Janis Joplin - Work me Lord (live Sweden '69)

[MrJesus3037]

divina e maravilhosa, esta nao teve e nunca tera uma rival.

[Tima38Killjoy]

I love you so much Janis. Missing you daily. 

[montblancfan]

SIMPLEMENTE JANIS ES MARAVILLOSA, NUNCA HABRÁ OTRA CANTANTE QUE IMPRIMA TAL SENTIMIENTO Y VIVA LA MÚSICA COMO LO HIZO ELLA. ¡HONOR Y GLORIA A SU ARTE INMORTAL!

[NoRosesForMe]

This was her best band. This was the hardest times of her life. (during that particular time) But this was the best album and badn she ever had. Untouchable and perfect. Snookie Flowers is an awesome sax player. Just gets to ya. Amazing sounds and of course Janis is the best. Thank you for sharing this with the world. PEACE♥

[NoRosesForMe]

@NoRosesForMe forgive my typos hahah (in my last comment) ,,crap,,,,,but yea ,,,watchin this again after 12 long hard dreadful hours of work. Perfect. xx

The beuty is it's live, no lip syncing, no overdubs and no forgetting lyrics 'cause it's all about her and the moment. Whatever she's feeling, felt or thinks while she performs becomes the song. Support your local music sceane, go see a band.

I love Janis Joplin.

She had more talent in her finger than all the crappy singers out there today have combined.

[TheCamilapazdejah]

Minha Flor... simplesmente AMO!

[aguia2010ana]

Te amo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Chocotitatierna]

uffffffffffffffffffffffffff me encanta

[iamdanibaum]

Wow... Incredible.

[Grendelmonster8u]

Realized this live version doesn't have the lyrics that are on the album version nor what she sang at Woodstock: "Every day I keep trying to move forward but something is driving me back, something trying to hold onto me."

I love seeing her live but the album/studio version is excellent too.

[doyle8550]

WOOOW, thank you so much for this!!

[Tavener]

Listening to this brings tears to my eyes. Sometimes I forget why she's so ridiculously great, now I remember. Thanks for sharing.

[Grendelmonster8u]

@Tavener It brings tears to my eyes too when I hear it. I don't know why it wasn't played on the radio...maybe more people need tears brought to their eyes. It's good for people's souls to be moved.

Seeing the videos are great, thanks for the upload.

[AlinaGavrielatos]

Wow, wow, wow I was speechless after watching this wonderful performance! She lives in the song.

[SuperMarianne56]

Thank you so mutch for putting this one up.

This song does something to me... I have this version on audio but I never saw the footage. It's even more moving when you can actually see her and the band getting into it.

[aloliver331]

He sure did. Blessings to Jan of Arth.

[GonxoJoplin]

Where you find it ??? 

[mschiquitita10]

@GonxoJoplin I recorded it off Swedish TV about 10 years ago, I had forgotten about it and found the VHS only a few months ago :)

[Abridgedfan134]

Oh I've been looking for this for a long time! thank you for uploading!!

[gubban159]

jag blev mållös. tack ska Du ha Elin, det var så . . . ÄKTA ! i am at such a loss for words after watching this. but i must say, it was a very good time to check in. thanks again : )

[mschiquitita10]

@gubban159 cheers Marcus :)) She was one of a kind, a true musician who put all her feelings into her singing.

[TheRachakins]

Whew!

Thank you so much for uploading this!!!

I've been wanting to see the end for a long time!

For a while, someone posted up the whole performance, except for the very end of this song, then it got removed a while later! so I haven't heard this version in a long time, and may I say, this is a classic memorabilia!

[DrSheerFolly]

a classic look back, Elin, at another one of rock's superstars that left us too early. sadly, it's a story that's been repeated too often. great upload, thnx :)

[mschiquitita10]

@DrSheerFolly Only happy to post it Harold! Thanks for dropping by!

[jonasjar]

utomordentligt bra! det är såna här klipp vi vill ha elin, såna här klipp!

[mschiquitita10]

@jonasjar haha ja det är onekligen kvalitet på den här musiken och dessa musiker :)

[Mrroydoncrossing]

You may get this twice!! 'Guess you love rubbing in that I was born BEFORE the middle of the last century, so all these uploads still seem new to me-amazing it was over 40 years ago-great upload Elin :)

[mschiquitita10]

@Mrroydoncrossing haha sorry about that Bill :) I have a clip from 1949 posted as well, that is as close I've gotten so far. But one day I will find a piece of music or clip that will make you feel young as well, and no cheating with Beethoven or so :D

[Mrroydoncrossing]

@mschiquitita10 Hey cheeky, Beethoven,indeed!! :) -Vera Lynn perhaps hehehe

[mschiquitita10]

@Mrroydoncrossing Lol we'll see :D

[SuzzCC]

Janis was truly talented and special. One of the first local performers to embrace the freewheeling hippie movement that became legendary in Austin. Unfortunately, I did not get a chance to see her perform here - she preceded my arrival to Austin by about 6 years. Thanks Elin for uploading this great Swedish performance. 2 thumbs up!

[mschiquitita10]

@SuzzCC Many thanks for the comment and the thumbs up Suzzanna! Glad you enjoyed the show :)

[SHAYMCN2]

Janis had a real powerful bluesy voice Elin

Sad she died so young

Nice to see this rare clip live in Sweden

[mschiquitita10]

@SHAYMCN2 Only happy to post it Shay, thank you for the comment!!
