Janis Joplin's Greatest Hits [Bonus Tracks]

Janis Joplin's Greatest Hits [Bonus Tracks] (1999) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

A solid, if skimpy, ten-track best-of that gathers the most important songs from Janis Joplin's solo career, as well as her stint with Big Brother & the Holding Company. The compilation 18 Essential Songs offers a wider selection, but does not include the original version of "Me and Bobby McGee," which makes Greatest Hits the better purchase for ...

The Essential Janis Joplin

The Essential Janis Joplin (2003) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

Columbia has managed to squeeze an impressive, perhaps excessive, number of compilations out of Janis Joplin's relatively slim body of recordings. With this two-CD set, The Essential Janis Joplin, the label's at it again, though it's a good one to get if you don't want to collect all the Joplin releases, and certainly don't want to get the ...

Box of Pearls: The Janis Joplin Collection

Box of Pearls: The Janis Joplin Collection (1999) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

A limited-edition five-CD box set comprising both albums that Janis Joplin made with Big Brother & the Holding Company (Cheap Thrills and Big Brother & the Holding Company), both of her solo albums (I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama! and Pearl), and a bonus EP with five previously unreleased recordings.

The Ultimate Hits of the 70's

The Ultimate Hits of the 70's (2001) more music like this

by Various Artists

Nice collection of '70s hits, both pop and A.O.R. Features such huge hits as Boston's "More Than a Feeling," LaBelle's "Lady Marmalade," and Michael Murphey's "Wildfire." As you can see from those three highlights, the track listing is pretty diverse, perfect for listeners who want to re-create the experience of listening to the radio before it ...

Super Hits

Super Hits (2000) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

Janis Joplin: Super Hits delivers ten of her best-known songs in a budget-priced collection. "Piece of My Heart," "Me and Bobby McGee," "Move Over," "Try," and "A Woman Left Lonely" are some of the highlights of this lean compilation, which provides a concise package of Joplin's hits for the casual listener. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide

Woodstock: Three Days of Peace & Music [25th Anniversary] (1995) more music like this

by Various Artists

This four-disc box set was released commemorating the 25th anniversary of the original Woodstock festival that took place in August 1969, and combined both of the Woodstock albums released in 1970 and 1971 with previously unreleased material. It's a well-known part of the festival's history that many of the participants played self-confessed ...

Janis

Janis (1993) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

This three-CD box set is the most thorough and valuable retrospective of Janis Joplin's career. Besides including all of her most essential recordings with and without Big Brother & the Holding Company, this 49-song package features quite a few enticing rarities; 18 of the tracks were previously unissued. These include a 1962 home recording of the ...

18 Essential Songs

18 Essential Songs (1995) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

18 Essential Songs is a one-disc distillation of the triple-disc Janis box set. Running 70 minutes, it is a more extensive best-of than the ten-track 1973 Janis Joplin's Greatest Hits album. But it is denied "first pick" status because, unlike that album, it does not contain the hit version of Joplin's only number one single, "Me and Bobby McGee." ...

Cheap Thrills

Cheap Thrills (1968) more music like this

by Big Brother & the Holding Company

Cheap Thrills, the major-label debut of Janis Joplin, was one of the most eagerly anticipated, and one of the most successful, albums of 1968. Joplin and her band Big Brother & the Holding Company had earned extensive press notice ever since they played the Monterey Pop Festival in June 1967, but for a year after that their only recorded work was ...

I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama! [Bonus Tracks]

I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama! [Bonus Tracks] (1999) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

Janis Joplin's solo debut was a letdown at the time of release, suffering in comparison with Big Brother's Cheap Thrills from the previous year, and shifting her style toward soul-rock in a way that disappointed some fans. Removed from that context, it sounds better today, though it's still flawed. Fronting the short-lived Kozmic Blues Band, the ...

Pearl [Legacy Edition]

Pearl [Legacy Edition] (2005) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

After the live Cheap Thrills, Pearl is undeniably Janis Joplin's studio classic, and her final recording, released posthumously. She departed the earth at the very top of her game creatively. The album was recorded with a less-is-more approach -- the explosive horn section so prevalent on Kozmic Blues was replaced by a rootsier, more organic ...

In Concert (1972) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

About half of this two-record set features Janis Joplin with Big Brother & the Holding Company in 1968, performing songs like "Down on Me" and "Piece of My Heart." The rest, recorded in 1970, finds her with her backup group, Full Tilt Boogie, mostly performing songs from I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama! Joplin puts herself out on-stage, both ...

Pop Music: The Golden Era 1951-1975 (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

To commemorate the end of the century, Sony Music assembled the 26-disc box set Sony Music 100 Years: Soundtrack for a Century. The title was imposing, as was the idea behind it -- to chronicle the life of the oldest record label in the music industry. To be clear, Sony Music has not existed for 100 years, but the heart of its catalog, Columbia ...

Once Upon a Song

Once Upon a Song (2001) more music like this

by Various Artists

Unlike most nostalgia-driven compilations, Once Upon a Song is free of the filler that has bogged down like-minded discs through the years. Focusing in on story-songs from the 1970s, a number of the best ones are here. Launched with what may be the ultimate example of said, Don McLean's timeless "American Pie," the tunes here veer from ...

Big Brother & the Holding Company [Bonus Tracks]

Big Brother & the Holding Company [Bonus Tracks] (1967) more music like this

by Big Brother & the Holding Company

Big Brother's debut album was not recorded under optimum circumstances. The sessions were too rushed, and the sound thinner than the band would have liked, especially given how much more powerful some of the material (such as "Down on Me") would sound in later concerts. Still, it's not the useless throwaway some critics have portrayed it as, and ...

by Janis Joplin with Big Brother and the Holding Co.

Recorded live in San Francisco on April 12 and April 13, 1968, this set is a snapshot of the band -- with fine sound -- reaching the peak of their form. All of the well-known songs from their first two albums are present: "Ball and Chain," "Down on Me," "Piece of My Heart," "Summertime," "Combination of the Two," and "Light Is Faster Than Sound," ...

Women on Top of the Charts (1997) more music like this

by Various Artists

Perhaps inspired by the "women in rock" hype of the '90s (but likely not), Sony Music Special Products' Women on Top of the Charts contains a weird sampling of female artists of all genres. What exactly do Carole King ("I Feel the Earth Move"), Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam ("Lost in Emotion"), Basia ("Cruising for Bruising"), Susanna Hoffs ("My Side of ...

by Big Brother & the Holding Company

In the mid-'90s, Sony Music began remastering and upgrading many of the classic albums in their library, and Cheap Thrills got the bonus-track treatment in 1999. The major-label debut of Janis Joplin, the original LP was one of the most eagerly anticipated, and one of the most successful albums of 1968. Joplin and her band Big Brother & the ...

For the second time, Sony issued the three best albums in Janis Joplin's catalog -- I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama, Pearl, and Big Brother & the Holding Company's Cheap Thrills -- in a slipcased three-CD box; the difference is that this latter package contains the remastered versions of those three albums, which were released individually ...

Live in San Francisco, 1966 (2002) more music like this

by Big Brother & the Holding Company

Recorded on July 28, 1966, before the band had cut any studio material, this performance was one of Janis Joplin's first gigs with Big Brother. The sound is decent, with several famous staples of their repertoire already in place: "Down on Me," "Coo-Coo," and "Ball and Chain." Yet, in comparison with their best studio and live recordings from 1967 ...

This companion album to the hit musical features spoken word excerpts of Joplin's letters home to her family, read by the cast member playing the troubled, deceased star. Thankfully, it's Joplin herself singing all the familiar tunes. "Piece of My Heart," "Try (Just a Little Bit Harder)," and "Me and Bobby McGee" are all dusted off once again for ...

Collectables' Jukebox Hits of the '70s is an attractive package for consumers who want the biggest hits of the era. All 62 songs spread out over these five discs are recognizable. Unlike other similar sets, these songs are not re-recordings; these are the original hit versions. More than likely the casual listener will only need one track from the ...
