Gotta watch a live video of Janis to get the full effect. Pure passion and soul on stage.

Janis Joplin was a one of a kind singer with a unique voice. Sadly we lost her too soon. She was only 27 when she died. She had a lot of great songs such as "Me & Bobby McGee", "Ball & Chain", "Cry Baby", "Summertime", "Down On Me", "Maybe", "Little Girl Blue", "Try (Just A Little Bit Harder)", "Get It While You Can", "Bye, Bye Baby", "Move Over", "Mercedes Benz" etc.

You're correct in your guess relative to her stage persona; she filled the stage. Her performance of "Ball and Chain" at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival was a landmark rock moment; watch it. Also, she absolutely delivered "Little Girl Blue" and "Raise Your Hand" on Tom Jones' tv show in December 1969.

Love this reaction! Please, please PLEASE do Janis Joplin "Ball and Chain - Monterrey Pop Festival" next, you will absolutely LOVE it.

[mattshaw]

Janis Joplin was indeed ridiculously influential and gifted; her raw soul remains instantly recognizable. "Cry Baby" and "Ball and Chain" demonstrate her intensity, but often-overlooked "A Woman Left Lonely" and "Little Girl Blue" are heartbreakingly intimate. Please _please_ go into her work!

Her version of Summertime also whilst she was with Big Brother and the Holding Company is simply stunning.

[susanlindner]

Janis didn't always hit every note perfectly pitched but her whole soul was into the feeling of the songs. She was amazing.

[terrieb]

I have always loved Janis. A true legend gone way too soon. Enjoy your Janis journey. Like others, I would suggest the live performance of Ball and Chain at Monterey. Also her cover of Summertime is exceptional. 💖😎

[dawncarpenter]

Yes a great song. One you might like. Me and Bobby McGee. Thank you again. You never let us down!!!

[KurtAnderson]

Pearl had such a fantastic voice and the way she turned a phrase was so special

[mooneyesk]

Nobody had a voice like Janis. That voice, like very VERY few others, is unmistakable.

[robertdoerr]

A lot of southern comfort and Winston's crafted that voice.

[robertyanes]

There will never be anyone like her. She could rock your pants off, and could sing beautiful melodic ballads. " little girl blue" or "work me lord". Great reaction!

[bjw]

She was extremely gifted and taken from us way too soon! Yes, she was a very animated singer in her performances. I highly suggest you finding a live performance of hers. Thanks for all the reactions!

You have to do Janis Joplin - Ball and Chain live at Monterrey Pop Festival

[rodb]

Janis was a Rock GODDESS. You really should take a trip down that rabbit hole. She died SO young. It's amazing to think of what we are missing from what she would have put out if she had lived longer.

[chitownlee]

To really appreciate Janis, you need to watch her live.

[Ginger_Cat]

No one can sing like her, she is one of a kind, one of my all time favorite singers. Her version of "Summertime" is incredible.

[geniej]

I'm buckled in for a Janis Joplin ride. Bring it on.

[ohfour-seven]

I was lucky enough to see her live with her Full Tilt Boogie Band; we had third row seats and yes, she was animated. Janis is definitely the real deal. Nice expression on your face when you first heard her voice!
