Great reaction! Check out Janis Joplin Work Me Lord Live in Stockholm 1969. Many people seem to sleep on this one but it’s one of her best performances. Good luck!
There are talented people everywhere, in every country, singing in every possible language. Gifted ones doing so without auto tunes, or any other technical gizmos... And there's Janis : the one girl, which, besides having a raw, bluesie, raspy voice that makes you call for your mother in every song she sings, tears her chest out, grabs her heart and wrenches it out, just to gift it to you...
Ball & Chain, live at the 1967 Monterey Festival. She had performed already and knocked everybody's socks off so they arranged for her to perform again and filmed her this time. I was a teen-ager in 1970 in Toledo, OH, 15. We took off to go see her at the 1970 Monterey Festival. Made it all the way to LA, had 2 weeks to go till the Fest and she overdosed 2 weeks prior. We still went but it wasn't as much fun as we hoped for.
The best of us. My high school fave. She was one of the 27s. I was heart broken at her passing like a gut punch. She really was too precious for our world. My fave is Piece of My Heart.
Janis had one of the most unique & powerful voices with a lot of grit. Sadly we lost her too soon. She was only 27 when she died. She had a lot of great songs in her short life such as "Me & Bobby McGee", "Piece Of My Heart", "Down On Me", "Little Girl Blue", "Cry Baby", "Try (Just A Little Bit Harder)", "Get It While You Can", "Bye, Bye Baby", "Move Over", "Mercedes Benz" etc.
Speaking of unreal voice and lyrics, you really want to check out " Cry Baby" live, in Toronto, if memory serves... Janis gets you goosebumps for starters and then gets you to jump out of your skin without ever realising it... Girl's a legend.
There is nothing like seeing and hearing Janis live. She takes it to a whole other level! Some other suggestions, all live video: Cry Baby (Toronto), Maybe (The Music Scene), Work Me Lord (Stockholm), Get It While You Can, Move Over, To Love Somebody (all on The Dick Cavett Show), just to name a few others. Love Janis! ❤️
I loved your reaction ! . Janis Joplin is my favorite. And this song is amazing. The band is phenomenal . I really like your channel. Good luck to you!
@@setonhillstudios If I wasn't disabled and so damn poor right now I'd buy you guys some coffees or something. Best I can do is watch, sub and comment right now, brother. God bless.
Janis, forever and always. I like how you found her -- knew she was good, have heard a few of her songs, but never "got" her. That was me, and wow, do I get her now! I prefer her less-played songs, like "Misery'n", "Turtle Blues", "Trust Me". That last song she recorded on the same day she did Bobby McGee. She and her band first heard, learned, rehearsed, and recorded it in a single day, a few days before she died. Which is why there are no live recordings of it. Such talent was a gift to the rest of us, from G-d.
Janis voice was hauntingly beautiful and powerful. It's unmistakably unique. Once you hear it, you know straight away it's her. One might not like the music style, but nobody can deny she had talent both as poet and singer.
@@setonhillstudios There's a movie called The Rose with Bette Midler that a lot of people say it's about Janis's life, although it isn't recognised as such by the critics, movie director and the writer of the script. I guess it's up to personal interpretation if it is or not.
@@setonhillstudios Hey there. Meant to say Monterrey Pops. (she got discovered there "Ball and Chain" phenomenal, unbelievable. Mama Cass Elliott is shown too much in that film, but ok. )
@@setonhillstudios Hey I love your channel. Something tells me you'd like the clip from "King Creole" --- It's Elvis Pressley ("Trouble")) but better than that at the beginning of the movie credits -- Elvis and "Kitty White" singing about crawfish and whatnot. But the best best clip you will ever find is in that movie, wher he sings "Trouble" Where Walter Mtheiu is there with his girl (in the movie ya hear?) and Elvis has to sing "Ya Lookin' for Trouble? Ya Came ta the right place!" IT IS A PHENOMONAL SCENE AND EVEN IF YOU DON'T EVER PLAY IT I WANT YOU TO SEE IT. "King Creole"
Janice was a staple. Never had opportunity to see her live. Her music resonated. Even in our small town of Prescott Arizona. ( at the time) Unfortunately another member of the 27 Club. Which claimed many at that age involved with heroin use. Prescott offered an obscure place to hide away from the public. Although there were movies produced there. Like Billy Jack where I'm in the courthouse fight scene. And Bless the Beasts and the Children. (Also a Karen Carpenter theme song ) Although I'm on horseback rounding up buffalo which took place on another ranch outside Sedona. In late 60s she was rumored to be vacationing there. Her mother died there, and buried at Mountain View Cemetery just 5 mi. from our 1800 + acre historical ranch on Willow Lake. It's where I grew up. The ranch is now a large subdivision.😢 Big contrast from when the ranch existed. With very little around we were between the Yavapai reservation (Most all my friends were there) And the other side was the horsemen School of James Arness. Ranch also took in half the 400 ac lake Shoreline. It was there I learned if you want something you have to work for it. Sorry for more memory surfacing. Now that I brought her up Have you listened to Karen Carpenter? There is a music video of bless the beasts in children that highlights the Prescott area. 🚜🤠🐂
Janis was the best, period. Cry Baby live is the best video on the internet, bar none. Even without the vocals, the band here is outstanding, I love the music to this one, so haunting.
'Take another piece of my heart'. Janis has more soul than any before or past. A duet with Robert Plant, in his prime, would have been insane. We did get Tom Jones and Janis, but she's on another level.
Her first big hit was on her only studio album, which was released several months after she died. It is a more controlled rendition of a Kris Kristopher on song, "Me and Bobby McGee".
Janis blew us away back then. No one else like her, then or now! The 60s and 70s were an incredible time for music! You either could do it live or you couldn't and she ripped it up time after time! Others at that time were Jefferson Airplane with the voice of Grace Slick, Heart with Ann Wilson, Linda Ronstadt (sweet but powerful too), Kenny Loggins (wrote Footloose) with "Sweet Reunion" and so many others. Dive in, the water is wonderful!!
So many great names in that list and we’ve covered quite a few of those here on the channel! We are always looking to discover and learn more about music and the artists that paved the way for musicians today! Thanks so much for stopping by and hanging out! 😄
Janis is hands down my favorite female vocalist. You should react to Work Me Lord and Maybe live. But perhaps stsrt with Ball and Chain live from Monterey Pop Festival. That's where she was basically discovered and blew the audience away, especially Mama Cass from The Mamas and Papas.
@@setonhillstudios , yes she is. I grew up in the 80s and while everyone was into New Kids on the Block, I was into Janis, Jim Morrison from The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Deep Purple, Etta James, etc.
Funny story, My oldest daughter would get pissed at us and storm off to the cellar and then crank up some Janis. The funny part was she was playing my cassettes.
Listen to: Ball and chain live from monterey pop festival 1967; Tell mama live 1970, Maybe, kozmic blues, cry baby, piece of my heart, raise your hand live with Tom Jones, work me lord live in Stockholm 1969, there are so many and none disappoint. She is the best.❤
She died October 4, 1970 at 27, making her a member of the 27 Club. Celebrities who died at 27 are Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix, Amy Winehouse, Jim Morrison, Robert Johnson, and Brian Jones.
If you like Janis then you have to check out Beth Hart. You will be blown away by her performances. Here is one with Joe Bonamassa. Beth Hart -"I'd Rather Go Blind" th-cam.com/video/UEHwO_UEp7A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=YXzBGCqgATraqc21

Appreciate all the recommendations! She is absolutely phenomenal! Loved this performance so much! ❤️
I also suggest:

-'Little Girl Blue' and 'Raise Your Hand - Tom Jones Show
"Ball and Chain" at Monterey Pop Festival
I absolutely love your reaction to Janis
Thank you so much! 😁
Studio version of her song "Maybe" is a must listen. Beyond words.

Daughter sang Mercedes benz at her 8th grade talent show. They loved it😊
She was one of a kind. Won’t happen again. RIP beautiful soul. ❤️🙏⭐️
Crazy talented! Absolutely loved this performance!
October 4, 1970 she passed away. She was only 27. She wasn't on the music scene for long, but she made her mark on history. Her nickname was Pearl.
Janis and Tom Jones, Raise Your Hands! Two absolute legends having the time of their lives.
I’ll have to check it out!

This was definitely incredible and I can’t wait to dig into more of her tunes! Her voice is unreal and she has so much soul! Thanks for hanging out!
I love your channel.
Really appreciate that! Means alot to know the hard work is paying off and people on the other end of the screen are enjoying it! 😄

She is truly incredible and I can’t wait to hear more from her! So much emotion and soul! 🔥

One of my favorites is Get it While you Can, live version. Love her, love the message. Ty

Yes....Stockholm performance only.....in top form here
Thanks so much for all the recommendations and swinging by!
Janis, Pearl album
She died October 4, 1970 at 27, making her a member of the 27 Club. Celebrities who died at 27 are Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix, Amy Winehouse, Jim Morrison, Robert Johnson, and Brian Jones.
Please do her work me lord live in Stockholm performance!
I’ll have to check it out!
Alcohol and drugs. For a fictitious movie about her you should watch Bette Midler in The Rose.
You need some Doobie Brothers or Frank Zappa or Leon Russell. Talk about range........
I got some Doobie Brothers here on the channel! Amazing! 🔥🔥
If you like Janis then you have to check out Beth Hart. You will be blown away by her performances. Here is one with Joe Bonamassa.
Beth Hart -"I'd Rather Go Blind"

Chicken Shack - I'd rather go blind...
We’ve actually covered that here on the channel! It’s UNREAL! Go to our homepage and you can find it under the playlist ‘Solo Artists.’
Cry Baby LIVE
Cry Baby live
i have wondered wheither her drug use and alcohol use had any impact on the raspiness level. Just curious.
Great point…..I guess we will never know. Whatever created that wonderful voice I ain’t complaining! 🤣 She did have such a unique voice though!
Cry Baby studio version
Thanks for the suggestion and swinging by!
