorite is Mercedes Benz ❤❤
Watching this while drinking Southern Comfort. Random, but good choice. 😂
Ball and Chain at Monterey is one of the greatest live performances ever!!!! Of course this is from my very unprofessional opinion.
Love this video I didn’t know a lot of this info I love her a lot amazing rock singer
Another great video!! Could you by chance do a rolling stone video, there are other ‘history of the stones’ videos out there, but I can’t be bothered to sit down and watch a 40 minute documentary 😂
Or a video on the who would be nice
I never knew about this! This was a really interesting video! Would love if you made one about Metallica…
The algorithm introduced me to your channel today and now I'm hooked. Looking to see if you've covered Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention and Weird Al Yankovic which seem strangely familiar.
My Numero Uno of all time 🎉
Great videos!I have watched and enjoyed them all. Could you do: The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, The Velvet Underground, The Sex Pistols, The Stone Roses, Oasis, My Bloody Valentine and Spacemen 3 / Spiritualized please?
Can you make a vídeo about Paramore? They have a interesting history and it’s my favourite band! I enjoy your channel a lot, cheers from Portugal!
Thanks for the supportive words and great suggestion.
CAN YOU DO A BREIF HISTORY ON OASIS PLEASE it’s one of my fav bands love ur vids btw
I would love a video on The Eagles!
Well my parents would absolutely love that.
@@mattbeatgoeson Do it for them if not me lol!
I really think you should do a brief history on 'The Eagles' Best selling American band of all time
Ohhh the beat goes on, after the thrill of playing is gone
PLEASE can you do the rolling stones? their history is so complex and I feel like you would do an awesome job
Please do The Beach Boys I’ve been asking for so long 😭
Can you please do a video about The Doors
You gotta do ac/dc
I would love to
Is it weird that the only two people I can think of with the surname Joplin are both musical figures born in East Texas? And they aren't related?
Mr. Beat you should do a video on Miles Davis.
a classic musician!
Mr. Beat, you should definitely do a brief history of Stevie Wonder in a future video! I want to know how he became an R&B singer since he was born blind.
Mr. Beat, do you think you'll ever do a video on Steely Dan?
If I could go back in time I'd go back to any year from 1966 to 1978 just to checkout legends in concert at Winterland in SF. Sadly that place closed about 8 years before I was born.
Could you plz do a video about Deep Purple? it would be really educating and interesting
Wow The Video was About 3 Weeks Ago!.Do You History of Alternative Music From (1977-Present) Thanks for 3 week ago Video!
Make a video about Depeche Mode please.
A highly underrated band.
Can you do one on XTC? They have an interesting history.
Can you review rush next ?
Hello, could you make a brief history of the doors?
The popular song “American Pie” by Don McLean is thought to reference Janis Joplis’ death with the lines: “I met a girl who sang the blues and I asked her for some happy news. But she just smiled and turned away.”
good video. Couple very small mistakes - Grossman never managed Hendrix, and Janis & Kozmic Blues Band were not on the Madison Square Garden bill with Tina and the Stones. She was just backstage watching when she ran on to do the duet with Tina.
I think you should do a brief history on Oasis
This was a great choice for a singer.
But, I know I keep saying this again and again, please to a video on Elvis Costello, he has an interesting history.
Eventually absolutely. However, I have some bigger names to cover before then. (like that OTHER Elvis)
@@mattbeatgoeson Indeed
I know you see me
The final tour ended please do one on the Grateful Dead
How about doing a video on Chris Cornell/Soundgarden/Audioslave.
Janis was the type of personality that was destined to not grow old, yet she still died way too young at 27
Do deep purple
I plan on it at some point
I love Janis her voice is a style of her own. Love u janis ❤❤❤
Could u do a talking heads one? Stop making sense is gettin rereleased and theyre doin a q&a their first public appearance together in 21 years
You should do a video on Oasis!!
I love the Janis version of Buffy Sainte-Marie’s Cod’ine. Sadly prophetic.
Can you make a video about the History of Elton John? I think a lot of people would enjoy it
Can you do The Jimi Hendrix Experience?
It's been on my list for awhile!
Love Janis I couldnt pick a favorite but love Piece of my heart Get it while you can One night stand down on me (live version) summertime me & Bobby Mcgee, my baby miseryn maybe, cry baby Ball & chain (cheap thrills) catch me daddy, move over, farewell song
You should do The Cure
You should a brief history of the smashing pumpkins
I'd love a video on Bob Marley, with the movie coming out in January.
Can you make a video about Kraftwerk. Featuring a german band would spruce up this format
Bruce Springsteen next please!!!
make a brief history of the doors
do one on the doors
Do Soundgarden!
