[Keefymonoped]

Amazing performance! Damn shame she was such a tragic figure in her personal life. She left us way too early.

[xPeacexLovexHarmonyx]

MY GOD I was born in the wrong decade.

[onlyfaint37]

4:56 I love it ! She's perfect!

[yoyogimah]

modern day singers like the late amy winehouse and adele do well ;)

[jacojou2627]

that was in Monterrey, México???

[jimihd1]

@jacojou2627 Nop.

Not a lot of people new who Janis was at this time. This was a band she was in called Big Brother and the Holding Company. Keep in mind, this was THEE 1st rock music festival. That's why you see Mama Cass with her jaw on the ground, absolutely blown away. Amy Winehouse? Adele? Please. Janis had more Soul than either of those two in one of her eyelashes. Period. Check out a song by Janis called 'Turtle Blues' recorded live inside West Hollywood's Barney's Beanery.

[StrangeMuseMovies]

@JoeBertone89 Yeah, they were basically unknown when they hit the stage and they, well SHE was a superstar by the time they left it. The whole music world at that time converged onto Monterey so EVERYONE saw this who mattered in the business.

[sharbohemia]

@4:35 I'm blown away. Janis Joplin performance is passion-filled, electrifying and pure energy... I am blown away at 4:35 - it's a topper. Love ~Sharon <3

[manganzoncineymusica]

La película se proyecta el sábado 13 de agosto en el Cementerio de Hollywood, CA, con otros trabajos psicodélicos de los 60, luces especiales y DJs en vivo…. Trippy, trippy!! Lean el informe en el portal Manganzon

[sexypsuedonym]

Mama Cass says at the end, "Wow, that was really heavy"!!!!!!

( most of us agree )

[rattmann36863]

She sang what she felt, and felt what she sang.  She became the music.

[Karmalize]

chills every time.

[sicilianbabe8]

This performance always gives me the chills all over.....just out of this world. Out of nowhere came Janice Joplin and look at the faces in this crowd! Everybody blown away! It still get me after all these years. WOW

[Critchie23]

I wonder if the bass player remembers this show, cause if the first minute of the video is anything to go by, I doubt it, haha

[InusualOBSESION]

woooow



[nellgwen48]

Janis never mailed it in, ever.

[gwengoadalso]

mama cass she bowed down

[waka0mole]

in general, why the music nowadays is not so good!!? why creativity is killed by the multinationals that are only worried about the money? it seems that is most important the quantity of money that can generate an artist than the quality of his/her job.. where's the freedom?

Great performance! one of my fav songs!

(sorry for my english)

[Creole714]

no disrespect! but this bitch sang the fuck out of this song!!!!

[jmar1371]

Cass said it in one word.

Wow.

[judecreek2]

At the 3:28 mark, the camera shows Mama Cass Elliott in the audience, sitting there with her mouth open in stunned admiration, the same way everyone feels the first time they hear Janis sing.

[PolarSkua]

@judecreek2 Yes, and seated directly behind her in this view is the immensely talented Alan Wilson of Canned Heat (w/ taped glasses).

[Slywoody48]

The greatest performance of all time, bar none!!!!!!!!!! Every bit of her went into this. If this didn't move you in some way, you're lyin' through your teeth!!!

[Maccamma]

Mi piaceeee e pur nu poc afor!!!! Creo que una artista como ella no existe.........Respect for Janis....

RIP

[HudsonBendTX]

If you've never seen the documentary film "Monterey Pop" you should rent it immediately. The sound and film quality is actually quite good, far better than on this clip.

[truck1962]

All I can say is this.Beyonce,Madonna and Miley.Watch,listen and learn.Notice no coattail hangers on(oops i mean dancers)

[yankees12man]

I was wondering if the guitar just had hella reverb which it does but at about 3:23 you can tell natural echo is associated with the guitar tone so I gotta say wow, that guitar playing is pretty inspiring. They didnt even need the reverb on the amp.

[Parkerhodges095]

Janis Joplin was simply amazing, every time I watch this performance it give's me goose bumps. The power of her music is remarkable. It was such a loss that she was taken at such a young age, there is no telling what else we could have seen from her.

[98682bobbyd]

@Parkerhodges095 goose bumps here too. lol

[melroz20102011]

first of all the guy had his guitar out of tune so it sounded terrible and second she was screaming alot which i didnt like i know she was trying to make it big back then but i just think it could of been a bit better

[CCienoo]

There is no music today that meets the skill, the beauty- the raw power of the voices of the 60's; the core of the cultural revolution in America. I doubt that we'll ever hear music so profound ever again.

[mothersfreakout]

Simply amazing. <3

[Dmoeski]

My rant on today's so-called "music": There will never be the 60's again!!! Labels whore out quasi-talented artists, digitally manipulate/configure the songs, use the marketing machine (MTV/Radio), tell ignorant teens what is hot. And what do you get??? Lady Gaga, Brittany, Jonah Bros., don't even let me start on hip/hop or rap (more like crap)...All I have to say is The Stones, Beatles, Jimi, Cocker, CCR, Doors, Otis, James Brown, Gaye, Zepplin, TheWho, Procul Harum. Music Today???Doesn't Exist

[donuthater]

@Dmoeski Yes, but during the 60's a lot of what you heard on the radio was stuff like The Eletric Prunes, Strawberry Alarm Clock & The Turtles. They still churned out a lot of crap. It's just that True Music sticks around & the BS is forgotten. That's what happened with Music then & that's what will happen with the Music being made now.... Also listen to "The Ballad of Jim Jones" it's a few years old. Listen to that friend, then tell me Music like that isn't around today.

[dendro1717]

is she mad or what, but I really love her, she is so good.

[metalfurby]

Love this performance

[euroyankee2003]

Real tears... from both Janis and me... Moving to the tenth power.

[robaronin]

The shots of Mamma Cass Elliot getting blown away by the power of her performance, actaully mouthing "Oh, man!" at the end, are priceless......

[whokeithmoon]

c the look on mama cass s face, looks like her panties got stuck to the seat.

[SniperUrFaceXD]

holy jesus, i had chills the whole time watching this. i just recently began to appreciate Janis and have fallen in love. the way she really put her soul into her music just leaves me breathless everytime. LOVE YOU JANIS RIP

[Sepia1989]

any Siobhan Magnus' fan ?

[OrchestraGemelli]

Unica e irripetibile!!! La Voce bianca più bella del mondo.

[TJWhitewolf]

She didn't become "Janis Joplin" until she left Big Brother in '68.

[aaatomzzz]

When did Big Brother and The Holding Company change their name to Janis Joplin?

[LASchgos]

she was at her best with Big Brother, they complimented her vocals....

[pedrocardutra]

Just her best!!!

I loved!!!!!!!!!!

[ladymelde]

Amen sister. Amen.

[keenansblue]

and 4:34.. she was so into it. I would LOVE to be able to scream like that...

[whokeithmoon]

@keenansblue my 4th ex wife could when she wanted me to stop playing around with the female singer in the band

[pdorn777]

When Joplin first did this song during the Saturday afternoon show, the audience didn't move for the entire number, not so much because they were too stoned to move, but too STUNNED by what they had just witnessed..Virtually everyone there was totally knocked out by Janis' emotional and vocal power.

[keenansblue]

2:05 the best note ever!! It gives me chills.....

[loveearth3355]

Good call! I LOVE 2:55!!!!

[guardianofcreation]

Mama Cass knew Janis was bad.. the clips of her in this video show her in awe of Janis...get it Janis!

[gilsonb12]

Legal é ver a Mama Cass do Mama and The Papas de boca aberta em ver uma estrela como Janis Joplin se entregando a um dos maiores clássicos do Blues !!!

[flyontheguy]

What a magical magical moment. She just came out and took over that song, and at the same time, she took over the audience too! There was and is no one better, she's another super nova from the 60's that passed us by way too fast. Wow.

[philfeerich]

Sheeit! She makes me wanna apologise to any woman I ever wronged.

[carinadruantia]

Amo demais!! Ai, meu Deus, que vontade de chorar!!!!!!

[Dmoeski]

Now I am going to say this at the risk of having some people of less than average intelligence turn this into some stupid race issue. I am a black man, and I know my soulful women singers, the majority of the best soulful women singers are black, you do have Tina Marie and Cyndi Lauper...but to be totally Honest!! Janis Joplin tops any performance I've seen. That vid was the true Queen of Soul...Most Soulful Female Performance Ever!!!!

[rongaudier]

You think that was soulful, look up janis joplin stockholm 3/3 "work me lord"

Definately the most soulful chick that ever lived.

[clawscow]

your right! It is ironic that the most souful and greatest blues singer would be white and we say people have "black souls" when we should say that black singers have white souls, not not a racial issue its just Janis was head an shoulders above every white black asian and martian ever

[Dmoeski]

Yeah, I think when it comes to the Spirit, the true heart and passion, the Essential Soul, There is NO COLOR, It's just how deep in touch you are with your soul!!!! Love Janis, Put it simply, She Just has "IT"

[sparrowhawk72]

@Dmoeski SO TRUE!!

[CarlSchwamberger]

@Dmoeski I'm with ya. Maybe some day folks will debate Janis vs Tina or Ella vs Dinah without ever refering to or even think about color.

[whokeithmoon]

@Dmoeski mr. black man, shame on you. big moma thorton..janisis idol..go listen to rock me.

[PeedroPaula]

@Dmoeski It's such a shame she died so young. I would have loved to see her and Joe Cocker get married and produce a whole litter of amazing soul singers!

[Dmoeski]

@PeedroPaula LOL!!! Now that would be a group to rival the Jackson 5. I LOVE Joe Cocker too, his live rendition of "You are So Beautiful"!!!! Gives me chills just thinking about it. It's really too sad what the dumb-ass record companies have done with today's so-called "music". There will never be music like the '60s!!!! Music Labels rather pay garbage quasi-talented artists crappy contracts, digitally manipulate voices/instruments, use the marketing machine (MTV, Radio) to tell kids what is hot

[donuthater]

@Dmoeski I thought about the same thing...It's just not that often you see a white person in America with that much Soul! There's a woman who had lived & suffered.

[Graphaks]

@Dmoeski There ain't too many of 'em, Dmoeski, but now and then a white woman has that certain something. I agree with you (and I'm white) that the usually the most soulful singers are black folks. Janis was the exception.

[hoosier469]

@Dmoeski , definately not a racist issue. I love all sorts of soul and blues, and Janis is and has always been one of the top soul performers. This performance was so incredible!

[MrNodzilla]

@Dmoeski .Don't forget Annie Lennox.

[l7ebels]

@Dmoeski sounds like youre desperate for attention

[jenny9487]

¡¡la rrrrrrrrraja janis...

solament tù .

q mas grande mujer..

de otro planeta

janis te amo

chile

por siempre

jenny

[RSLindsay]

Damn! This lady could really belt out a song!

The Monterey Pop Festival in 1967 was the moment when Janis Joplin really stepped out into the national spotlight.

You see Cass Elliott of The Mammas and the Papas in the audience. She mouths the words, "Wow! That was really heavy!"

That said it all.

[johntrlhkr]

The BSB do a version of this which is better than Janis' version.

[TheBMovieQueen]

She was and is such an important figure in music. A one of a kind personality with a voice of such power, intensity. There has never, will never be another like her. My favorite female singer.. hands down!

[jenny9487]

¡¡janis te amo!!..

no me canso de escucharte.

eres de otro planeta.

lo mejor de este mundo

[catmanjohn69]

ihate idiot prolly lil tex fag rapper LOLm queetr

[catmanjohn69]

the best lady ever by a HUGE HUGE HUGE margin

[iHATEftp]

easily the worst singer I've ever heard

[asafapple]

Ha ha You're easily the worst judge of music I've ever seen. Congrats.

I bet your favorite singer is Ashlee Simpson.

[williampaul69]

that ending is friggin awesome..

[LEdPRINCEgirl]

did you know that she inspired robet plant? Jesus Christ, where would led zeppelin and like a million other bands be without her!

[TimBobbro]

shivers everytime

[HDTVJunkie]

Amazing woman!

[SeboNY3]

Very powerful!

[ukulaura]

im crying

[ChuChu353]

Simply one of the greatest live performances ever recorded :-)

[MsMINDYLEE]

@ChuChu353 WITHOUT A DOUBT...

[oley117211]

el equivalente fémino de Robert Plant...no lo creen?

[pabloguitar27]

Percy siempre dijo que admiraba a janis y su forma de cantar fue inspirada en ella

Genios ambos!

[tarmogoyf333]

the lady @ 3:40 is in awe.

[NewYork90814]

haha i was watching the Monterey Pop documentary and i had the same face as her

[Pyrthas]

Just to be sure the lady gets her due, that's Cass Elliot.

[ukulaura]

she mouthed silently "that was so heavy"

[slightlysingle]

That "lady" is Mama Cass Elliott, my friend.

[asafapple]

Damn this performance is legendary.

[btonoriega]

La cagada!!!!!

[preopdollop]

the reactions of Cass Elliott says it all........

[moondough]

Love Janis, and she's on fire here. Her set at Woodstock, summer of '69, was good, but you can tell she aged a lot in those two years. Here, in the spring of '67, her powers were undiminished.

[NariofNowhere]

god i think this is my favorite performance of this song... she is just spectacularly amazing.... beautiful inside and out and that voice is just beyond words. miss you janis...

[larrygr90]

just loverly..yup

[jenny9487]

love janis joplin...

desde chile

[Zophie85]

im a kiddie and i recognized her immediately. i know my music.

[ValerieBarlow]

In case you kiddies don't know, at 3:26 that is Mama Cass, in awe, at Janis.

[ValerieBarlow]

This was one of my first faves as a kid in borstal

[vastedda99]

Yes,the bloody dago can speak English,however,since my post was directed at one of my countrymen, ho preferito di scrivere in Italiano. Americanella, tiene qualche problema con questo?Christ,we know she is a Yank, but can she speak anything other than English?From NYC? Let me rephrase the question. Yo, we know youse is fum Noo Yawk,but kin 'ya tawk anytin udder din Noo Yawk? LOL. Just kidding. Ciao!

[vastedda99]

In fatti,il video fu girato nel 1967. La "ragazza grassa" come la definisci un stronzo di merda qui era "Mama "Cass Eliott ,RIP,che nelle anni sessanta faceva parte de il "Mamas and Papas", aveva una bellissima voce, e canta "back-up" di "California Dreaming",con John Philips che cantava "lead". Che Mama Cass una dei grande di quella epoca, e tanta sbalordita della voce del'allora sconosciuta Janis,fu un grandissimo complimento.

[ValerieBarlow]

Crikey, I know 'es a bloody dago but can't he speak English? -Monnie Ferguson (Just kidding, I'm half dago an all)

[yairiluvr]

Watched her perform this in the mid 60's at Avalon Ballroom S.F., close up and personal standing at the stage right in front of her, simply amazing the amount of effort and feeling she put into the song.

[meouter1]

yur r a previlaged soul

[DaydreamerLou]

fortunate son...

[OTTOELF]

ha quasi sempre avuto strumentisti pessimi, per fortuna che manteneva l'assonanza e il ritmo, e la voce potente quel che basta per sorvolare, per noi ascoltatori, sull'accompagnamento ...

[lefty3boy]

ti ha plagiata noemi

povera janis :(

[johndelc18]

great Janis I love her

please kick off the 3:33 and 5:18 fat girl ;)

[howdydoo2007]

RIP Janis...you touched so many people while you were here and you still do! Amazing!!

[mollypuppygirl]

So good. Nothing better. She was the best.

[brucaliffo8]

poteva accordare quella cazzo di chitarra  porca di quella troia

[Far230191]

secondo me è l'audio, il vido mi sembra molto vecchio

[coldIam]

Music had true feeling then. Artists had real talent. JJ was right the top. There are others as good, but many.

[coldIam]

If you have a feeling for music of this gandra, then realize this rendition by JJ is near the top. Perhaps Big Mama T, herself did

it better, the again she wrote the song.

[missrepo]

Damn shes awesome..

[irenevr]

amazing performance.....left me speechless.

[JWaynesTube]

Yes, truly amazing. The expression on Cass Elliots's face says it all. After all these years, still a favorite.
