I saw Janis @ Fillmore East in 1969 and my best friend and I, along with many others, rushed to the stage front and managed to be right on the edge at her feet watching in awe of her amazing talent. She had a bottle of Southern Comfort in hand while belting out, Piece of My Heart. She was swaying and rocking and suddenly fell toward us. We all caught her and raised her back up in seconds! She took a breath and stated, "You see, there are still some gentlemen in the world!" The bottle never left her hand.

Love it and it ain't sad! I have seen many stumble with their glass in hand not spill a drop. Janis had a painful youth and she as many others like her do we drink or get high at an early age. As long as the truth is faced up to soon it can be okay. Ignore it and it won't go away.

Nicely done and really enjoyed it. I never got to see Janis unfortunately , but about 25 years ago, a mutual friend of Big Brothers and myself spent an entire night with all the guys from Big Brother except James Gurley. In between their sets they shared our little high top table and Dave Getz, Peter Albin, and Sam Andrew all sat right across from me two feet away and I was starstruck but managed to have great conversations. They had a girl singer with them called Lisa Battle who was excellent, incredibly powerful voice and I told them that she was really good because to be honest, she was being ignored and I felt sorry for her. When I complimented her, Peter Albin said to me "yeah, Janis had that scratchy voice." I think he was still pissed off at her for leaving the band all those years before. The girl I was with who had known Big Brother in San Francisco back in the day, she was actually with James Gurley the night his wife died. My old friend Pauly, who I just heard from today and who now lives up in Eureka, California, he knew Janis and all the guys back in the day, spent time with them, and he occasionally tells the story of the night he and his good friend, who was Janis's gynecologist, had to run down to the Fillmore because Janis's IUD got stuck. Pauly had to hold the flashlight while his friend fished the IUD out while Janis laid down on a piano LOL. Probably too much information but that is a true story. Pauly was also good friends and roommates with Robert Crumb, who designed the cover for Big Brothers famous album Cheap Thrills, and Pauly was at one time married to Robert's first wife Dana. In fact, about 23 years ago, Robert's son built the back steps on my then house. I have a signed note with a little drawing that Janis did framed in my house, as well as three original 1960s posters, two from the Fillmore and one from the Avalon Ballroom. I bought them many many years ago at Postermat in North Beach in San Francisco. Sam Andrew also wrote me a nice little note once and I still have his business card that he gave me. He was such a great guy. Anyway, sorry for rambling. Again this was very good and really enjoyed it. One of my favorite bands and huge Janis fan all my life

Great stories! I knew Sam towards the end (not well, but well enough to have some cool conversations) and I suspect you're right about Peter still being bitter. He and James never really got past Janis leaving, or ever really forgave her. Sam was quite blunt about that, and it was one of the many things that caused tension among the guys. James, too, was a problem from beginning to end. Getz would later say that they should have taken Albert Grossman's advice way back when and kicked James out of the group to get a more conventional guitarist who could adapt to more types of music than the freak-rock that James was limited to. Janis might have stayed with the band if they were more adaptable to expanding their boundaries (and if they were more willing to put in the work and practice, which apparently James resisted always). But who knows. There are always "what ifs."

@@badguitar5653 Hey thnx! wow great that you got to converse with him. He was a real gentleman. Oddly enough, my favorite of Janis's music is that which she did with Big Brother, but I can understand why she had to leave if she wanted to grow. I can also understand their bitterness, they were just on the brink of then making it big once Janis had joined them, and then they never really did, though they are "big" to me. But Janis said that she loved those guys more than anybody, and I believe she did.

Jae gave Janis love and shelter on her second trip to San Francisco. She told her she was beautiful and helped her even after their relationship had ended. Janis remained attracted and grateful to her to the end.

Linda Gravenites was a very talented woman. She designed incredible clothes for Janis to wear on stage and a beautiful chiffon outfit Janis wore to a party that Clive Davis threw at his high class apartment. Janis was late and she blew everyone away with her chiffon ensemble until she got closer and it was obvious to all she was high on heroin. Many were aghast at the sight of her. Linda was a calming influence for Janis and one of the few true friends Janis had that could cut the crap that flunkys and hangers on which Janis attracted the more famous she became. Linda and Janis were flatmates until Janis blew it and Nancy m9ved out. She cried on the phone to Linda who hated heroin that she wouldn't be a junkie forever. Dear Linda left us in 2002. Forever laidback, true blue genuine amazing woman. RiP Linda.

I knew Linda and Nancy Gurley very well. I used to baby sit Hongo for James and Nancy when I was a teenager in SF. For my 16th birthday Linda and Nancy came over to where I was living on Fell street and gave me a loaf of home made bread they had baked for me wrapped in hand died purple lace along with a ceramic skull they had picked up somewhere.. I was with James and Nancy early on the day she passed away. I caught a ride with them early that morning as I was heading up to a ranch I was living part time on in Novato and they dropped me of on their way to the Russian river...

I'm so rapt that you knew both these women. I've read about them and I saw on TV a few years back on the Roseanne show, one of her guests was Linda Granvenites. I was so thrilled to see her. By then she was in her middle or late sixties. It was a hoot when Roseanne announced that she could sing as well as Janis! The look gave Roseanne was classic understatement! Then Roseanne screeched and the audience went into hysterics! Hongo would be in his middle 50's, I think. Thank you so much for your comments. I'm thrilled!!

Excellent video! Very good summing up of the group's history. One quick correction: Janis didn't purchase the home in Larkspur until Dec. 1969 (and I don't think she fully moved in till early '70, but I could be mistaken there; but she definitely was still living in apartments in the Haight area through her fame in 1968. Also, are we sure that Nancy G was pregnant when she died? I've never heard that.

Hmm, not sure about that. Grossman was the one who convinced her to vacation in Brazil to get clean, and even paid for her methadone treatments. Could he have done more? Yes. Everyone could have. And it likely wouldn't have made one bit of difference. Addicts can't be helped unless they want to help themselves, and she didn't.

She's been accused of getting Janis hooked back on heroin. Even some say she's toxic. That's hard and tough. Is she really the orge that she made out to be. Or is because was Janis's lover and a female?

I have always thought that Big Brother and the Holding Company was a very loose band and not really suitable for Janis Joplin.

I LOVE JANIS, But this soundtrack, the text, and the reporter are really bad, she has little to no enthusiasm for janis or blues or rock music 😢

Fine slideshow, terrible narrator. Flat, droning, stumbling over script-reading.

Lucky that I saw her and Big Brother in Vancouver the back up band Was Chicago Transit Authority before they became just Chicago. The next time I saw her was with Festival Express in Calgary soooo lucky

I have wondered about the demise of the band soon after Janis died.

Cheap Thrills was Janis' best. An all time great singer, she died just down the street from where I lived in the Hollywood neighborhood referred to as "the jungle.."

I feel the same. I love cheap thrills. I wish she could have stayed with big brother. They would have done amazing things together.
