This is the best version of Summertime ever.
She sings from the heart and her soul.
She is my favorit since I heard her in the 60:s.
I am 72 now and I listen to her and I will always do. 🥰

Saw Janis up close at the Monterey Pop Festival. I'm 74 and she still rocks my very soul

[kayakdan]

Almost 72 and can't stop listening...OMG! Won the lottery of life to have lived in the 60's and 70's as a young person...to last a lifetime!

According to the ancient Greeks, a tragic hero must have two things.
1) A soul large enough to suffer for humanity.
2) A tragic flaw.
That describes Janis Joplin perfectly.

An Amazing Activist in troubled times. I was 16. I'm 70. She changed my life.

Her voice is unbelievable, I cant really understand how someone had that voice and walked here on earth

[justinchadwick]

Janis had the most haunting voice of any female performer I have ever heard.

[artsanchez]

Doesn't' get any better than this...she helped me get through Vietnam, , , her energy and all the bummers happening. Made me feel not alone - this before PTSD was know.

August 2024. Mom just passed and Janis was her favorite musician. For you mom! ❤

[BialyEuropejczyk]

Her soul was overwhelming. She didn't just sing. She was giving herself to listeners in every her song. She is a genius and her music is still alive and millions love her forever.

[jimconace]

The pain in her voice is incredible... I have no words!

This video brings back my favorite memory with Janis from March, 1969 at Winterland in SF. JJ was hitting her cow bell so hard on a fast instrumental break that she broke her drumstick. I was in my usual position, right in front of her at the front of the stage, and I had my tambourine with me so I offered it to her. She took it, played it and handed it back when the song was over. Then Sam’s terrific guitar intro to Summertime started and Janis looked right at me and started singing it to me! My best friend, Lucy, was all: Shelly! She’s singing to you! I was like: I know, shut up, don’t interrupt! She kept looking at me and singing for the entirety of the song. I was stoked! So lucky to have seen Janis live so many times! Later I carved: JJ 3-22-69 on the inside of the tambourine. Sadly, a burglar made off with it years later, but our moment remains in my memory and I still melt every time I hear Summertime.

Played this performance so many times over the years. Still makes me cry. What a beautiful person that we lost the day janis slipped away.
Love you janis
always.
