When you see someone like Cass Eliot mesmerized you know it's something special.

[@davidhapka5410]

Yes indeed. I've seen this performance many times and I'm always struck by Mama Cass' reaction at the end.

[@webbtrekker534]

This was at the Monetary Pop Festival. Jimmie Hendrix was on the bill as well. That makes this summer of 1967. I was still in the Navy at that time.

"It was about singing to your souls" Yes she was definitely singing to our souls.

[@joel65913]

Honey she's living that song all the way down to her soul and vibrating with emotion. That's why they kept showing her feet and how the music was coursing through her. Geraldine Page (a famous and acclaimed stage and screen actress, also an Oscar winner in case you're not familiar with her name) went to see Janis in concert then went backstage to tell her that most performers gave a lot of themselves in their performances but Janis gave EVERYTHING.

[@texaseagle3484]

Port Arthur, TX favorite daughter...RIP Janis. The close up of the lady in the audience is Mama Cass from The Mama's and the Papas. This was early in Janis' career and Mama Cass said she had heard so much about her she had to see for herself....she was totally shocked. Unfortunately, drug addiction led to an overdose and took Janis from us far too soon. If you guys are gonna do more of her....Bobby Magee is a great one.

Yes, and she also claimed Bessie Smith as a major influence. When money started coming in she made sure a proper headstone was placed on Bessie Smith's previously unmarked grave. It reads "THE GREATEST BLUES SINGER IN THE WORLD WILL NEVER STOP SINGER. BESSIE SMITH 1895-1937"

"Piece of my Heart" (Studio version) and "Me and Bobby McGee" She died before it was released. Written by Kris Kristofferson. It would become her only solo number one single. Kristofferson didn’t hear Joplin’s version of his song until right after she died in late 1970. “Paul Rothchild, her producer, asked me to stop by his office and listen to this thing she had cut. Afterwards, I walked all over L.A., just in tears. I couldn’t listen to the song without really breaking up,” Kristofferson said.

One of a handful of absolutely legendary performances. Pearl was an original and there has never been one like her since.

[@matthewalvey4760]

Hippy days were allot about free-form expression and emotion as opposed to technical perfection and pre-planning everything. Jamming and cutting loose, often on psychadelics and pot. It was a WHOLE vibe that doesn't exist anymore at all.

[@scapito]

It exists, many famous bands that thrive on improv music, most are touring live every summer. Dead & Company (includes remaining members of the grateful dead plus some guests like John Mayer), Phish, Widespread Panic, My Morning Jacket, Modeski Martin & Wood, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Robert Randolph, Bela Fleck, Blues Traveler, Blackberry Smoke, Buckethead, Les Claypool, Donovan Frankenwriter, Gov't Mule....

[@ForeverDC_]

Janis gave 110% every single time. It always came from deep down inside. Janis was a blues bomb! The media would talk her down about her looks and were always jerks to her. She was always real. Unfortunately, she is one of the 27 club...young talent gone at 27! It's good to see the younger generation listening to her music and bringing her back. If you love real blues that hits your soul, then listen to more Janis! Pearl was her last album and one that showed she was just getting started! Love You Janis!

[@markbean1417]

I wish JJ would have lived long enough to have had a really good band behind her. Her voice and passion are incredible, there's no doubt about it. With a good band, she would have been unbelievable.

Natural talent.... Real pain... Her box set is fantastic.... She had 3 different bands I believe in her short career...

Right off the top-it’s Janis Joplin AND Big Brother &The Holding Company. Janis Joplin is amazing, period. But Big Brother & The Holding Company, the band the she joined, is amazing in their own right. They are always left out.

[@masterofsparkshwy6974]

I always liked the name " Full Tilt Boogie " even though Big Brother and the Holding co. were a better band. I told my guys " hell even their name is cooler than our band....."

[@Cissy2cute]

I still like when she was with the band. Later, when she soloed with those big horns, it wasn't the same. She didn't need horns at all; in fact, I think they were a distraction.

[@ericynot]

Janis was a tormented soul who expressed her pain through her music. She was an smart, sensitive, unpopular kid in high school in Port Arthur, Texas (a working class town on the Gulf Coast) where she was bullied for being quirky and not sufficiently pretty. After high school she moved to Austin where she went to UT and frequently sang at a dive called Threadgills (which I remember for their fantastic fried chicken livers and Shiner Beer). From Austin Janis headed to the Bay Area, pursued her blues music full time, got more deeply into drugs, became a superstar after the Monterrey Pop Festival in 1967, and succumbed to her demons in 1970. Though she was unique and extraordinarily gifted, the money and fame and pharmaceuticals simply weren't enough to make her feel loved. RIP, Janis. You're a powerful reminder that we all need to be kinder to one another.

I'm seeing Brad's arm move up and I'm saying "don't you dare pause in the middle of Janis goin' off" lol. I heard Janis say in an interview that she doesn't sing over the top of the music like a lot of other female singers of her time. She reckoned you have to get under the music. She just loses herself in it and sings with her whole body. I love the way she was always herself - totally real, no pretensions, no makeup even.

[@davidpahlka6301]

I can't believe I hadn't commented on this song to you before. You see, I wasn't at Monterey Pop in June 1967 but I was invited to go by none other than David Crosby and Graham Nash. I met them at Hippie Hill in Golden Gate Park in S.F. We all passed around a joint. They came over because I was wearing a black velveteen shirt with orange satin sleeves and David thought I was in a band. I said "No, but I do want to be a writer." I may have said I wrote poetry. I used to see Janis and Big Brother at the Avalon and Fillmore ballrooms all the time. I was told Big Brother lived a block and a half from my Apt. on Page St. but a music writer from Toronto who specializes in the '60's proved me wrong. They lived two blocks up from me on Page St. itself. This was her signature song. Everyone would be yelling at the band to do it, but of course it always came last. Never have I heard her do it so well. It didn't come across well on her studio recording. Maybe she wasn't consistent in her performances. She did fall off the stage once she got so excited. Always she had a can of Colt 45 or some Southern Comfort. A Chinese friend tried to sell her pot and like what my other dealer friends said she didn't smoke pot. She was from Port Aurthur, Texas which explains her Southern drawl. Sam Phillips, the guitarist was experimenting with the psychedelic sounds and may have tuned his guitar weird on purpose. Two girls I was close two idolized her. One was also a singer and would do her rendition of "Summertime" to much applause. My girlfriend could belt it out but didn't have the rasp in her voice. Rebekah was devastated when she died. Twice I saw Janis buying something off a dealer on Haight Street and it wasn't pot but a bag of white stuff. She gave him a $20.00 which is $200.00 in today's money. My friends would not believe me.

[@ttrails1]

I love when you young folk hear our music. We had raw talent and innovation and creativity. No auto tune, no set style especially in the 60s, just some free wheeling goodness. Cass Elliot sat there watching Janis in awe. Can't get much better than that given Ms. Elliot was a singing force at the time herself. Keep up the journey!

This performance is from the documentary film of the 1967 Monterey Pop festival which brought Janis to worldwide attention. Up to then, she was one of the singers of the San Francisco band Big Brother and the Holding Company. She soon became a solo artist and was paired with two other bands before dying at 27 from a heroin overdose. I recommend the pyrotechnic Piecennof My Heart and the wonderful Kris Kristofferson-penned ballad Me and Bobby McGee. The camera lingers on Mama Cass in the audience because the Mamas and the Papas also performed there and John Philips (one of the Papas) was one of the event’s producers.
