    Laura Joplin was a professor of literature of mine, when I was an exchange student at the Prescott Center of Alternative Education. She never even discussed the fame of her sister, Janis, though we all knew about it, They were very down to earth people.

    I was a 60's child. Weird times, but EXCITING if you were a young person. I saw Janis in concert at the Fillmore in 1969. I'll never forget it. THAT was the best concert I've EVER been to, and I'm 72 yrs old! I shed a tear whenever I think of her. She closed the door on the 60's for me. God bless us all!

    I know that she was much more than a hard partier and rocker
    she was a caring person who loved dogs, cars and good times with friends
    she was and is a sister and daughter a really intelligent person with a broad and open mind.
    it breaks my heart that she could not have been with us longer. thanks for the music you gave us Janis. Rest in Peace.
    just like her brother and Sister are. Very nice people from Texas

    If there was one person that I would love to party with or just hang out with would be Janis Joplin I love everything about her she was a beautiful woman beautiful soul and one hell of a reble. She should have been added to the rock and roll hall of fame way before 1995. My God bless her soul forever. Just imagine what she would be like today the music she would have done I am just so thankful that we got to hear her voice for a moment in time. But her songs will last forever. Amen to Janis Joplin..

    My little band opened at the Grande Ballroom in Detroit for the MC5 and Big Brother and the Holding Company when Janis was the vocalist. She sang between tugs on a bottle of Jack Daniels, amazed everyone in the place, knocked us out. Everyone fell in love. She left it all on the stage, didn't let up till her show was over. Was amazing she had enough energy to carry herself off the stage after what she gave.

      I remember faintly when she died, I was 12 years old in Vancouver Canada - sometimes called 'San Francisco North' - my older sister age 20 at the time and her friends were talking about it, and what it represented as a tragedy, socially for the times. Although I profess I was never a fan of J.J., I can seen NOW, 50 years later, how hugely significant she was as a symbol of grass roots rebellion, in most of my life I was mostly a conformer to society - unless something was really outrageous - now as I age I see how full of nonsense and injustice much of society is.........for instance, European colonialism is still viewed and taught in many education systems in Western Nations as benevolent and paternal, when in reality it was exploitive and subjugative, this is just one example, there are multitudes more.

Janis drank in her parents’ house but not nearly as much as the guys. You can find this information in Myra Friedman’s book Buried Alive. Peace.

      Janis couldn't possibly have said that because it makes absolutely no sense. No one who grew up in Port Arthur, as Janis did, would say that PA is "20 miles up it", since Beaumont is upriver from PA. Being closer to the Gulf of Mexico, PA is more analogous to a butthole, than Beaumont. But then, maybe Janis was just really bad at geography. Ha ha.

After Myra resigned from her job at Albert Grossman’s management company, she refused to get another job in an office. She mooched off Janis’ memory from 1973 until her death in 2010.

      I can see why someone might get that impression but perhaps she's not used to or comfortable speaking in front of a huge audience as well as being broadcast into millions of homes on television.

      She's an intellect. Highly educated.
      Sometimes that type lacks compassion and emotion as their brain analyzes everything in terms of theory

      Planetanitaac God, I hope this is sarcasm. It wasn’t excellent. He insulted her and tried to frame his narrative like she was a tramp. It’s disgusting, his vile anecdote of her. He spoke of a guy who wanted to use her body in exchange for a recording of her song. I’m glad he said nothing happened, though. I wanted to smack this guy upside the head for daring to mention this at her induction ceremony, and I hope Janis kicked that Armin guy whom silver haired dude referred to, square in his privates for suggesting such a thing to her. This jackass tried to ruin a beautiful moment where Janis was being honoured. What a disgusting person.

      first off this is quite a statement for you to make, as if you know but any sister knows we go through those days growing up it's called family and maybe you think you'd be entitled to live off her instead?? people just get over yourself i'm sure she doesnt have a bad feeling taking care of family (business) she wasand always will be a legend but even legends have faults and high points

      cwb0051 Can’t really compare. Don’t know about Mozart, but Paul speaks of his brother often. Paul also had a wonderful upbringing. His father taught him to play piano, and fully supported Paul in his endeavours. Janis didn’t have that support.

      Wow! Typical hater! People are so cruel. Especially when they are most likely just jealous. Janis was beautiful inside and out. Even after being bullied, when she could have turned cold and hateful herself. No, instead she touched the lives of so many people in such a positive way that you have no idea of her impact. You are a sad sad person for making a comment about her like that. You should take a long look in the mirror. And I definitely mean to look way deeper than the reflection you see. That is if you can stand it. God Bless!
