A little backstory to what you saw. The Monterey Pop Festival took place in 1967 at the Monterey Fairgrounds, organized by the quartet pop group The Mamas and The Papas and a couple music producers. The festival was a pre Woodstock type of show of two or three days of acts from around the world in rock, blues and pop music but much much smaller. The woman you saw in amazement is Mama Cass Elliot from the Mamas and The Papas and sitting next to her is a very young Colombia Records producer by the name Clive Davis. Janis Joplin was making the rounds in the rich San Francisco music scene of the 60's and had recorded jam sessions with other local artist who themselves would later become household names. Janis and her band The Holding Company earned a spot in the show by recommendation of legendary SF rock promoter Bill Graham who brought many SF bands for the festival. Outside of the Bay Area Janis was not known, that is until after this performance which immediately Clive signed her to her first record contract with Colombia... the rest is history.

There are great singers out there today too, probably even better ones from a pure technical point of view. But it feels like it's all about perfection. Even parts that should come across emotionally and improvised seems to be just "pre-planned" more often than not.

If you really want to hear some mind-blowing vocals by her, check out her hit that was a cover of the George Gershwin song Summertime. Make sure to do the studio version because the microphone catches her doing some astonishing things with her voice, especially at the very end where she has this incredibly resonant descant part going on, and they both track together as she glides down to the final held note. It turns out to be an overtone of her voice that is very dominant and almost acts like a descant harmony part. And it's a beautiful incredible song.

First off... Love you and your reactions !! as a side note. Janis Joplin and Big Brother and the Holding Company (relative "Unknowns" from San Francisco) played the first day of Monterey. The cinematographer, D.A. Pennebacker, was late to arrive and the first day was not recorded on film, so the promoters (this year the promoters were John and Michelle Phillips. "half" of the very popular group, "The Mama's and the Papa's". That's why "Mama" Cass Elliot was featured in the recording) invited Janis back on the last day to perform "Ball & Chain" again, to be filmed. They also informed a bunch of "record labels", that this sensational women was going to perform again on the last day, so about 8 record companies offered her a contract, and she signed with Clive Davis from Colombia Records. The rest, as they say... "Is history" !!

I used to see Janis and all the psychedelic bands just as they were getting known across the rest of the nation. "Down On Me" was their first single but when you'd go to a concert, the whole crowd would demand "Ball and Chain". This performance was her best ever! The others were good but in this one she hit every note perfectly and she knew it! On their album, it misses the magic. I loved your reaction to this. I check out all the reaction people on certain songs and your response to this was the best. Like Janis, you didn't hold anything back and I'd bet you don't either when you perform. That's what it is all about, you sharing with the audience what you feel and think. Just before Monterey Pop, I met David Crosby and Graham Nash and later met Michelle Phillips of the Mama"s and Papa's at another concert. Michelle's husband, John, put Monterey Pop together and the woman with her mouth open was Mama Cass, the other female singer of the group. Their songs were more tightly controlled but still excellent. I missed going to that concert, some time, check it out. It introduced America to Jimi Hendricks, The Who, Janis, Jefferson Airplane and Otis Redding and others. All were known regionally and among other performers but not nationwide. Never has there been an explosion of music both in California, New York and England as the '60's and '70's.

If I'm not mistaken, I think that this was really Janis's introduction to the "big scene"...and, that she'd performed this song, earlier in the day (Monterrey Pop Festival)...and, they were filming the "bigger acts"....but, they asked her to come back on stage and perform it, again, so they could film her and the band. ENERGY: OFF THE CHARTS. She poured EVERYTHING SHE HAD into everything she did - and, if she DIDN'T: at least that's how it feels to those of us who are fans.

You'll find it difficult to find any other singer who brought emotion to the stage, like she did, Janis was a phenomenal vocal powerhouse. Sadly she is one of the founding members of the "27 club" (or club of 27), as she died way way too young and left us with just a handful of recordings. What might be more saddening even is her life story, she was not like other girls, so she was a target for ridicule and pestering, her school even voted her "ugliest boy in school". But there was one thing that gave her joy and confidence, and that was singing and performing, those were the only moments she felt loved. There were good people in her life too ofc, but the damage was already done in her younger years and she tried to ignore it, but the negatives were always lurking in the back of her mind. Her life and career were cut short, but her legacy will remain forever. ps. the lady who had the look of awe of her face? that's Mama Cass, one of the great vocalists of her time as well, she was one of the 2 female singers in "The Mamas and the Papas" and her voice was amazing as well. Clearly visible, she stood in awe of Janis.

That was a great review. Janis Joplin has always been one of my favorite singers, especially being a teenager in the late 60's and early 70's when so much great music was created. I believe you would be very impressed with Liliac. Melody is the lead singer who also has quite a unique voice like Janis Joplin does. They have covered "Piece of My Heart" by Janis Joplin, "Holy Diver" by Dio, "Crazy Train" by Black Sabbath, "Enter Sandman" by Metallica and one of my favorite originals of theirs, "Mars". Every single one is spot on and the grittiness in her voice is perfect for heavy metal. They always get rave reviews and I'd love to hear your reaction to them.

Janis put every ounce of her soul out through her songs. She had the ability to make you feel her pain through her singing. There will never be another singer close to her talent. Died way too young and not knowing how much she was truly loved. There will never be another “Pearl”

There is no second place when singing from their soul. Janice is alone, lapping the field. She sells our everything with every performance. Simply the best imo

I was lucky enough to see Janis in concert when she split with the Holding Company and formed more of an R&B band. Incredible performance by a legendary singer. Listen to Piece of My Heart, Try (just a little bit harder), Cry Baby, Maybe, and an incredible version of Summertime. I suggest the studio versions to get the full effect of her performance and the music supporting her.

I haven't heard a better summary of Janis Joplin in a long time. There is really no one or few like her. The band here is big brother and the holding company. She later went solo and had other bands backing her but these were the first. And as a band they were awesome! A quote. She put her whole being into her singing she said "every night I make love to 10 ,000 people on stage, and go home alone". Ugh. What a beautiful talent. Enjoy

I was so excited to see you post a reaction to our Pearl🎶‼️. It always gets me emotional as I attended this concert as I grew up in the Monterey area. Jimi Hendrix and tons of other artists broke out after their appearance here in 1967. Janis was a force of nature and I got to see her in San Francisco a few years later. She is a Texas gal and even knew Jimmie Vaughan, Stevie Ray's brother! New sub here from your 1st Stevie Ray reaction and this reaction is the best I've seen of this performance she did💯. There are lots of suggestions but her Summertime is great but also Me and Bobby McGee is one of my favorites. I am really enjoying your channel🙌👏🎉🎊🪅💯

She was a FORCE. Even in this performance, she delivered such a emotionally charged singing , and most likely really high of some harsh stuff, emotionally distraught ….. she kills it. One of the greatest. Great reaction, is always enjoyable to watch you move through your own emotions. Please please please, react to Eivor’s “Falling Free” - live at Old Torshavn theatre, and also Eivor’s “Wake me up”- live RTT…. You won’t regret it, I promise.

It was like she put everything on the line every moment of her 27 years on the planet - she lived it that way, and she sang it that way. Extraordinary.

There’s a version of “work me lord” she does on like Swedish TV that is imo her best live performance ever
