I love that song and I'm a big fan of Brittany Howard's vocal style (and would agree in general with the claim that she does a great job of conveying raw emotion in that song), but I'm pretty sure Brittany is using a more controlled technique (i.e., less destructive to the vocal chords technique) than the one Janis uses here and used in general in her performances.

      That's kind of a sad sentiment really. Think of what Janis could have done all these many years, what directions she might have gone. When young, I think its easy to think, 'burn all the matches now,' but as we age we realize how much lived experience adds to our own lives and to the lives around us. My 30s and 40 were way better than my 20s in many ways. Its a shame that Janis' addictions took her away from the world before getting to experience those evolutions.

      Much later, I realized that she couldn't be or sing any other way, and yes... I believe that she knew somewhere inside that she needed to put it out there now cause she didn't have too long.

    John Sebastian told this story in an interview years ago. Janis was on tour in the NY area and lost her voice. Her management found the ENT doctor for the NY Metropolitan Opera and sent her to him. He was a little old Italian man who didn't know Janis from Adam. He took one look at her throat and said "Young lady, I don't know what you do for a living, but you need to stop screaming and drinking so much!"

    I have a framed plate portrait of Janis at the CNE Grandstand in Toronto from June 28, 1970, which is where this performance comes from. Her evolution in her vocal prowess here, compared to Monterey Pop 1967, is more refined, yet still heartbreaking, beautifully raw and thrillingly spontaneous. Her opening scream on Cry Baby is still one of the most underappreciated rock screams ever. Janis is equal parts divine inspiration and cautionary story...

      [BendsMusic] I don't mean to upset you but "she would be preaching drugs" in the 21st century!! I grew up with this music and when "acid rock" hit the airwaves it left me cold. Oh, and there is a reason they called it "acid rock". Many performers overdosed NOT on heroin or coke but on LSD and other mind altering drugs. People like Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and the idiot professor who pushed these kind of drugs, Timothy Leary. Got his son involved in that drug culture and then watched him commit suicide. Oh, Timothy Leary, former Harvard professor.

    The late 60s/late 70s were the best years of rock. I’m thankful I was there for it. There are a few other female rockers I love: Ann Wilson, Grace Slick, and the queen, Stevie Nicks. The music today with studio “effects” like auto tune ruin the voice “personality”. All singers have to do today is look the part. Sound techs can do the rest. RIP Janis. You’re up there in amazing company. Say hey to Toby.

    The ending of this live version makes me spiral, how does someone sing this way? It's superhuman and heartbreakingly raw.
    Her grit in her falsetto makes it sound like she's in chest but it's so high! Truly one of the best performances anyone has ever done.

    men had been singing blues for decades, and then she came...and said "what the hell men know about the blues...", this is expression!
    She talks to me like Edit Piaf, I realy feel her...

    It was so wonderful living in the '60s because of Janis and the other amazing artists of the period. Love your reaction.

    Oh Lord, when she walked on that stage and started to sing your whole body exploded. No one will match her singing. No one can reach her soul. You just can't find it. Another one lost way too soon.

    Janis was the real deal. Unabashedly authentic. As a kid, I was turned on to her a little more than a year before she left us, In the time since, I am yet to find another singer who reveals her true emotional self that you can make her feel her pain as if it was yours. A couple have gotten into the zip code but Janis has never been topped IMHO. Her imperfections and honesty was her beauty.

    When someone expressed concern to her about harming her voice, Janis said, “Why should I hold back now and sound mediocre, just so I can sound mediocre twenty years from now?”

    Janis was perfectly capable of singing "normally". I've heard recordings. She just didn't wanna do it that way. She fell in love with this style.

    I am a music fanatic and listen to all genres from all eras. The only person I rank higher than Janis Joplin for sheer vocal ability is Patsy Cline. The sheer rawness of Joplin can compete with any death metal growl (and yes that is a compliment.) I place Janis at the same level as Billie Holiday in Blues music which honestly does not get any better. Listening to both brings tears to my eyes. Along with the Jim Morrison display, the highlight of my visit to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame was seeing Joplin's car. Joplin was stolen from us way too soon.

    I gotta say Beth, I rarely have the same level of reaction that a reaction/analysis channel does, but damn am I right there with you on this. Janis was a VERY special case, and definitely one of those stars that burned so hot you knew it couldn't last. It's tragic, but she left one hell of a permanent impression.
    I know you've done a video on Coheed before, but given that you are a vocal coach, I'd be curious if you'd do a comparison of Claudio's earlier work vs the newer stuff. Something like A Favor House Atlantic vs Liars Club. He's done a lot of voice work because he almost destroyed his voice during a particularly intensive tour, and he started taking his voice more seriously after that.

    joplin made art. she threw everything of her into her art. she burned the candle not only on both but on all ends including ones people did not know existed. pure rock music does not need perfectionism, it needs all the emotions.
    joplin was all emotion. that made her a legend, for most people, with the first song they ever heard of her.
    ronny james dio was a singer god. he put his warmth into his music with perfect technique.
    janis was a singer god. she put her soul into her music. any way she could. no matter the cost.

    Roger Daltrey of The Who said when performing live he would at times go for a note that he knew he wasn't able to reach. It was in the moment and he knew the audience was with him emotionally. That a brutally honest art.

  • @realityfuze42

    Love your reactions and analyses. I have always thought of Janis' use or the rawness and what others might call "imperfections" like guitarists of the same era (Hendrix and others) not always sounding clean or technically perfect and using heavy distortion and feedback as PART of the instrument. Music is not always meant to be "clean" - sometimes it is just about raw expression of pain, joy, anger, whatever.

    Janis wore her soul like a blanket trying to protect her from pain, hurt, anger, & even love! This woman was one of a kind, & sadly missed by everyone who loved & understood her music ❤ 💚 💙 She truly was a gift that was only with us for a short time, but what a glorious time it was!!! Thank you both, for such a thoughtful reaction ❤ 💚 💙

    There is NO ONE that can touch Janis & there NEVER will be. It's pure, raw energy...the kind you get when you listen to a garage band (if they still even do that). I'll take my music from the 60s & 70s ANY day cos, it was REAL...not at all like the garbage they call "music" now.
