[YTsucks300]

The first time I heard this I was surprised at the way it sounded in comparison to the time it came out and it just stuck to me.

[treelover320]

[redsorakingdomhearts]

I remember my dad put this song on a CD of music that I listened to at night. When I was a kid I was scared of this song, now that I'd older and my tastes changed, this song has become one of my favorite songs that I get stuck in my head.

[2008jimema]

The one and only..... Forever Janis. The best blues singer!!!!!

[marshmellow904]

it makes me cry because music is so piss poor now, were never gonna see anything like this again.

[salto33]

for me one of the best slow blues of all time

[jackswife17972]

Dear God, Please send back Janis Joplin... In return we can send you two... Lady GaGa and Justin Beiber!

[imsped]

@jackswife17972 can we keep gaga and in her place send Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato, and Kesha along with Beiber?

[decorp01]

@jackswife17972 this shit does not pay =/

[helloeverybody995]

@jackswife17972 God wouldn't accept it, while he has Michael Jackson, Janis Joplin, John Lennon, Amy Whinehouse and Freddie Mercury????!!!! We'll have to listen to Lady Boring Gaga 'till the world learn to apreciate good music again...

[jackswife17972]

4 dislikes? REALLY????? Janis is like a stiff drink. It alters your mood and just makes you feel good!!! The first time I heard this song it made me feel good all the way to my toes. GOD, I love this woman.

[gionini1]

@jackswife17972 Remove God,I keep Janis !

[jackswife17972]

Janis is like a stiff drink. It alters your mood and just makes you feel good!!! The first time I heard this it made me feel good all the way to my toes. GOD, I love this woman.

[HellBeers]

[recharchic]

[recharchic]

And then between 3:15 to 3:21 brooming the pieces of broken glass

[recharchic]

Broken Glass at 2:53, it was a live recording from Janis....The Beautiful......

[salto33]

@recharchic

[kimchisuop]

My eardrums make love when i listen to this

[Biyucin25]

Long live the Blues!

[jkisses83]

luv this song!!!

[nikkizfairywings]

gottalove th lyrics

[cambridge1111]

That's a hell of a lot of music for three people! Unbelievable! I remember looking at this album cover (with all the R. Crum cartoons) when I was a little kid, happy as hell with the joy booming from my big brother's hi-fi speakers! (This did not go over well with my old man, though, who played in big bands all his life! ha ha)

[henkwilson]

THE BROKEN BOTTLE IN THE MIDDEL OF THE SONG IS STILL MY FAVORITE

CHEERS Janis

[GrumpyOldGeoff]

First heard this years ago on a "sampler" LP. Sleeve note identified this as Ball and Chain and I have been under that illusion (and searching for it) for 40 years. Now I've re-found it and its still one of the best "blues" tracks ever recorded. Many thanks for the posting.

[tironoscornos]

queime no inferno, Janis!

[roger080155]

@tironoscornos

Sem comentários..............

[cinderconk]

janis would often chug a pint of southern comfort during the solo, listen after the break as she smashes the bottle on the stage. got to see big brother and janis in '65 along with santana, country joe & the fish, quicksilver messenger service, the stone poneys(linda ronstadt), moby grape.... lots of great concerts for free in golden gate park. sorry, i had too much to dream last night.

[sugarmamaaa]

@cinderconk I lived in the Haight in the mid-late 60s. Went regularly to the Fillmore and Avalon. Saw Hendrix in the Panhandle on July 4 weekend of '67. It was a great time in SF. Wouldn't trade that experience for nothin'. Yes, free music and only $2-3 at the Fillmore or Avalon to see all those band and the awesome blues bands out of Chicago. This was before the commercialization of concerts. Seems to me that after Altamont and Woodstock lots of things changed. Peace! 

[MonikaKozmik]

This is such and interesting piece, for she recorded the 'bar scene'..later.. the bar fight and all the people were not there during the original recording... ;-)

[Lilbme2day]

@MonikaKozmik I have always assumed this was a live recording and wondered when and where. Now I wonder when and where the "bar scene" was recorded, and why? Who thought of it? It seems they must have had the song playing for the "patrons" when recorded, as you can hear the crowd responding. Anyway, classic Janis!! You not only hear the song, but you feel the song. Not many artists can give you that.

[MonikaKozmik]

@Lilbme2day So True. She delivered her all all the time. Thats why I love her heart so much. 'Ya gotta just feel..." wish more musicians thought as much, like I do.

Janis thought of the bar scene background. They went to Barneys to record the backing noise, for it was always so busy. It was to make it as though it was a sad musician playin her tune, and no matter what went down, the music doesn't stop... Kinda like the movie "string of pearls" hence the name... Pearl. ;-)

[Lilbme2day]

@MonikaKozmik Thank you for the info- very interesting.

[sharing1949]

Is this not the quintessential blues soul that was Janis? This could be one of her most accomplished expressions of R & B. She achieved a fusion here with venerable blues artists of some twenty-thirty years prior. Janis knew her genre and drew a generation into love of the blues. A remarkable, prescient, iconoclastic performer of legendary passion.

[angeldelanoche155]

ES DE LAS POCAS CANCIONES RESPETABLES DE LA JANIS JOPLIN

[HippieChikRisa]

[neferismom]

[caterinajusker]

[dancingluar]

[pedrocardutra]

[ravenfaerybell]

Janis made such an impact on my twenties. I have a tattoo to honour her, for all the good this is - I think all she needed was friends. . .

[ThePearlyrose]

[catiapn10]

Mulher do vozerão

[grazianeddu]

unforgettable...

[daddybug101]

I simply, just can't wait to see her on the other side. Lordy, chile, I'm ready.. No one can belt it out like she can.  And she put a head stone on Big Mama Thornton's grave. You are one great great woman.

[aero1zepp12]

[MirandaRightsAgain]

Thank you, Janis, for giving me back my voice!!!!!!!!! R.I.P.  I love ya Baby!

[MrLeeBoard]

[Mickfreak1]

Janis is my favorite female singer and no one has compared to her yet. Anyone can remake her stuff but they will NEVER be Janis. R.I.P. chick. You will be missed forever.

[ELIOProductions7]

I LOVE YOU JANIS!! your lyrics fit me so well, its like you sang everything for me!!!! ;D

[zorbazig]

One of the best blues ever...

[junkdevil1]

[BlackCrowNavajo]

@junkdevil1 and the more crap we see like rihanna and lady gaga the more we miss Janis..

[KOSMICKEN09]

[MirandaRightsAgain]

@BlackCrowNavajo Damn straight baby!

[MrJannickvb]

badass number from the golden period

[srahstner]

[MsRosewitch]

I'm not sure but I think Big Mama Thornton may have done this first

[GonzoRecovery]

First keyboard blues I learned to play..nobody like Janis.

[ThaKingWithoutaCrown]

I hear Janis when i'm stoned, and is so good, she make me up"""

[MysticMoonGoddess67]

@ThaKingWithoutaCrown She's still up to her same old tricks....singing the blues...no matter how bright the shade of orange. :)

you can change the surroundings.....but you'll always be who you are.

Infinite Love.

[ThaKingWithoutaCrown]

Yes but, you are what you feel you are, and she make you feel good ; )

[makaenki1]

Tengo 51 años y esta mujer me sigue erizando el vello cuando escucho su musica, es pura dinamita y digo es porque sigue viva de alguna manera, no hay duda........

[regale785]

[yoann1978]

[rastesdcat]

Brilliant

[miko1984]

One of my favourite's by Janis :)

You guys should check out this young lady, she does an amazing job at this little venue.

Her voice really picks up at around the 3:25 mark. Awesome.

[luisl1900]

ala mela reverencia

[atfatw]

one of Janis's best songs!!

[jbruceiful]

I listen to Janis daily almost, what a remarkable voice.

[lonelyqueen86]

what a voice! love you janis

RIP

[triumphantly1]

*great slow bluesy ....

[dforaste]

After all these years we still miss you, Janis.

[2reapers]

@dforaste I would give anything to have been able to see her live.

[hootowl97]

@dforaste Yes we do and after all these years theirs still no one like her,she was the best.

[isabellle87]

Fabulous  Janis !!!

[thedriverguy]

She was a lightning rod for dues to sing the blues. Her roots in early folk and small time groups brought her along swiftly to the fore. Then she went away. Far too soon.

[moovgirl]

Awesome! One of the best female blues singer. Yes, I know shes rock and roll but many of her songs were bluesy.

[TheMidnightrider4]

yea well let the real janis be heard instead of the few songs that hit the radio. this was the Janis I knew and loved..

[hawaiianangelface]

one of the best she ever did!!! LOVE IT!!

[vintageteg1]
