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 ...

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 ...

Summer of Love: Hits of 1967 (2007) more music like this

by Various Artists

This two-disc set (there is a DVD disc entitled My Generation: The History of Rock 'n' Roll also included in the package) from Time-Life is split into two parts (arbitrarily labeled AM and FM), both of which are centered on the pivotal year of 1967, the year in which rock went psychedelic and widened its scope into the political and social arenas, ...

In Concert

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 ...

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." ...

Love, Janis

Love, Janis (2001) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

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 ...

Live in San Francisco, 1966

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 ...

Rock Hits of the 60's

Rock Hits of the 60's (2001) more music like this

by Various Artists

Rock Hits of the 60's, released by Sony Special Products, is a cheap compilation -- made apparent by the sleeve's horrid graphic design and the disc's short running time -- that nonetheless rounds up an enjoyable set of late-'60s staples, such as the Byrds' "Turn! Turn! Turn! (To Everything Is a Season)," Blood, Sweat & Tears' "Spinning Wheel," ...

Hear It Now! The Sound of the '60s (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

This is one of the better compilations that Sony Music or any major label has ever issued on CD, gathering together remastered versions of memorable and notable songs from across the rock spectrum, from Simon & Garfunkel and Scott McKenzie, to Janis Joplin ("Down on Me"), the Chambers Brothers ("Time Has Come Today") and Sly & The Family Stone ("I ...

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 ...

Janis Joplin: This Ain't No Tribute Series -- All Blues'd Up! (2002) more music like this

by Various Artists

Janis Joplin: This Ain't No Tribute Series -- All Blues'd Up! is an unusual way to pay tribute (or apparently not pay tribute) to the music surrounding Janis Joplin, whether it be songs that she wrote or just performed. Offering new versions of "Piece of My Heart," "Mercedes Benz," and many others, the album features modern electric blues artists ...

Rock: Train Kept a Rollin' (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 ...

Big Brother & the Holding Company (1967) more music like this

by Big Brother & the Holding Company

The debut, self-titled album from Big Brother & the Holding Company is an evolving paradigm, ten tracks initially issued on Mainstream Records, a label that would have success in 1968 with "Journey to the Center of the Mind" by Ted Nugent's Amboy Dukes. Unfortunately for Janis Joplin and Big Brother & the Holding Company, the respectable ...

Underground Fire (1968) more music like this

by The Ventures

This was the year that Jerry McGee joined the group, temporarily replacing Nokie Edwards. There seems to be a typo on the disc's label, morphing the surname of Don Wilson into "Wilde," but there really is only one personnel change on this collection of slightly revolutionary material. Band jackets have been ditched and one guy even seems to have ...
