I know some here will disagree, but Janis Joplin was very talented. She left us to soon.

"Freedom is just another word, for nothing left to lose".
I think Kris Kristofferson wrote the song.

Nearly wrecked my car once when I heard “piece of my heart” being sung and realized it was not Janis. (Faith Hill)

Had to check that out. The Faith Hill is certainly...peppy.

You could definitely hear her influence on Robert Plant’s singing on the early Zeppelin albums.

Jimmy Johnson was a jocko who tormented her because she was a beatnik in 1959-1960 Texas.
To: DallasBiff
Yes Janis was talented, but she was street meat. She lived the way she wanted. Had she survived that lifestyle she would have just been another of those we shout down so much today whenever they open their leftist pie holes, and say something really........left. Talent be damned that whisky, and those drugs will git ya every time.

Some people who are really good at singing the Blues have happy lives. She wasn’t one of them.

Kristofferson wrote it and got booed off stage at the Isle of Wight Festival. It is in the film.
There’s a good movie with Kristofferson and others called Cisco Pike. The ending is weak but the overall journey is good.
