This performance is epic for more than one reason in the audience were Clive Davis and Mamma Cass this performance sealed her future as one of the most iconic figures of the late 60s and early 70s if she hadn't passed in 73 who knows what she would have given us
@@Trucker231610 She is...but she's not a commercial star. That's one of the differences between today and back in the day. The best singers and bands were also the top of the charts. It's just not possible in today's music business. They have to be Taylor Swift or Cardi B. Both will be forgotten while Aretha Franklin, Janis Joplin, Carol King, Stevie Nicks, etc etc, will always be remembered.
@@davidhapka5410 You're right the music business has changed and it always will that's why it's up to us(The Old Folks) to help the non-pop stars get introduced to the new generation. Not just bash the new music because there's always gonna be new music we just have to keep the good stuff alive. I think the reaction channels are a good tool for this, this is the new radio station. I try to support channels that play classic Rock and blues you'd be surprised how many young people are liking the classic stuff and wish music was like that today, so maybe there will be a shift soon. Don't count on the radio stations the record companies are paying them.
@@Trucker231610 It's much too late. Remember when it was about radio, 45's and 33 albums? Musicians who played instruments and singer/songwriters who created music that will endure forever? Just as with most mediums and art forms today, everything has been dumbed down and scattered among too many platforms. I call today's music, disposable. Nothing more than product. Instantly forgettable. Etc etc.
@@joeybee1914Got any Xanies you wanna get hid of?? Since this stupid So-called opioid crisis you can’t get them anymore. I had to chose between methadone and Xanax for a neck problem they tried to”Fix”😂😂 Just messing wouldn’t do anything to risk meds I have left.
Great reaction to an iconic singer and performer! She was the real deal! And yes, to see her live would've been an amazing experience. Mama Cass' reaction said it all!
Her records were fantastic, but her concerts were something to behold. Her passion brought you in and took your soul to places you could not imagine. Albums on the radio over and over concerts live or occasionally on tv. J J gone but never never forgotten.
It's so sad that she passed so early, her voice cuts right thru you, like a hot knife thru butter. There will be no other artist like it. The closest currently to Janis has to be Beth Hart. Check out her music. She did "I'll Take Care Of You" and "I'd Rather Go Blind" with Joe Bonamassa. Absolutely Great! She also had her own band, here's a couple of song to check out. "Caught Out In The Rain" Live @The Royal Albert Hall and "Am I The One" Live @The Paradiso. Enjoy!
One of my favorites of hers is "Cry". She left way too soon and sadly became a member of the 27 Club ... those great artists who died at the age of 27. (Among them, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Curt Cobain, and Amy Winehouse.) RIP to all.
She was an amazing blues singer, authentic voice!! She sang at Woodstock,died way to young, I believe it was 1970,only 26yrs old R.I.P Janis!! I love your reactions Angela
This was her great breakout performance. My favorites are the studio versions of "Piece Of My Heart" and "Me and Bobby McGee". I don't believe there is a live version of Me and Bobby McGee as she died before it was released and she never knew that it became her #1 hit. Me and Bobby McGee was written by music legend in his own right, Kris Kristofferson with Fred Foster. She actually dated Kris for a few months during the year prior to her death. quote from Kris - ("Unfortunately, the first time I heard Janis’s recording of ‘Bobby McGee’ was when I had just gone down because she had died,” Kristofferson recalled. “But, I remember the producer, he asked me to come by his office the next day. He had something he wanted to play me. I didn’t even know she cut it. And, uh, he played it for me and I had to leave the room. It was impossibly hard to hear. So much love and emotion going into the song and knowing that she wasn’t there to enjoy that. … )
They sat on the same row, front and back of each other, John, Jopl by alphabetical order. Jimmy was on the people that verbally bullied her, called her names. That didn't come from Janis, it came from Jimmy. And he never apologized for it, He said she was weird.
I saw Janis Live in Calgary, Alberta around '72. You never ever forget her performance live. Such a beautiful soulfull singer with a power house vocal........Truly one of a kind
@@silgen Ha ha, Janis could prob pull it off. Correcting my Type "O" to 1970, the Festival Express tour across Canada. I'm 73 now, sry for the mistake. :)
This was a pivotal moment for Janis - it was no longer "bog Brother and the Holding Company", it was just "Janice". Back then, there was no youtube, no spotify, Imagine going to a live concert and seeing acts like this and Jimi Hendrix not having any idea what their music was like. Props for recognizing Mama Cass - you know you're good when you leave her in awe.
I'm glad you enjoyed this performance, and I loved hearing your reactions. This group was called Big Brother and the Holding Company, and Janis very quickly emerged as the star. Eventually she left and started a solo career. Before joining Big Brother, she was singing blues and country blues, usually with acoustic accompaniment, and her voice was strong and flawless. After joining the group, she had to start screaming to be heard over the amplified guitars, and her voice began to change and deteriorate, which gave her the rasping sound. But she was an exciting performer, and this show made her a star.
Janis Joplin will always be one of a kind. You have to remember, this was 1967. Up to that point, most female rock and roll singers were either innocent and demure singing in their party dresses or sex kittens performing for men. No woman had ever put such emotion into a song like Janis. And, quite frankly, there has not been a female singer like Janis ever since. Female singers are still either innocent and demure or play the sex kitten role for the male audience. Janis is the only one who knew how to get down and dirty with the guys.
Well …. My two cents. I couldn’t tell from your reaction if you had heard of or knew anything about Janis Joplin… BUT as great as this performance was at the time it occurred PLEASE listen/react to “Me and Bobby McGee” for a taste of what she was really capable of. Love you 😍
Definitely one of the greatest performances ever! When I heard Piece of my Heart in 68 I knew she would be big. Clive Davis the CEO of Columbia Records was in the audience and signed her to a contract there. The woman in the audience was Mama Cass of Mamas & Papas, great late 60s group. That group would be worth reacting to. Good day!
You've got an eclectic ear for music and you also formulate reactions that have more depth than all the other 20s-aged reaction channels I've seen. Most of them all copy each other's selections, so props on both accounts.
Janice’s shoes had a better performance than big Brothers out of tune fiasco. If she’d had Otis Reddings Backing band Booker T and the MGs she wouldn’t have needed more heroin than the GNP of Turkey.Listen to Otis performance at same festival and tell me I’m wrong.This is a disgrace.
If you watch the whole video of Monterey Pop, history was made for several performers. Otis Redding, the Who, Janis and the Jefferson Airplane became known nationally. Oh, yea, I almost forgot Jimmie Hendrix! I just missed getting a ride to it by none other than David Crosby and Graham Nash. I'd see Joplin and the Airplane at the Avalon and Fillmore ballrooms or during anti-war protests but this performance was the absolute best she ever did! On Big Brother's album, it didn't come out the same. Like with the Grateful Dead, these bands were better live than in an impersonal studio. Glad it was preserved by technology as crude as it was. Surprised you knew who Mama Cass was on sight! The most forgotten performer is Otis Redding who died tragically in an airplane crash right after "Sitting By the Dock of the Bay" came out. Few people know he wrote "R-E-S-P-E-C-T" made more famous by Aretha Franklin. Otis' rendition of "Try a Little Tenderness" at the Pop is fantastic too. I left Oregon as soon as I turned 18 because I knew what was happening in S.F. would never happen again. At 73 now, I was right. In the video, David Crosby mentions what a great sound system they had.
I believe that this is live, probably at Woodstock. Janis' band was called "Big Brother and the Holding Company". My favourite Janis is: Piece of my Heart, live in Frankfurt.
the air smelled like sweat and skin but tasted like honey. Sunshine thick and hot... energy hummed in constant rhythm with the elements.. we were all one. It was the last time; the 60's. I was born in the 70's, when people were tiptoeing around the elephant in the room...
Good to give props to Big Brother I mean, you ever know a guitarist that didn't want to be center stage? But the knew she was something special, and gave her room to shine and supported that. That's honorable
Thx! Memorable concert! Prior to this she performed at the “Newport” Pop festival in the San Fernando valley’s Devonshire Downs! Only very rare footage exists.
I was there, and it was cool. Apart from Cass Elliot's camera time, and Clive Davis to her left (in white jacket), the effect on our audience was that this was a stunning continuation into a new era of music. A female front singer, all of the acts that preceded it....the totallity was the diversity of muscial expression we now have, and the absolute shattering of the female performance. I'd dropped a little peyote, but I'm pretty sure this is accurate. Janis is iconic....but imagine what her perspective would have brought to music in the following 15 years had she not died trying to get away from heroin.... Lord, Janis was a refugee from a conservative city in Texas, and found freedom....freedom, in her music and the emerging Cali lifestyle.

And the one young lady that kept focusing on in the crowd was none other than Mama Cass Elliott.
No one ever recognizes Mama Cass. You are the first. Impressed.

It's been awhile but thank you for going here.
Back in the day we had Janis and Aretha.... today? Cardi B and Megan thee Stallion 🤔🙄 I'm glad I'm old 😎🤣
Dude Beth Hart is a pretty amazing singer of today.

'me and bobby mcgee' is a daily drive song.
On the floor (in portuguese: frascos para DROGAS igual ao Lança-Perfume no Carnaval aqui no Brasil).
She definitely got Clive Davis's attention signed her up right then and there
Cry baby and Mercedes Benz are amazing
Kudos for recognizing Mama Cass.
Jimi Hendrix was sitting with Cass. That must have been an amazing gathering of musicians
@@sharonhalliday3180 I believe Al "Blind Owl" Wilson of Canned heat was also there with Mama
I had a nice chat with Janis. She was good humored and engaging. Like the girl next door. Broke my heart when she passed.
That's a great memory ull never forget. That must of been an awesome experience!!
I had a chat with her last week, it was after I drank 28 Red bulls and had 12 Xanax bars.

this is the Ultimate hippy band, this is historic and sums up the music scene changing. Momma Cass don't lie..wow, she said. lol
Her live performance of "Summertime" is gold, too

The mesmerized look on Mama Cass's face in the audience, just screams the power in Janis's voice.

Fun fact : Janis went to high school with Jimmy Johnson , the former Cowboys coach , in Port
Arthur , Tx .
They sat on the same row, front and back of each other, John, Jopl by alphabetical order. Jimmy was on the people that verbally bullied her, called her names. That didn't come from Janis, it came from Jimmy. And he never apologized for it, He said she was weird.
@@kevincummings8853 Wow ! Haven't heard that before .
This is the song at this concert that caused Janis Joplin to get her first recording contract from the great Clive Davis. You are watching history!
Thanks for that info.
Thank you for mentioning that! 👍
@@GO-eo8kg That was Clive Davis in the white jacket to Cass' left.
"You don't interrupt Miss Janis Joplin!" Thank you!!
You must listen to . Raise your hand. Duet Janis and Tom Jones. It's Fantastic

Must have been one hell of a show as she had been dead for two years by then.

That was at the Monterey pop festival.
If I'm not mistaken, I believe that the woman it the audience was Cass Eliot, from The Mammas and The Poppas
I think that we all have "that playlist" that we play when we need to just explode in some way and this song is one of the ones you need on it

This was her introduction to the world of music. After this performance she became a true Rock and Roll star.
So cool you recognized Cass in the audience
I"ve watched so many reaction videos for this song, and NOBODY realizes that's Mama Cass in the audience. Love me some Angela!
Definitely one of the greatest performances ever! When I heard Piece of my Heart in 68 I knew she would be big.

Truly, one of rock's most iconic & magnetic performers...a few friends of mine met her on seperate occasions; in an airport & hotel elevator.
It's so special to love someone you never knew. Thank for this request and for you playing it.
Big Mama Thornton was very glad Janis did her song, and acknowledged her.
Yeas she always took a little piece of my heart when she sang...enjoy some other music from her.
Mama Cass was impressed.
Mama Cass in the audience was blown away.
"You don't interrupt Miss Janis Joplin."---------------------If only the other reactors were that wise.

You have to catch Jimi Hendrix at Monterey Pop Festival 🎸🤙. Hendrix left everyone like this 😲
Janis Joplin Little Girl Blue,
Some performances trancend musical genres so no matter if your into Rock Jazz or Classical etc. You can only be astounded by this girl
I believe that this is live, probably at Woodstock. Janis' band was called "Big Brother and the Holding Company". My favourite Janis is: Piece of my Heart, live in Frankfurt.
This was at the Monterey Pop Festival.
everybody in this video was wasted....and i'm talkin late 60's wasted. Janis liked her heroin and whiskey. RIP JJ

I saw her live in San Francisco! Love her.
Clive Davis: ‘Janis Joplin thought sleeping with me would make things seem less corporate’
One of the electric performers... might say spellbinding.
Good to give props to Big Brother
I mean, you ever know a guitarist that didn't want to be center stage?
But the knew she was something special, and gave her room to shine and supported that.
That's honorable
Try the song Summer Time , the one version from the album Big Brother and the holding company
Yes, you recognized Mama Cass!
No está sola hay como cinco así de buenas, incluyo a Angelina jordan
Unforgettable person…..with the right band…..
Back in the '70s Janis Joplin started out with a band called Big brother and the holding company
Big brother n the holding co. sux...but Joplin rocks!!
Angela. You looked a little queasy on this one. You cracked me up. Janis is not everyone's cup of tea.
Even with this terrible band she kills the full tilt boogie band was a good band but it's janis she makes everything sound great
Mama Cass in the front row....floored by the ultimate belt mistress.
When Mama Cass is floored at a performance.......nothing else needs said
How about Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix on the same stage things would have been burning
Legendary died to young the movie with Bette Midle The Rose is loosely based on Janis Joplin life.
You need to check out her song Me and Bobby McGee
@5:54 The Woman in the audience is Mama Cass Elliot, of The Mamas and the Papas.
Lillith Czar. the song KING
I can tell you did not enjoy this It’s hard for the young generation to appreciate The Blues
she should have hook up with a better guitar player!!!
you are the one reactor that knew that was Cass Elliott in the audience
Janis' voice has been described as molasses poured over gravel.
Janet Joplin definitely demands your attention
She had so much talent, and her band was sooo BAD!
Thx! Memorable concert! Prior to this she performed at the “Newport” Pop festival in the San Fernando valley’s Devonshire Downs! Only very rare footage exists.
Look at Mana Cass. She’s in total awe.
This song is by Big Mama Thorton the great blues artist. No one owns the song but her. She was also the original singer and writer of Hound Dog.
I don't believe she wrote either of those songs - certainly not 'Hound Dog'.
Mama Cass Elliot was in the audience
Beautiful reaction ❤😊
Janis=Queen of the Blues !!!!
React to summer time Janis Joplin
Please see work me lord , and summertim
Great reaction !! Janis went too soon...
You either have it or you don’t. She had it…
Janis voice is a musical instrument..
This is the concert where she was discovered
LIsten to more Janis!!!
How's that for a debut?
Legend. Rest In Peace Miss Janis
Note how out of tune Big Brother is.
Ball and chain reachin
Yes she amazing ❤
dont thin she gets it
27 years old
She’s always referred to “The Incomparable Janis Joplin”…so true
