I really can't explain why, but every time i hear her voice scream out "take another little piece of my heart now, baby," tears start uncontrollably streaming down my face. She was truly one of a kind and has never been replicated. Please please please do a video on Rush!!
Mr. Beat, could you please make a video about Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, or Little Richard? They were key performers and Rock or Rocknroll would be nothing without them. Thanks!
I've been watching your history channel for quite a while but I'm just discovering your music channel. Very well done, and I'm a Janis fan, but a lot of the details I didn't know about. I'm so excited for this!
Janis is such an interesting person. I would encourage anyone who has not seen her in the video for Monterey Pop doing ball and chain to do so now. And then go and find Kozmic blues. Among others. Janis is a force and one of a kind. Amazing. She was drinking buddies with Jimmy Page when he was in town and they were great friends. I read about this as a teenager who was a total Zep head in the mid 70s I do remember the Cheap Thrills album cover. My brother and I were rock fans since I was in first grade with the beatles. And mom let us be so. As a kid of 10 with my brother we would look at album covers in the music stores and Cheap Thrills always stood out.
matt, i'm from brazil, and I love your videos! you forgot to mention joplin's friendship with my favorite cartoonist, robert crumb - even the author of the cheap thrills album cover :)
The first recognized member of the 27 club was actually Robert Johnson, a blues guitarist who was arguably the most influential guitarist of all time. Influencing Hendrix, Clapton, Muddy Waters, BB King, and many more. You should do a video on him!!
If you want to learn more about Janis Joplin, I highly recommend the book 'Buried Alive: The Biography of Janis Joplin' - it was written by someone familiar with Joplin herself (having worked on Albert's staff) and features a lot of interesting details and personal conversations - it's also a period piece from 1973, and is pretty readable for a biography.
She was born the same year as my mom..who recently turned 80..yay mom...wish Janis could of stayed with us a little longer..God Bless to all of those in the Struggle. ✌️
I didn't knew Janis Joplin before but after watching your video, I really like her, Thank you for such a great content. And a small request can you make a video about Pearl Jam ? Have a beautiful day❤️
@@standrew131 Guess I'm just not into his folk that much. His voice to me doesn't help his efforts. Liked his words and message with Don't think twice, Hurricane is good. I can do without Highlands. Maybe reaching a bit by saying the word terrible. Can't deny his greatness.
Great job. As far as other bands/singers you should do, I don’t know what kind of musical tastes you have. Some ideas: The Who, Fleetwood Mac (starting with the Peter Green era), The Police, John Coltrane or Miles Davis (if you like jazz), Cream…….so many bands, so little time!
Good video. Janis Joplin is a 60s artist I have enjoyed listening to but never knew all that much about before. I liked previous comments suggesting Bob Dylan and Chuck Berry, and I might add the Rolling Stones and The Who to that list.
Hi sir Love the content. Extremely well put together. Could there be an episode on the short lived, bit meteoric rise of the band WHAM! Have a great day
Great videos!I have watched and enjoyed them all. Could you do: The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, The Velvet Underground, The Sex Pistols, The Stone Roses, Oasis, My Bloody Valentine and Spacemen 3 / Spiritualized please?
Great short doc Matt - well written and produced - lots of photos I've never seen. and I've been a Joplin fan since 1969 - but although Albert Grossman managed Janis Joplin and Bob Dylan - Jimi Hendrix was managed by Michael Jeffrey and Chas Chandler and kudos to you for reading Myra Friedman's book on Janis - my favorite of the many books Janis has inspired
Kosmic Blues is my favorite but hard to select just one. What was left out was her 10th year High School Reunion and her San Francisco home is now a Museum. I was 9 years old when she passed and I can tell you which direction I was facing and what I was standing next to. Honest about herself, including mistakes she remain real and relatable. I Love and Miss Her!
Another great video!! Could you by chance do a rolling stone video, there are other ‘history of the stones’ videos out there, but I can’t be bothered to sit down and watch a 40 minute documentary 😂
Thank you for this! I am of course familiar with Janis, but only for her name and some certain songs. It's always interesting to hear the story behind the artist. One band that seems to have been influential for many artists, but seems to be in the shadow of so many other bands is Sparks. Their history is really cool, maybe one for you to dig in to. And to make things even better, they're still active recordin new material and touring the world 😀
Is it weird that the only two people I can think of with the surname Joplin are both musical figures born in East Texas? And they aren't related? Mr. Beat you should do a video on Miles Davis.
The algorithm introduced me to your channel today and now I'm hooked. Looking to see if you've covered Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention and Weird Al Yankovic which seem strangely familiar.
Mr. Beat, you should definitely do a brief history of Stevie Wonder in a future video! I want to know how he became an R&B singer since he was born blind.
This was a great choice for a singer. But, I know I keep saying this again and again, please to a video on Elvis Costello, he has an interesting history.
If I could go back in time I'd go back to any year from 1966 to 1978 just to checkout legends in concert at Winterland in SF. Sadly that place closed about 8 years before I was born.
good video. Couple very small mistakes - Grossman never managed Hendrix, and Janis & Kozmic Blues Band were not on the Madison Square Garden bill with Tina and the Stones. She was just backstage watching when she ran on to do the duet with Tina.
The popular song “American Pie” by Don McLean is thought to reference Janis Joplis’ death with the lines: “I met a girl who sang the blues and I asked her for some happy news. But she just smiled and turned away.”
Love Janis I couldnt pick a favorite but love Piece of my heart Get it while you can One night stand down on me (live version) summertime me & Bobby Mcgee, my baby miseryn maybe, cry baby Ball & chain (cheap thrills) catch me daddy, move over, farewell song
Who’s here after hearing that Shailene Woodley will produce and star as the legendary late soul singer Janis Joplin in a finally-long waited musical drama biopic film about her life & career? Hope they name it “Piece of My Heart” or maybe “Pearl”. Give the film a 2hrs or maybe 3hrs long if needed. Who should direct, write & produce the film? Which studios should distribute the film? 20th Century Studios (formally 20th Century Fox), Fox Searchlight Pictures, Universal 🌎 Pictures, Paramount 🏔️ Pictures, Warner Bros Pictures, or Sony Pictures/ Columbia Pictures or TriStar Pictures? I sure do wish & hope singer-songwriter Pink, at least, appear in the film. Probably playing a different character since she’s also a huge Janis fan herself. Maybe she could play her mother at least.
Hey, Mr. Beat! How about you do a brief history of Selena Quintanilla? She was known for her best songs such as Dreaming of You, I Could Fall in Love, Amor Prohibido, Como la Flor, and Bidi Bidi Bom Bom. Can you do a video on her, please?
What is your favorite Janis Joplin song? Also, what did I leave out that I should have put in this video?
cry baby. 100 percent!
@@ClockworkMusics A darn good one. I forgot to say mine! It's "Me and Bobby McGee"
@@mattbeatgoesonme too 😊
awesome @@mattbeatgoeson
I don't know anything about her
Janis Joplin is a musical figure I never really knew much about, but thanks for getting me more educated on her!
It's why I'm here!
Man I sure was hoping for 1 last video this summer. Thank you for making that happen.
Hope you enjoyed it!
I really can't explain why, but every time i hear her voice scream out "take another little piece of my heart now, baby," tears start uncontrollably streaming down my face. She was truly one of a kind and has never been replicated.
Please please please do a video on Rush!!
Janis and Tom Jones' live perfomance of "raise your hand" is insanely fun and both of their voices are amazing. I just love it
Best singer ever I first discovered her singing Ball n Chain on the Monterey Pop Festival blu ray set.
That's how MANY discovered her. :)
That's the best singer ever? I feel sorry for you. Take meds.
your videos are always amazing and well made i would love if you do one on jimi hendrix and frank zappa and the doors
Thanks for the kind words and great suggestions!
@@mattbeatgoeson ❤️

She was drinking buddies with Jimmy Page when he was in town and they were great friends.

Janis Joplin is one of my mom's favorite singers.
Well dang, show your mom this video then. :)
everyones happy when the beat goes on uploads a new video on music. :).
Such an incredible artist. Thanks for teaching me more about her!

ok
I was hoping for a brief history of the rolling stones but this is a really good video good job
The most iconic unforgettable voice in music history.
Thank you Mr Beat for all these wonderful music documents - they are fun and stuff 👍🎈🛀
I was waiting for this video🎉
A great singer that left us way too soon.
My next video suggestion
after Michael:
The Temptations!
🕺🏾🕺🏾🕺🏾🕺🏾🕺🏾
Nicee
@@mattbeatgoesoncan you do
Nickleback… or imagine dragons or the clash or any 4 band members you think of
She was born the same year as my mom..who recently turned 80..yay mom...wish Janis could of stayed with us a little longer..God Bless to all of those in the Struggle. ✌️
I didn't knew Janis Joplin before but after watching your video, I really like her, Thank you for such a great content. And a small request can you make a video about Pearl Jam ? Have a beautiful day❤️
Great video ! Could you do one about the Runaways ? It would be the occasion to continue talking about women rocking !
Bob Dylan? Widely regarded as one of the greatest songwriters of all time and the only singer/songwriter to have received a Nobel Prize.
I thought he was a terrible song writer. Also. A Nobel prize means you are popular with the media. Look at the winners.
@@ratdad48have u ever listened to him or you just don’t like his voice
@@standrew131 Guess I'm just not into his folk that much. His voice to me doesn't help his efforts. Liked his words and message with Don't think twice, Hurricane is good. I can do without Highlands. Maybe reaching a bit by saying the word terrible. Can't deny his greatness.
@@ratdad48he's definitely not a terrible writer
@@Bob-zs8lb Ok 👍
My favorite performance is “Ball and Chain”…Recorded live at the Fillmore….From the “Cheap Thrills” Album….
I heard ball and chain before i knew her story and wondered why it made me so emotional. Once i learned of her life, i understood.
Never been within a minute of posting before!
Thanks for being here early!
Great job. As far as other bands/singers you should do, I don’t know what kind of musical tastes you have. Some ideas: The Who, Fleetwood Mac (starting with the Peter Green era), The Police, John Coltrane or Miles Davis (if you like jazz), Cream…….so many bands, so little time!
Port Arthur was my party town. Love Janis!!! My favorite is Mercedes Benz ❤❤
Truly lived the sex drugs and rock n' roll lifestyle. Great musician
i think you should cover oasis, stone roses, buddy holly and crickets, the doors and the rolling stones
Good video. Janis Joplin is a 60s artist I have enjoyed listening to but never knew all that much about before. I liked previous comments suggesting Bob Dylan and Chuck Berry, and I might add the Rolling Stones and The Who to that list.

Thanks for the kind words and suggestion!
The fact that Jimmy Johnson and Janis Joplin went to high school together blows my mind.
I need a 3 hour long bob dylan video mr. beat!!
My fellow Port Arthur girl, her car is in the Gulf Coast Museum of SE Texas, in our home town.
It's on my bucket list to see that car!
Great videos!I have watched and enjoyed them all. Could you do: The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, The Velvet Underground, The Sex Pistols, The Stone Roses, Oasis, My Bloody Valentine and Spacemen 3 / Spiritualized please?
Watching this while drinking Southern Comfort. Random, but good choice. 😂
Can you make a vídeo about Paramore? They have a interesting history and it’s my favourite band! I enjoy your channel a lot, cheers from Portugal!
Thanks for the supportive words and great suggestion.
Great short doc Matt - well written and produced - lots of photos I've never seen. and I've been a Joplin fan since 1969 - but although
Albert Grossman managed Janis Joplin and Bob Dylan - Jimi Hendrix was managed by Michael Jeffrey and Chas Chandler and kudos to you for reading Myra Friedman's book on Janis - my favorite of the many books Janis has inspired
Love this video I didn’t know a lot of this info I love her a lot amazing rock singer
My favorite Joplin Tune is "Summertime"
This was a great video! I have to say, it would be great if you covered The Doors, or even some British Invasion bands like The Kinks or The Zombies
I never knew about this! This was a really interesting video! Would love if you made one about Metallica…
My Numero Uno of all time 🎉
Kosmic Blues is my favorite but hard to select just one. What was left out was her 10th year High School Reunion and her San Francisco home is now a Museum.

Can you do an episode on Elvis Presley one day? The King of Rock and Roll's history is important to cover
lets gooo i love these videos now i have another one to watch
Well I appreciate you watching. :)
Another great video!! Could you by chance do a rolling stone video, there are other ‘history of the stones’ videos out there, but I can’t be bothered to sit down and watch a 40 minute documentary 😂
Or a video on the who would be nice
Ball and Chain at Monterey is one of the greatest live performances ever!!!! Of course this is from my very unprofessional opinion.
Can you please do a video about The Doors
PLEASE can you do the rolling stones? their history is so complex and I feel like you would do an awesome job
Mr. Beat, do you think you'll ever do a video on Steely Dan?
CAN YOU DO A BREIF HISTORY ON OASIS PLEASE it’s one of my fav bands love ur vids btw
Thank you for this! I am of course familiar with Janis, but only for her name and some certain songs. It's always interesting to hear the story behind the artist.
One band that seems to have been influential for many artists, but seems to be in the shadow of so many other bands is Sparks. Their history is really cool, maybe one for you to dig in to. And to make things even better, they're still active recordin new material and touring the world 😀
Ohhh the beat goes on, after the thrill of playing is gone
Rest In Peace Janis Joplin, She's a Lengend.
Knew her name, and nothing else, so this was a really interesting video. Thanks Mr Beat!
Is it weird that the only two people I can think of with the surname Joplin are both musical figures born in East Texas? And they aren't related?
Mr. Beat you should do a video on Miles Davis.
I really think you should do a brief history on 'The Eagles' Best selling American band of all time
NICE!! New episode!!!
Heck yeah
Can you do one on XTC? They have an interesting history.
I would love a video on The Eagles!
Well my parents would absolutely love that.
@@mattbeatgoeson Do it for them if not me lol!
The algorithm introduced me to your channel today and now I'm hooked. Looking to see if you've covered Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention and Weird Al Yankovic which seem strangely familiar.
How about doing a video on Chris Cornell/Soundgarden/Audioslave.
You gotta do ac/dc
I would love to
Mr. Beat, you should definitely do a brief history of Stevie Wonder in a future video! I want to know how he became an R&B singer since he was born blind.
Can you make a video about Kraftwerk. Featuring a german band would spruce up this format
Make a video about Depeche Mode please.
A highly underrated band.
This was a great choice for a singer.
But, I know I keep saying this again and again, please to a video on Elvis Costello, he has an interesting history.
Eventually absolutely. However, I have some bigger names to cover before then. (like that OTHER Elvis)
@@mattbeatgoeson Indeed
I love Janis her voice is a style of her own. Love u janis ❤❤❤
I think you should do a brief history on Oasis
Can you do The Jimi Hendrix Experience?
It's been on my list for awhile!
make a brief history of the doors
Wow The Video was About 3 Weeks Ago!.Do You History of Alternative Music From (1977-Present) Thanks for 3 week ago Video!
You should a brief history of the smashing pumpkins
Hello, could you make a brief history of the doors?
I know you see me
The final tour ended please do one on the Grateful Dead
If I could go back in time I'd go back to any year from 1966 to 1978 just to checkout legends in concert at Winterland in SF. Sadly that place closed about 8 years before I was born.
a classic musician!
I love the Janis version of Buffy Sainte-Marie’s Cod’ine. Sadly prophetic.
Please do The Beach Boys I’ve been asking for so long 😭
good video. Couple very small mistakes - Grossman never managed Hendrix, and Janis & Kozmic Blues Band were not on the Madison Square Garden bill with Tina and the Stones. She was just backstage watching when she ran on to do the duet with Tina.
I have one issue I need to point out. Albert Grossman never managed Jimi Hendrix. He managed Bob Dylan. Just an Fyi
Can you make a video about the History of Elton John? I think a lot of people would enjoy it
do one on the doors
The popular song “American Pie” by Don McLean is thought to reference Janis Joplis’ death with the lines: “I met a girl who sang the blues and I asked her for some happy news. But she just smiled and turned away.”
I'd love a video on Bob Marley, with the movie coming out in January.
Love Janis I couldnt pick a favorite but love Piece of my heart Get it while you can One night stand down on me (live version) summertime me & Bobby Mcgee, my baby miseryn maybe, cry baby Ball & chain (cheap thrills) catch me daddy, move over, farewell song
