Happy birthday, Janis Joplin! 💙 (January 19, 1943 – October 4, 1970)

Quotes by artists influenced by Janis' legacy below:

"Janis put herself out there completely, and her voice was not only strong and soulful, it was painfully and beautifully real. She sang in the great tradition of the rhythm & blues singers that were her heroes, but she brought her own dangerous, sexy rock & roll edge to every single song. She really gave you a piece of her heart. And that inspired me to find my own voice and my own style." - Stevie Nicks "I think she allowed women to have their pain. Her thing was so borne from her pain. Her amazing talent was because of the pain she had...I think she was so misunderstood, and she was so intelligent, emotionally intelligent, and what came out of her was almost beyond what her physical body could even do as a singer, and what she was putting across." - Nancy Wilson (of Heart) on Janis "That’s really how I learned [to sing], and I was already listening to the greats like Janis Joplin, who I loved to death, and who was one of the greatest rock singers ever..." - Rob Halford (of Judas Priest) "I never knew Janis, I never saw her or heard her voice live, I never witnessed the fireball of fury that she unleashed onstage, but I think I understand. When a soul can look on the world, and see and feel the pain and loneliness, and can reach deep down inside, and find a voice to sing of it, a soul can heal. And hers did." - Melissa Etheridge "I saw Janis Joplin when I was 15. I heard her sing, and I couldn’t believe she was smoking on stage, she was drinking Southern Comfort, and she sang like no other. She could sing a song entitled, 'Take A Little Piece of My Heart' and deliver it so beautifully, amazingly." - Steven Tyler (of Aerosmith) "She was such a huge influence on me. Because she was so different to any other female vocalist of the time. I was used to Cilla Black, Dusty Springfield and those sort of singers, who were great, but Joplin was unique. She was not a pop star, but really belted out those songs. There was so much emotion in something like 'Move Over.'" - Enid Williams (of Girlschool) "You listen to a Janis Joplin record and she just puts — she wears everything on her sleeve, whether she's completely drugged up, it's on her sleeve. If she's totally just passionately screaming at the top of her lungs, it's on her sleeve. You feel like whatever she's talking about and whatever she's singing about, she sang it with no cares, no second thoughts, no looking back. She didn't say, 'You know what, let's take that take again.' She sang it and she sang it with every bone in her body, and that was that." - Alicia Keys

Lecture 12: Janis Joplin left Big Brother and the Holding Company in 1968 and organized another group, the Kozmic Blues Band. In the last year of her life, her music evolved into a more soulful and bluesy style that emphasized her voice even more than her music with Big Brother. In this video, Janis performs a song titled “Kozmic Blues” at a 1970 concert in Frankfurt. They perform such songs as “Try (Just a Little Bit Harder),” “Me,” “Maybe,” “Summertime” and “Ball and Chain.” The Kozmic Blues band consisted of a variety of different musicians, including Joplin’s former Big Brother band mate Sam Andrew and legendary Blues guitarist Mike Bloomfield. I Got Dem Ol’ Kozmic Blues Again Mama! was Joplin’s only solo album released during her lifetime. Her next album, Pearl, came out posthumously. (Incidentally, this concert footage also includes brief interview segments -- check it out!)

Born on this Day: The iconic Janis Joplin (#Bi2).

In the early hours, between midnight and dawn, on Sunday, August 17, 1969, Janis Joplin took to the stage, marking a historic moment during the three-day Woodstock Music and Art Fair in Bethel, New York. Draped in her signature long-sleeved tie-dyed outfit, this performance held special significance as it was Joplin's first major solo act after parting ways with her band, Big Brother & The Holding Company, a year earlier following the release of their album "Cheap Thrills".

Facing an unexpectedly massive crowd, Joplin fearlessly entertained with a mix of new songs, covers, and beloved Big Brother favorites. While initially criticized for departing from her iconic performances with Big Brother (notably at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival), Joplin's Woodstock show secured her place in rock history.

Joplin asked the audience in the dark, "How are you guys out there? You're staying stoned and you got enough water and you got a place to sleep and everything? Because all of us — and I don't mean to be preachy — but we oughta remember, and that means promoters too, that music's for grooving, man, and music's not for putting yourself through bad changes. You don't have to take anybody's shit, man, just to enjoy music."

Joplin kicked off her performance with a spirited rendition of Eddie Floyd's "Raise Your Hand," backed by the Kozmic Blues Band. This lineup included guitarist John Till, keyboardist Richard Kermode, bassist Brad Campbell, drummer Maury Baker, along with Terry Clements on tenor saxophone, Luis Gasca on trumpet, and Cornelius "Snooky" Flowers on baritone saxophone.

The band introduced their first new track, "As Good As You've Been To This World", from Joplin's upcoming 1969 debut album "I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama!" Transitioning to a mellower groove, Joplin delivered a soulful rendition of the Bee Gees' hit "To Love Somebody", also featured on her "new" album, followed by a sultry interpretation of George and Ira Gershwin's classic standard "Summertime", previously covered on "Cheap Thrills".

Joplin poured her heart into the 11-song set, pushing her vocal limits. She regained the energy with two more new songs, "Try (Just A Little Bit Harder)" and the heartfelt ballad "Kozmic Blues".

Tenor saxophonist Snooky Flowers joined in for a spirited rendition of Otis Redding's 1965 hit "Can't Turn You Loose" before the set's grand finale, "Work Me, Lord", a Nick Gravenites composition that Joplin belted out until her voice could carry no more.

Encouraged by the roaring audience, Joplin returned to the stage, concluding her Woodstock performance with two tracks from "Cheap Thrills." These songs were her iconic hit "Piece Of My Heart" and a fervent cover of Big Mama Thornton's "Ball And Chain", delivering every ounce of herself to the enthralled crowd.

Janis Joplin and Mike Bloomfield with the Kozmic Blues Band One Good Man 1969

Janis always rips my heart out and does so again here. Mike’s blues playing is even more sharp and smoldering than it usually was. A great cut.

2, 14 and 18 for the music questions please!

2. an album you wish you could hear again for the first time

Hm. I think Arlo Guthrie's Alice's Restaurant would be fun just because you wouldn't know what to expect from it, and it's probably as funny to an adult stoner as it is to kids.

14. is there any band/musician who you really strongly dislike? if so, why?

Can't do Phish, can't do Steely Dan, and I know this is blasphemy here but Kate Bush bugs me. She's an acquired taste and I've got the soapy cilantro gene about her.

18. what decade do you think had the best music? is there any particular year that you think was the best?

You decade-limit Miette? You decade-limit Miette like someone who isn't 24/7 time traveling in spirit?

I kid. Close call, but 60s. With the totally unoriginal opinion of '69 as a frontrunner. But that's because you've got the first (and only tolerable, if you dislike long guitar solos) Zeppelin album, you've got TOMMY, you've got Janis' Kozmic Blues, Doors' Soft Parade, Woodstock... lots going on there and all of it very fucking groovy.

Janis Joplin's influence on the counterculture movement of the 1960s and 70s was significant. Her rejection of societal norms and embrace of individuality and freedom resonated with young people across the country, and she became a symbol of the anti-establishment movement. Joplin's music spoke to the disenfranchised and gave voice to those who felt marginalized. Janis Joplin's legacy continues to inspire and influence new generations of musicians. Her impact on music and culture cannot be overstated, and her contributions to the industry will be remembered for decades to come. II. Early Life Janis Joplin was born in Port Arthur, Texas, on January 19, 1943. She was the oldest of three children and grew up in a conservative and religious household. Joplin's parents encouraged her to pursue academic excellence and conformity to societal norms, but she struggled to fit in with her peers. Joplin's love for music began at a young age. She was inspired by artists such as Bessie Smith, Odetta, and Lead Belly. Joplin taught herself to play the guitar and began performing at local coffeehouses and bars in her late teens. In 1962, Joplin enrolled at the University of Texas at Austin, where she studied art. However, her passion for music soon took over, and she dropped out of college to pursue a career in music. In 1966, Joplin moved to San Francisco, where she became immersed in the city's burgeoning music scene. She formed a band called the Cosmic Blues Band, which later became Big Brother and the Holding Company.

Her love for music and her rebellious spirit set her on a path that would ultimately lead her to become one of the most influential musicians of her generation. A. Childhood and Family Background Janis Joplin was born into a middle-class family in Port Arthur, Texas, on January 19, 1943. Her father, Seth Joplin, was an engineer, and her mother, Dorothy East, was a registrar at a business college. Joplin had two younger siblings, Laura and Michael. Joplin's childhood was marked by a sense of isolation and a feeling of not fitting in. She was a misfit in her conservative and religious community, and she struggled to make friends. Joplin found solace in music and art, and she spent much of her time drawing and singing. Joplin's parents encouraged academic excellence and conformity to societal norms. However, Joplin rebelled against these expectations from a young age. She was drawn to the bohemian lifestyle and the counterculture movement of the 1960s, which was in direct contrast to the values of her parents and community. Joplin's relationship with her family was strained, and she often clashed with her parents over her unconventional choices. However, Joplin remained close to her siblings throughout her life, and they were a source of support and comfort for her. Joplin's childhood and family background played a significant role in shaping her identity and worldview. Her struggles with isolation and a sense of not belonging would inform much of her music and art. Joplin's rebellion against societal norms and embrace of individuality would become a defining characteristic of her career and legacy. B. Early Musical Influences Janis Joplin's love for music began at a young age. She was exposed to a wide range of musical genres and was particularly drawn to blues, folk, and soul music. Joplin's musical influences would later become the foundation of her own unique sound. One of Joplin's earliest musical inspirations was Bessie Smith, an African American blues singer. Joplin was captivated by Smith's powerful voice and her ability to convey deep emotion through her music. Joplin later stated that Smith was her biggest influence and that she had learned everything she knew about singing from listening to her. Joplin was also inspired by the folk music of Odetta, a singer and guitarist known for her political activism and soc

ial commentary. Odetta's music spoke to Joplin's sense of rebellion and her desire to challenge the status quo. Lead Belly, another folk singer, was also a significant influence on Joplin's music. His raw, emotional style and his ability to connect with his audience resonated with Joplin. She was drawn to his music's authenticity and its ability to convey deep truths about the human experience. Joplin's early musical influences laid the foundation for her own unique style.

This is a blog to post about my stories from following a band or just plain traveling for the music. Not sure when or how frequently I’ll post my stories, but I just want to get them out there. The band I follow (followed, on a tour break because of unfortunate financial situation caused by a lot of personal situations) on tour is Led Zeppelin 2, a Chicago based Led Zeppelin tribute band. If I can find a way to swing it I want to try to follow some of Robert Plant’s next US tour. My favorite part of the US is the east coast and I feel most at home in Bethel New York.

Song Lyrics I Took to Heart

“Let the music be your master. Will you heed the master's call?” -Led Zeppelin, Houses of the Holy (song)

“A box of rain will ease the pain and love will see you through.” -Grateful Dead, Box of Rain

“It is the summer of my smiles. Flee from me, keepers of the gloom.” -Led Zeppelin, The Rain Song

“Aww, but it don't make no difference, babe

And I know that I could always try

There's a fire inside of everyone of us

You better need it now, I get to hold it, yeah

I better use it until the day I die” -Janis Joplin, Kozmic Blues

Music History Today: January 19, 2023

January 19, 1943: Janis Joplin was born in Port Arthur, Texas. She joined the band Big Brother and the Holding Company in 1966. Their 1968 album, Cheap Thrills, was a huge hit. However, friction between Joplin and the band prompted her to part ways with Big Brother soon after.

Joplin released her first solo effort, I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama!, in 1969. The album received mixed reviews, but her second project, Pearl (1971), released after Joplin's death, was hugely successful. The singer died of an accidental overdose on October 4, 1970, at age 27.

Sabías que, (1941-2015) El 18 de diciembvre de 1941 nació en Taft, California, el cantante y músico rock estadounidense Sam Andrew, guitarra solista y miembro fundador en 1965 de la banda californiana Big Brother and the Holding Company en la que Janis Joplin, la voz solista del grupo, comenzó a mostrar sus habilidades vocales. El álbum debut homónimo apareció en 1967 y contenía temas como ‘Bye bye baby’, ‘Down on me’ y ‘Call on me’, éste último compuesto por Sam. El segundo trabajo, ‘Cheap Thrills’ fue directo al nº1 con clásicos como ‘Piece of my heart’, ‘Ball and Chain’ y su versión del ‘Summertime’ de Gershwin, cuyo solo de guitarra está considerado por la revista Guitar Player uno de los diez mejores solos del rock psicodélico. En diciembre de 1968 Sam y Janis abandonan la formación para formar una nueva banda, la Kozmic Blues Band con la que graban ‘I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama!’. El resultado, aunque exitoso, no fue del todo satisfactorio para Sam que volvió con Big Brother con los que siguió trabajando hasta que en 1972 dejaron de actuar. Se trasladó a Nueva York donde estudió composición, armonía y contrapunto. Compuso una sinfonía y dos cuartetos de cuerda y varias bandas sonoras para films americanos y canadienses. En los años ochenta regresó a San Francisco y en 1987 los Big Brother se volvieron a reunir. Sam siguió al frente de la banda hasta su muerte en febrero de 2015 a los 73 años. @relaxvideobar www.relaxvideobar.com (at RELAX VIDEO BAR) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmX2TPwsHZ2sNWY8dPVfl7DCjhPlY4IP2SO8J80/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

JANIS JOPLIN👩‍🎤

El 4 de octubre de 1970, en Los Ángeles, moría un símbolo de la contracultura y la primera estrella femenina del Rock & Roll, ese día se apagaba la vida de Janis Joplin.

Nacida en Porth Arthur, Texas, el 19 de enero de 1943, en el seno de una familia con desmesuradas convicciones religiosas, por lo que Janis solo podía conocer el mundo de manera furtiva.

No fueron los sueños ni deseos de aventura los que rompieron sus lazos familiares, fue la música, el blues y Jazz que escuchaban sus amigos y amigas eran inaceptables para su familia, para colmo no solo le gustaba escucharla, se descubrió facilidades para interpretarla, cambiando el coro de la iglesia por los oscuros escenarios del Rock & Roll.

Sus padres intentaron confinarla en un internado, pero ella insistió en cursar Bellas Artes en la Universidad de Texas, allí comenzó a beber en exceso y relacionarse con personas inadecuadas.

Para escapar de ese mundo, se mudó a San Francisco, logró dejar atrás a malvivientes y traficantes pero el alcohol viajó con ella, pese a relacionarse con músicos de las bandas The Grateful Dead y Jefferson Airplane, no aprovechó su oportunidad, se sumergió en el mundo de las drogas y se abandonó físicamente, llegó a pesar solo 35 Kg.

Luego de un breve matrimonio con Peter LeBlanc conoció al productor Chet Helms que la incluyó en el proyecto “Big Brother and The Holding Company” que en 1966 grabó su primer disco.

El éxito de esta agrupación elevó la autoestima de Janis que comenzó a cuidar su aspecto y aceptar presentarse en vivo acompañando a sus viejos amigos de The Grateful Dead y Jefferson Airplane.

En 1967 se presentó en el festival de Monterrey, el público esperaba ver a The Who, Mamas and The Papas, Otis Redding y Jimi Hendrix, pero cuando esta desconocida y tímida joven comenzó a cantar “Ball And Chain” el público estalló, fue su consagración.

La crítica coincidió que la banda no estaba a la altura de semejante talento, Chet Helms le armó otra banda "Kozmic Blues Band" con la que grabó su segundo disco.

Luego de una exitosa gira por Europa regresó a los EEUU para lo que sin saberlo sería la cima de su carrera, Woodstock 1969, de la que fue una de sus figuras principales.

Janis inició una desintoxicación de la heroína que fue un éxito, por ello generó confianza en otros productores, Albert Grossman le propuso una nueva banda integrada por músicos virtuosos, nacía “Full Tilt Boogie Band”.

El 4 de Octubre de 1970, cuando las grabaciones de un nuevo disco culminaron fue a una fiesta con su nueva pareja, Seth Morgan, allí sobraba la heroína, Janis alcoholizada sucumbió ante la droga que esta vez no la perdonó, cuando la ingresaron en el hospital, ya estaba muerta. El disco póstumo “Pearl!” fue un éxito de ventas y se mantuvo 14 semanas en el Nº1.
