    Janis IS a member of the 27 Club. She is the real deal. She is as authentic as it gets. She had a rough time growing up in Texas. Always the outsider. She had few friends and the were social misfits as well. Often the target of others making fun of her. At one point while attending the University of Texas, she was voted "Ugliest Man On Campus". She had to blow that town and she headed to the west coast (I'm skipping a lot here) and ended up in San Francisco, the home of free spirits, talented people, cast offs, artists, etc. In other words, she found a place where she fit in. She ended up hooking up with Big Brother & The Holding Company and started to build a following. The were invited to The Monterey Pop Festival where she (and Jimi Hendrix, Otis Redding, The Who, and several others broke open the American market and blew everyone's mind). I wager that you will not see a performer in your life that is more real and authentic, more riveting and unashamed to expose her inner feeling and emotions to an audience to let them experience all the pain and loneliness she had experienced in her relatively short life. She made you feel and after the first time seeing/hearing her, you are not the same. She had so many great songs in her short meteoric career. Just a few suggestions to check out: Down On Me, Kozmic Blues, Piece of My Heart, Ball and Chain, Get It While You Can, To Love Somebody, Me and Bobby McGee, Maybe, A Woman Left Lonely, and so many more. She was a once in a generation, if not a once in a lifetime artist. Janis Joplin Forever...

    This was my generation of music, and she stood out. The first time you hear her you fall in love with her. I wish she knew how much she was loved. I wish she knew she would be a legend of legends. She was bullied as a kid in school, outcast, tormented by bullies. But she rose above it. The pain in her voice is real. She sometimes wept during and after her performances because it was so evocative for her. It was such a loss when she died.

  • @TodayImMaking
    @TodayImMaking 6 місяців тому +245

    Yes, Janis is sadly in the 27 club. This song was released after her death. All of her songs are fantastic, but she's probably most known for Ball and Chain, Piece of My Heart, Summertime, and Me and Bobby McGee. The best Joplin video you can react to is her doing Ball and Chain at Monterey. She walked into that show a nobody (like, seriously - they didn't even record her first performance because she was an opening act but then they made her do it all again after they realized how special she is). So she walked into that show a nobody and left a legend.

    Janis grew up in Port Arthur, Texas and was a fan of the black female singers of the 1920s and 1930s, i.e. Bessie Smith, Big Mama Thornton, and Ma Rainey. She also tended to dress like Bessie Smith, who was known for her flashy clothes.

    In 1970, I was a 16 year old in Ohio. My step-sister and I ran away to California with plans to see Janis at the 1970 Monterey Pop Festival. Got to LA, hung around a while. The fest was scheduled the middle of Oct. and we planned to be there.... However Janis was found dead in a chalet in LA on Oct. 4th., 2 weeks before the festival. We were so bummed! We did make it to Monterey in spite of Janis' loss. What a trip! RIP to all the members of the 27 Club. Janis, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Curt Cobain and Amy Winehouse are the ones I know of.

Along the way we met a little, dirty biker dude and this guy convinced the bride they were together in a previous life. She dumped her fiancé for him! Stepsister's boyfriend got poisoned on the beach one night. I about fell off a cliff on the beach. 2 Hell's Angels were scheming something on me, friends and step sister pulled up in a car and rescued me. Oh, to be young and dumb again!! lol

Her last boyfriend/lover was Kris Kristofferson who broke with her due to her drug/alcohol dependence that was ruining her talent & hampering her future. Little did he know she had recorded "Me & Bobby McGee" - which was released after her death!!! So glad she made it to the R&R Hall of Fame - she so deserved it!!!

Apparently, they played a second show so that the promoters could record their performance. That's probably why Cass is sitting in the audience. She already had an idea what was to come.

    Please I have to tell you how wonderful it is as a 62-year-old woman to watch someone discover the music that I grew up with, the best era for music ever. We had the beautiful sounds 60s harmonies to the grungy hippie 70s with some country and Bluegrass sprinkled in between. We had rooms that were better than the originals, guitarists who sounds went through your the veins in your body through to your soul. We had voices that didn't need Auto-Tune would just as amazing as guitar solos and then we had drum solos that would just pound inside your body like a wonderful reminder that you're alive. Enjoy your journey and I want to give you so many ideas of other songs. But being that I'm on a Joplin reaction I think I'll leave you with, try her singing summertime, from the Play Porgy and Bess. Please enjoy. Love you

    One of my favorite videos is Janis and Tom Jones singing "Raise Your Hand" live on the Tom Jones show. Two legends together.

    Nobody can touch Janis Joplin. She was taken way too soon. Don't get me wrong as I have a lot of respect and love for many female artist. Something just came from deep inside of her and that something came out full force when she performed.
    She was painfully shy and bullied in her school years. I wonder what these bullies have thought these past decades.
    I'm so sorry you weren't turned on to Pearl long ago but the great thing is you are now. This is so good it hurts. I just Thank my Lord I was able to exist in the music decades I did. PEACE.

    That opening? Janis is singing three notes at once. It was put on a voice machine...she sang three notes at once throughout her career, and not all in her wailing ...there again, on her second cry baby chorus... And she ALWAYS left part of her soul on stage. Jawdroppingly dropping everyone who ever watched her perform.

    Janis is one artist I can never get enough of! She is someone who always gave 100%! She became known by the world at The Monterrey Pop concert, in 1967. Unfortunately she passed in 1970. Yes, she is one of the 27 Club, along with Hendrix and Jim Morrison…. She was poorly treated in Port Arthur, Texas, and continued to have her progressive views on race, etc. She had been singing the blues since age 14.
    I love this woman…raw, all out talent! Janis loved Aretha, Otis Redding among others and didn’t live long enough to see that people loved her just as much as those icons!

    I really enjoy watching your reactions to the music of my life. She has the dubious honor of being one of the OG's in the 27 club. "Cry Baby" is a song originally recorded by Garnet Mimms and the Enchanters, in 1963, and later recorded by rock singer Janis Joplin in 1970.

    There was a gangly 14 year old girl on America's Got Talent that came out on the stage and was so shy and sweet, British, and talked about being bullied for the way she sings. Simon said, we won't tease you here... Go ahead and sing for us. She sang this song and sounded JUST LIKE Janis!!! She got the golden buzzer! I often wonder how she is doing today...🤔🙄. My favorite Janis song is Take Another Piece of my Heart. Great song!! The FM radio station in Long Beach Cal. played her songs when I was a young mother. 💋💃🍹

    No one has ever been able to even come close to copying the raspy wailing beauty that Janis was able to bring... She really had an ability that is unmatched. Amazing vocals with "soul". She was one of a kind for sure. Thank you BP for exploring her sound. I really appreciate your reactions... you are "real" dude and I'm always looking for what you're going to bring next.

    "Maybe" is in my opinion the most underrated Joplin tune and worthy of a reaction. Also her take on the Bee Gees " To Love Somebody" live on the Dick Cavett show from 1969 is worth viewing. Her "I Got Dem 'Ol Kozmic Blues Again Mama" release is remarkable, unfortunately her talent eclipsed the musicianship and it never rose to the critical and commercial height it richly deserves. She was absolutely brilliant.

    Got goosebumps didn't ya? I did too when I first started listening to Janis. I still do, in fact. LOVE her... such a beauty, inside and out
    Definitely check out her "Kozmic Blues", "Get It While You Can", "Little Girl Blue", "Ball and Chain", "Maybe", "Summertime", "Me and Bobby McGee", "Mercedes Benz", and To Love Somebody and DEFINITELY "Work Me Lord!" ALL absolutely phenomenal. And DEFINITELY check her out live. She is a firecracker.
    Shy and laid back in interviews, a hurricane on stage.
