Pearl

Pearl (1971) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

Janis Joplin's second masterpiece (after Cheap Thrills), Pearl was designed as a showcase for her powerhouse vocals, stripping down the arrangements that had often previously cluttered her music or threatened to drown her out. Thanks also to a more consistent set of songs, the results are magnificent -- given room to breathe, Joplin's trademark ...

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 ...

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." ...

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. Each of these four albums includes ...

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 ...

The Midnight Mover

The Midnight Mover (1968) more music like this

by Wilson Pickett

The Midnight Mover, issued in 1968, was one of a pair of albums Wilson Pickett issued that year produced by the mighty Tom Dowd. The title track, a signature growler, was written by Wilson with Bobby Womack. The other includes "I Found a True Love," issued earlier in two parts on 1967's The Sound of Wilson Pickett. Womack wrote about half the set. ...

The Collection [1995] (1995) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

Sony repackaged and re-released the major albums Janis Joplin released -- Big Brother & the Holding Company's Cheap Thrills, I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama!, and Pearl -- as a slipcased box set. It's not a bad way to acquire the albums if you don't already own them, but there are no bonus tracks or new packaging or remastering, which means ...

The Collection (2000) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

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 ...

Mirwood Soul Story, Vol. 2 (2006) more music like this

by Various Artists

The second volume of '60s soul from this Los Angeles label offers two dozen sides, most of them from mid-'60s singles, though there are a few later tracks and previously unissued cuts and mixes. It might have been based in L.A., but for much of the time, Mirwood sure seemed to be trying to create a vibraphone-heavy facsimile of the Motown sound. ...

Anthology (1980) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

Anthology is an adequate double-disc retrospective of Janis Joplin's years with Big Brother & the Holding Company and her solo career, containing most of her best-known songs and a selection of forgotten gems. It's a fine set, but the single-disc Greatest Hits is better suited for casual fans, and the box set Janis serves the needs of collectors ...

Pearl/Cheap Thrills (1978) more music like this

by Janis Joplin

Columbia reissued two of Janis Joplin's two most popular albums, Pearl and Cheap Thrills, as a double-LP set in the late '70s. This isn't necessarily a bad way to acquire this music, but the packaging and fidelity on this set are fairly shoddy. Most fans will be better served by the original vinyl or CD editions.
