BIG BROTHER AND THE HOLDING COMPANY - STEREO

Big Brother & the Holding Company's 1967 debut! Besides the album that introduced the world to Janis Joplin, Big Brother & the Holding Company's first release stands as one of the classic recordings of '60s rock. Joplin had added her fiery wail to the archetypal Haight-Ashbury acid-rock quintet only months before it entered the studio to make the album, and for the session she shares vocal duties with bassist Peter Albin and guitarist Sam Andrew. But, thanks to the LP's raging single, "Down On Me," it was immediately clear to radio audiences of the time that the Texas-born singer was a new force to be reckoned with.

KOZMIC BLUES - was Janis Joplin’s first solo Album after she left Big Brother and the Holding Company. The one big change from Big Brother was that this release centered around a horn section that received a very positive response when Janis toured Europe the Spring of this LP’s release. There was considerable turnover among the players pulled in for the sessions and considerable discontent as well. The best tracks on this Album resulted from a single session in June of 1969 - superbly delivered renditions of “One Good Man” and Little Girl Blue” with Mike Bloomfield on guitar. The Rogers & Hart Estates, however, absolutely loathed Joplin’s version of this song. Joplin changed the words somewhat and made a magnificent tear-jerker out of a song that was first performed by Doris Day.

When Janis Joplin died in October 1970 at t he early age of 27, thus involuntarily confirming the beatnik adage "live fast, love hard, die young," it was only a matter of time before she was crowned the "Queen of Rock." Of greater importance than this posthumous entry into rock 'n' roll's hall of fame is the recognition during her lifetime of her explosive vocal style, which – so Vogue – "turned the whole history of singing upside down." Joplin's discography is just as short and changeable as her life. After two LP releases with the standard "cast" of rock musicians in the band Big Brother And The Holding Company, with whose excellent musical support she obtained her first recording contract with Columbia Records in 1968, the company provided her with a group augmented with organ and winds. For those Woodstock fans whose ears are still ringing with the band's full, meaty wind sound and Janis' bluesy soul singing, this album is an absolute must.

Songs included are TRY JUST A LITTLE BIG HARDER - MAYBE - AS GOOD AS YOU’VE BEEN TO THIS WORLD - SOMEBODY TO LOVE - KOZMIC BLUES - WORK ME LORD. A must for any true Janis Joplin - Rock n Roll fan!!!

FAREWELL SONG - This Collection features Janis Joplin with Big Brother And The Holding Company, as well as live with The Kozmic Blues Band. There is also a tear down the walls cover of Etta James TELL MAMA with Full Tilt Boogie recorded live in Toronto. Other highlights include a studio recording of ONE NIGHT STAND (produced by Todd Rundgren) and a marvelous rendition of Sam Andrew’s poignant FAREWELL SONG, taken from a 1968 Winterland Show. Ending the LP is Joplin’s killer CATCH ME DADDY taken from a CHEAP THRILLS Session. This is one of Janis Joplin’s most inspired studio vocals and is tremendously interesting to hear the instrumental track that brought out such an incredible performance. Other songs included are MAGIC OF LOVE - MISER-N - HARRY - RAISE YOUR HAND - and a medley - AMAZING GRACE/HIGH HEELED SNEAKERS.

IN CONCERT - This Double LP Collection is from concerts with Big Brother and the Holding Company and Full Tilt Boogie - All Is Loneliness - with Big Brother was an inspirational vehicle for Joplin unlike any other and no other performance of this tune which conveys the terrifying loneliness is even remotely similar. The version here was recorded at a 1970 reunion with Big Brother and Janis“there ain’t no tv, no radio, no nothin’ man” simply rips your heart out. We are also treated to the improptu 12 bar blues of - Ego Rock - where Nick Gravenites and Janis toss blues lines back and forth in an affectionate but competitive repartee. Janis was looped during the outdoor gigs with Full Tilt - a lot of Tequila went down the hatch on the festival train that puffed its way across Canada in July of 1970. It was four months before Joplin died and her Calgary performance of - Ball and Chain - is inspired, brilliant, drunk, uncanny and frightening. It is like work from the other side. Also included on this LP are - Down On Me - Bye Bye Baby - Piece Of My Heart - Road Block - Flower In The Sun - a cover of Gershwin’s Summertime - Half Moon - Cosmic Blue - Move Over - Try Just A Little Bit Harder - Get It While You Can. That is exactly what you should do with this Audiophile Masterpiece.

JANIS -

For the longest time, this important piece of Janis's growth and history, was only available as a cassette. (And naturally, that is not available anymore, unless you find it used.) The "JANIS" AL;BUM was originally the SOUNDTRACK ALBUM for the movie JANIS. (A cool biography film, indispensible for Janis fans.) Only the second half of this recording, is really the movie soundtrack. There's some live cuts from the FESTIVAL EXPRESS Canadian tour, with FULL TILT BOOGY band, and a live cut from a local San Fransesco PBS music show, with BIG BROTHER, from early 1967. Other of her key songs are on that first LP, to complete that part of her superstar story. However, the REAL reason to buy this LP, is for what's on the FIRST LP. It's a long tape of songs, from Janis, and the WALLER CREEK BOYS, from late 1962- early 1963. There are also songs from 1965 when Janis sang with the DICK OXTOT JAZZ BAND, and a few folk songs, that Janis recorded very early. These songs include :TROUBLE IN MIND, WHAT GOOD CAN DRINKING DO, SILVER THREADS AND GOLDEN NEEDLES, MISSISSIPI RIVER, STEALIN, NO REASON FOR LIVIN, BLACK MOUNTAIN BLUES, WALK RIGHT IN, RIVER JORDAN, MARY JANE, KANSIS CITY BLUES, DADDY DADDY DADDY, C.C. RIDER, SAN FRANSESCO BAY BLUES, WININ BOY, CARELESS LOVE, I'LL DROWN IN MY OWN TEARS. The sound on these recordings are acceptable, especially considering the age, and historical value. (If you happen to have the 1966 rare live recording of BIG BROTHER, made just weeks after Janis joined the band, it's obvious Janis brought a few of these songs with her into BIG BROTHER's early set list.)  Hearing how JANIS developed her gift, that INCREDIBLE gift, is just as musically rewarding, as listening to the first BOB DYLAN LP, or the Beatle's ANTHOLOGY LP'S. If nothing else, it shows that Janis KNEW HER BLUES AND FOLK HERITAGE. She did not just join BIG BROTHER, and suddenly become a star overnight. So Listen to Janis, before the drugs, and loud rock music, made her start to scream and yell so much. Here is JANIS, a beautiful, aware, blossoming talent the likes of which has not been heard since.
