Interview with Janis Joplin

[@gusterguy01826]

you can hear her singing voice in her speaking voice. i like that

[@AnnaCarr]

That’s my dad - Peter Carr - interviewing Janis right at the very beginning of his career. He sounds so nervous! Janis sounds epically cool and together. Thank you so much for sharing this. I’ve heard about it of course, but never seen it.

[@shermsmoke]

Thats awsome!

[@sugarlove]

GREAT WOMAN!!!! AHEAD OF HER TIME!!

[@fernandoferreira6293]

Nobody is ahead of their time; it's just the others that are behind their own.

[@MissJ74]

RIP Janis on this 38th anniversary - you were and is still simply the best!!

[@meantamborine]

She seems so down to earth and nice. It's sad that she never seemed to be very happy.

[@fernandoferreira6293]

She seemed radiant enough. More would be radioactive.

[@moehammondmedia]

"There's always gonna be a large, huge bunch of straight people who aren't going for it." - Janis Joplin One of the most killer quotes in music history.

[@TheSkintVeteran]

Right on. 👏🙏

[@shaunreilly774]

And very true, unfortunately.

[@suficook]

Rest well Janis. You are so loved. Thank you for sharing.

[@sugarlove]

Bless your soul Janis!!!

I agree with another viewer, Janis is clearly very intelligent, articulate and insightful about American life ... as she says, there will always be a large proportion of straight people who 'just don't get it'. Especially coming from the conservative Texas, what she did was brave in moving away from it.

[@mathewwalentowicz3081]

maple1255 what she did was brave speaking out against racism in conservative Texas

[@julieburns333]

maple1255 So very true.... She was a genius , She had it b all figured out she had unique insight... And a powerful voice. A kind personality..I love her music..💖💖

[@richardbanker6041]

That quote of Janis reverberates down the decades regrettably. Very smart of her to spot that

[@Raven-rc8zc]

She was highly intelligent

[@DariaRock1]

@Donnie V. she read a lot of books...

[@SL-vi4tk]

@@DariaRock1 she named her dog Thurber, after the author

[@NZHelen]

I love her. She was amazing.

[@dankowolf]

Awesome soul...

[@brightbite]

If you look at her when she was a kid, she looked mature. I think that can be a product of being an old soul.

[@jvall5879]

Perfectly said

[@-.-.11]

Also being normal. Back then people just wore their faces, so to speak. Now it’s just makeup that hides what people truly look like.

[@jarodcarnarvon5198]

Such a beautiful sexy talented down to earth real woman!!! Her legacy lives on forever!

[@animalloverJen87]

Beautiful soul.

[@jadeshannon5583]

Any interview with Janis speaking is great

[@imtv]

It would be awesome to see Janis coming up one generation later as a 1977's punk-rocker

[@42.0fmthefever5]

Amazing woman! Sad that she left us but her music will never die! I love you Janis! 😍❤

[@fernandoferreira6293]

Have faith in science. It brings plenty back. Nobody really dies anymore. It might sound overtly cryptic now but stick around and you'll see I'll be proven right on that.

[@SteveAubrey1762]

What a sweet, humble, kind spirit she was! 831 Pearl!

[@tristan01101]

She's so awesome!

[@youkyouk7471]

She was so humble . (And so clever.) "La marque du Génie."

[@torhildulvestad4599]

One of my favorites intreviuws.... What a LADY!!!!!!!! Never forget her.... Loves fro Noorway

[@mindylou8188]

The greatest female vocalist of all time she had no training that was all natural talent. Still no one who can sing like her. She cut herself open every time she preformed it all so raw and real

[@ShasCho]

Very cool. A woman of passion and principle. Be sure to see part 2 of the interview!

[@sp1582]

I LOVE YOU JANIS !

[@LIE11Bldg7]

Love You Janis

[@soundvile]

wow that last comment definitely brought a tear to my eye.

[@analuizabraganca8406]

i love her

[@Baud0]

that's simple . She is one and only. R.I.P. Janis

[@Iceickled712]

"You're supposed to get married when you get out of high school and have a brood of children and keep your mouth shut you know. And I didn't do any of those things...They still haven't figured me out." - I like that quote and I think it really sums up what kind of person she was. She wasn't just going to fall in line- into the traditional little homemaker role that everyone was expected to. She was fine with being the weirdo ;)

[@SUGAR_XYLER]

*I was always like her NEVER going for traditional crap*

[@11FBA11]

I like Janis. A really cool person....

[@derekrowe6890]

This is the interview Ive been looking for for probably 15 years. Its on a Bonus Track from Alchemist's Cutting Room Floor 2

[@stevenwhite5560]

does that means you lost 15 years of your life for just 1minute 41 second ?😮

[@ericred3731]

Great talent and seemed like a genuinely nice person. I think the thing/personality that was liked by so many people also came with a price. Too free spirited and no discipline led to drug abuse and unfortunately her early death. I’m sure a lot of others luck out and don’t die from it and recover but she wasn’t lucky. Her music is awesome still.

[@jdeezy1200]

RIP Jan!

[@clapoutloudclapoutloud]

Liked her independence but not the drug usage, she was very talented and sad to see her pass so soon.

[@rubenjr2950]

I love her laugh ♥️

[@ghairmichaud5765]

Beautiful woman!

[@Kovayne]

Ah..I fucking hate fashion but..damn,i just love Janis's fashion style ^^' specially when she wears those colorful boas like on Dick Chavette with her pink sunglasses..ah,she looks stunning on this video too.The Rock Queen will forever lives!!

[@sdremirrnmturert7928]

SHE THE GREATEST

[@susanpeter1238]

I WISH I HAD KNOWN JANIS..I WANNA TELL HER SHES LOVED❤

[@Playsinvain]

Always gonna be a large straight bulk of people who aren’t going for it. Well said JJ

[@--chris--]

she does have meaning. as she speaks you wanna hear more! shes so natural and plainly wise

[@DorrisDiaz]

Love it!

[@LuizaHar54]

Какая милая Дженис!❤❤❤❤❤

[@strawberrygirrl]

Hey Janis my small town doesn't understand me either xx

[@mirabelrose6124]

Shes dead so young like jim ...omg miss you janis you and jim.morrisson ... two.legends and icone ...❤💋

[@rocklover5628]

Janis broke a bottle on Jim Morrison head cause he wanted her to stay at his party, and she wanted to leave ...... Janis was some girl....nobody says no to Jim Morrison!!!!!!

[@GreenEnvy.]

Back when straight people meant square people which meant uncool people which meant didn't smoke weed people.

[@krisscanlon4051]

Thank you...saved me from posting...the so called straights or squares.

[@jamesheath7601]

RIP 😘

[@davidmunguia1047]

Única.

[@wiroeljohe]

Esa Entrevista La Vi En El Documental de La Serie VH-1 Legends Que Por Cierto Fue El Mejor Documental que Se Realizo A La Primera Dama del Hard Rock: Janis Joplin. Si Alguien Lo Tiene Por Favor Pongalo en You Tuve. Gracias.

[@batzeth]

♥

[@edwardanthony7283]

Janis would have been great in the Blues Brothers flicks.

[@diogene3913]

I say Janis would be Sister Blues.

[@Johnny53kgb-nsa]

She wasn't treated well in school. But, she prevailed.

[@thecaproni100]

1969.. in London , by the Albert Hall .. One very talented Singer ...

[@dimblesmiller]

ah janis, my small town still doesn't understand. things are moving very slow indeed.

[@alenjosic7976]

I think miss Joplin was a great singer and the sweatest girl who ever walked on the Earth.

[@jradetzky]

cool glasses

[@Vegheadsrock]

In the beginning she say she had this incredible what kind of voice? Ive played it over and over and I cant understand it.

[@Julcisko]

I agree...my opinion was (and still is) that she looked so young....when she performed without hats and glasses she looked like girlie (also at Woodstock, Amsterdam concert in ´69, etc...). And I don´t think make-up makes you to look younger. I don´t were it and that´s the reason why everybody guess I´m 16 although I´m 24.

[@diogene3913]

Excuse me, but did Janis wear glasses? I ask because there are also some photos where he wears the same glasses... And those aren’t sunglasses.

[@darrenfreyauthor]

it's so weird hearing how she sounds and carries herself here compared to how she sounded and carried herself in some of her final interviews. This is before she could afford to drink and stay high all the time.

[@andreavega1036]

Societys moved hella fast now janice :/

[@fernandoferreira6293]

She's, on occasion, the very best definition of 'cute'.

[@nadzmuzik]

@moony95 It was in 1969!!! Even Bardo was wearing fur in that time....!!! No offense, maybe it's not even real fur!! anyways, judging people on their clothing is pretty superficial... Janis is deeper than that...

[@fernandoferreira6293]

The freedom the flag represents, if it's worth representing anything whatsoever, must always include the freedom to burn the flag. But never the people that hold with altogether. I agree with her and her predecessors on the former but am appalled altough never surprised of my contemporaries ignorance of the latter.

[@susanpeter1238]

UNHAPPY WITHOUT JESUS

[@ukulaura]

: )

[@soulshaker205]

k what?

[@therealsolstice]

hahahah "familial" hahaaha "i'm so creative and cool i make up words.... now pass me the bottle"

[@catalinalanderos194]

Cantaba horrible.

[@mycitywasgone4216]

I bet she wasn’t only hard to handle, But a wild - cat in the bedroom ‼️ RIP in peace Ms. Joplin 😇

[@moony95]

I love her voice and her songs, but see her wearing fur really makes me wonder if she was a good person

[@tyasiadickson8322]

@scubapaul janis is dead
