i can't believe someone recorded those early years of Janis Joplin in California .God bless you, and thank you for posting this .
Yeh same brother, I wonder though if her early fans followed her career into the electric rock years.?
Janis Joplin and Sandy Denny
- greatest singers ever
I agree. This is just so awesome to hear. Especially in my home city.
Before the hippies, San Francisco had the beatniks. Don't forget England music invasion had already hit our radios. San Francisco already had a huge music seen going on, especially in North Beach. This is still too early for me, I'd have been 8 yrs old. But, by 12 I was already deep in the S. F. music seen. This the year of JFK's assassination. Really remember that time. 😢
🌬🎶🎸❤ ty
I never understood the folks who trashed her as looking ugly. I always found her immensely attractive both in looks and personality. I think due in great part to her very real heartfelt vulnerability and honesty in all she did including her music. A truly deep and wonderful person was Janis Joplin.
it was the skanky look she developed from using heroin...not brushing her hair...no makeup, old clothes etc... she looked like a hobo when she was popular.
Rasputin's Liver when she was having drug problems, it was not that beautiful face here. One thing I have noticed, with her incredible talent, it seems she never sings a song on a different range. I wish I could have heard her bring down her volume, with more arrangements. I need Eclectic music. The same thing becomes monotonous for me. With that being said, She was highly talented. Just wish the dmn drugs hadn’t taken her.
Rasputin's Liver She looks totally tappable with her geetar there
no makeup etc... she was lovely of course.
She was great looking until the drugs kicked in with the cigs and boozzzzzeeee
For someone who is so tired of hearing "...Bobby McGee" this is a treasure. This gives us an inkling of how talented Janis was way back when.
Typical radio BS...overplay the same damn songs til they succeed in making us sick and tired of them, even though they are great songs. I have avoided listening to Bobby Mcgee and Piece of My Heart for years for that reason, but I recently watched some 'reaction' videos to both those songs (as well as other Janis classics) and it was nice to hear once again what made those songs great in the first place. Not to mention thoroughly enjoying seeing young folks who never heard of Janis get blown away 😄😄😄
@@Katerina9256 My thoughts exactly. I loved the Airplane but didn't care one bit about Grace's beauty. I wanted to hear
the grit and power of Janis and the very competent playing of the Holding Company. It made me come alive, like listening to
Steppenwolf's "Born To Be Wild".
I can never get tired of me and bobby mcgee but i do agree
Before bobby mcgee. Lots of us had been following Janis for long time
God almighty, she's 20 years old in this recording, do you even realize how privileged we are to listen to it?
When I watched a documentary about Janis I was like “damn, I wish I could have seen one of her performances before she was famous”. Thank you to whoever recorded this!
I swear to god she sounds like the old Black blues singers recorded in the 30's.
tootz1950 thats who she is imitating so yes. Good imitation
Where you think she got it
Those old recordings were played back at the wrong speed making them faster and higher in pitch .. So she's imitating the character of records played too fast
toob maniac def intriguing thanks!!
And 20s
There was only ONE Janis Joplin. You sang from life, from love and from your heart. You are missed, totally missed.
Why do you say there was only one? Have people you spoke to said there were more?
She was a storyteller too! Love her ❤️
Truly, this belongs in the Congressional Library's collection of Americana recordings it's that good. She truly was such a treasure, wish she'd made it further but man what a light.
True, but do you hear people playing any of her songs anymore? I wish to hear people playing guitar and those songs around the public areas; but, it would be probably against “zoning regulations!”’ And yet it would be so beautiful. It would reduce frustration and aggression in people. All we need is art and great music. And not confined only to expensive venues.
Postor child for all those who felt like they were on the outside looking in growing up. The world really misses you Janice.
poster, Janis.
i am very shy. i stutter. i couldn't get up and sing like that at all. but i used to date a red headed woman and i never ever realized how much she looked like janis until we broke up. this is a very kool recording. i love that old folk/blues acoustic thing.
@@reblahuty63 The next time you're alone somewhere, pick up any new printed matter and read it loudly, Quickly & LOUDLY. No stuttering when I do this!. Works for me.
😔
Spell check...Janis, poster
Exactly what I love about CZcams.
My line is: "This is why the internet was invented."
This keeps great performances current-maybe autotune, overdubbing and CGI will go to trash and artists will demand return to these basics- talent is not gone. Producers are just impatient. Nothing beats REAL😎🕺
@@shirleymuhleisen683 well said. If you like flaws, check out my music. Hehe
Sad that she would be gone in seven years, incredible natural talent.
"All I know is something like a bird within her sang
All I know she sang a little while & then flew on"
The Dead!!! Here's a great live version of "The Bird Song (for Janice)": czcams.com/video/YJS-kxBnHRc/video.html
❤️ (~);-} ❤️
This is an obscure gem, I am amazed how some people have access to incredible media-so valuable!
Same here old man. Its astonishing
I know what you mean - her voice was absolutely amazing at this time. So clear and strong.
She really has a 1920s-style blues voice more than a rock voice. It's great.
Projecting in a full coffee house.
Agreed!
Ja hon låter precis som Bessie Smith
Janis was something different... Sure wish she was still with us.
Super talent she was, rest in peace dear one
Real talented, see hit all the notes in pitch!! I think she was very sexy
she was 20 years old in 1963 .....so she would be 80?
She is still with us...
🌬🎶🎸❤💐 every day 4PM I'll sing tunes out door at SENIORS Mobile home park. She got me at hello
This is priceless. She was phenomenal. No other like her. This music is raw and gritty with amazing talent. All of which is Janis.
And no slouch on the guitar either. Imagine her with a Les Paul or Fender electric guitar?!
Wow, it is amazing to hear Janis in this era before the hippie and drug culture. Her singing was already wild and aggressive. This is where heavy rock was in 1963.
Gosh, she isthe very fucking best . In the sixties and today. There is nothing like Janis.
Flames that burn twice as bright burn out twice as quick. You were a bright flame Janis, and we still feel your heat.
What a great recording for 1963.
Oddly free of hiss &other tape noise. Someone spent some time cleaning this up. Unless it's a state of the art (for 1963) recording. Unlikely to have been running in a coffee house inSF.
Her depth as a performer is astonishing.
The real sadness here is there was no video of this whole set for us to see the excitement in her face singing.
She sang these songs at Kenneth Threadgills has station and Tavern on North Lamar in Austin we were in jr. High school and my friends family owned a home across the street sit on a brick wall after they closed and lock the door and jam sessions some till daylight...ol man way down in TX..
Not only could Janis belt out a song like no white woman before her, she also had perfect pitch.
It was amazing how she could hit the notes right on. I miss her contribution of music. She gave us so much.
This girl was a power! The sound of the tape is clean, you hear clear for being 58 years old.
This is the earliest recording of hers I’ve ever heard. Truly a treasure ❤️❤️❤️
Talk about luck and young love. I met Janice Joplin in 1968 while I was in 9th grade - age 15. We met at the Memphis Mid South Coliseum about an hour before the doors officially opened for ticket holders to enter the arena. She was the opening music act (obviously mis-billed) for an all black southern radio station's annually sponsored event called The WDIA Goodwill Review (AM Radio). I was a hired usher for the event & she walked right up to me friendly as can be. We spoke about 10 or 15 minutes then she gave me an autograph which, because of young love, I immediately passed it on to my girlfriend at the time. :/
Neither Janice nor her band, Big Brother & The Holding Company received anything close to a welcome reception as most audience members were expecting tunes by famous or upcoming black artists/bands who would be playing their hits heard on the radio. Although Memphis is a Blues mecca ..an unknown Texas/California Blues band is NOT the same animal. After her set I heard that she swore she'd never play in Memphis again! Though I gave a piece of history away - because it was for love - which is always the right reason at least thankfully no one will ever erase the memory of it!
PS, I also ushered shows for Jimi Hendrix (2 different shows), Sly & The Family Stone, Steppenwolf, Iron Butterfly, Tommy James & the Shondells, Sergio Mendez/Brazil 66 & many others. After a sound check one of the guitarists for The Classics Four (Spooky, Stormy, etc.) actually taught me the chords for Spooky ..which happened to be chords I'd wind up using in later years in several songs by Pink Floyd! ;)
Thank you for this story. Lucky you!
You are a lucky man!
Janis
Awesome memories
Fascinating!
Janis Joplin, one of the greatest. Gone too soon.
🌬🎸🎶❤💐💐💐
Checked her monitor speaker for her, New Years Day. The next day I was in the Marine Corps having my long hair shaved. But I did have 1 word with Janis - and I’m still flying. You know that word was “YES!” And She was drinking Southern Comfort out of a 1/2 gal bottle without a glass. My Angel.
A hurricane of talent.
This is a pivotal moment in not only her career but for the whole scene at that time in general. Amazing find, she is like Robert Johnson belting stomping and romping. She got strung out sent back to Texas, was offered a gig with Roky and the 13th Floor Elevators but decided she’d give SF another shot, linked with Big Brother and the Dead and drove a culture to the head of the seventies based in that rhythm and blues and pure soul. Janis Joplin deserves monuments and shrines. Wild Child, love sick in reckless abandon, it’s lonely at the top but the view is about perspective. With Janis she was a lonely heart and just wanted to be loved, “and isn’t that all what any one wants man?”
Best rendition of that Ma Rainey song I've ever heard. So great to hear the genesis of Janis' style. Great find. Thanks heaps
What a joy it is to find this sweet bad ass gal singing with full blues voice proper.
What a set of lungs!!! Being a singer myself, she's one of my idols. She was taken from us when I was 10 & she was 27 - waaaaay too soon. Miss you, Janice. Thanks so much for posting this gem from the past.
Thank you Janis for making us feel those feelings
🌬🎶🎸❤ SF SF 1960's & Haight ASHBURY ... Filmore West alot.
Heard her there back when I was in high school (just down the Peninsula from SF) and going to North Beach coffee houses was the height of adventure and walking a bit on the wild side. And kept following her career through the days in the Haight and beyond. Saw her one time on a fluke - my sister and I couldn't decide whether to go see Big Brother in SF or the Dead in San Rafael. We ended up going to the Dead show, and Janis showed up around 2 am and did an amazing set with PigPen and the guys. Good times!
Fortuitous! Cheers (~);-}
The talent is already quite evident.
I almost scrolled past this. So glad I decided to check out Janis Joplin in 1963. What a great gift she had. Powerful.
I used to read poetry at the Coffee Gallery. Back in the day...
I played there in about 1972... Those were the days.
You could HEAR IT then. Couldn't you? WOW............! R.I.P. Pearl
THIS is one of the reasons I LOVE CZcams!!!!!
Something unknown to my ears always seems to roll by....
I actually got to hear Janice at "The Cellar" on Market Square in Houston by a fortunate happenstance as a 18 year old and it was awesome.....but this is phenomenal
Incredible recording......I'd love to find this on vinyl
Ebay???????? 🤔
🌬🎸❤💐💐 me born raised SF 1960s. Haight ASHBURY
Wow. Just: "Wow."
w5winston double ditto.
🌬🎶🎸❤💐
Janis for ever! The best female singer in rock and blues music.RIP Janis.A french fan.
Why why why do the French always have to state that they are french? Geeez.
Merci muchacho velascuez!
Really good Blues and Jazz with a hint of Country Blue Grass, Janis was unique.
She was amazing. The audience, on the other hand, shows why we don't clab on the 1.
So great to hear how she channeled the old blues singers in the early days. Reverence and respect is evident.
Wow can’t believe this exists
What a find!
Missed her when I was going to coffee house in North Beach in 63. It was a bad time for rock and roll but a good time for folk music.
Did see her in Seattle in 67, but that's a long story.
It sure was a good time for Rock and Roll in England, though!
She was born great.
and 8 years later I mounted the same stage, feeling the echoes of the greats before me.....
she was great and she wasn't singing just for herself but for all of us. She was a real benefit for that time especially when at that age we were trying to find ourselves Soulwaker.
.
Just an anthological and historical masterpiece!
Incredible clarity for something that had to have been recorded on old analog equipment.
Absolutely amazing if this genuine.
Yeah, a lot of the coffee houses I played in the day set up a (mono, usually) reel to reel recorder and 2 or 3 mikes to captuure anything that was happening at the time.. Usually they eventually tossed them, or rather, recorded over them, unless they thought they worth preserving, or the performer wanted them, for the cost of the tape. Since there was another guitar playing along perhaps it was he who kept a copy, since if it was with Ms Joplins effects, we'd have heard about it much sooner, I'd expect..
WOW!! A voice, personality and talent that hasn't yet been duplicated. Janice, you're sorely missed.
"Anyone who sings a tune so sweet is passin' by..."

What de fg😆😆😆🇧🇿🇧🇿🇧🇿🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳🇧🇳
Her level of comittment to music and the transformative power it has never ceases to amaze me. She died b4 I was born, a high school buddy introduced me to her work. An incredibly talented, versatile, musician and performer. An American icon and priceless treasure, to be sure
Ma Rainey helped Bessie Smith, Janis loved both of these amazing women
She bought Bessie a headstone for her grave. I'll always miss u Janis & wonder 👏👏🎶🎶✍💜
Wonderful post. I’ve loved her gutsy voice since I first heard the BB Mainstream.
LP. It is a shame that she abused it later on, but that comes with the lifestyle. However, her singing on The posthumously released “Pearl” reveals a voice reborn, pure and gorgeous. Janis was a singular artist, a sensitive and highly intelligent young woman. Rest In Peace.
When Janis died, she took away my whole heart.
Wow what a voice it's seems like Robert Johnson spirit is here...Janis the Genius ✌️🕊
Wow, I had never heard her at this age and she already had that great ,strong throaty blues voice. She was so strong when she sang but her personality was so sweet, kind, shy and vulnerable. The combination made her irresistible. RIP Janice, we all love and miss you.
🎶🎶🎸❤ yes SF Fillmore West & Haight ASHBURY Golden Gate park & always high but.. but that's how she coped. 1960s girls getting braver.
God bless her.
Nice to see her so young. Never really got old but I see more in her face than ever before.
Can you imagine being alive at this time
If you ask the question in 2019 who is the queen of rock & roll the answer is still the same. No one has come along to steal it away.
Sister Rosetta Tharpe
Eye am sure Sista Rosetta would share the title with Janis and Janis would happily stand aside . That's what makes Janis, Janis 💜
Touched by God!...what a voice
Great early recordings of Janis.
So wonderful to hear--the clarity and power in her young voice! Love the audience response also--thanks for posting!
blanchefan ,u
🌬🎸🎶❤💐 down on me every day out the door of SENIORS Mobile Home park. Funny cuzzzz after 2 yrs they finally understand.
Thank you for this (more valuable than gold), music from our Janis❣️👏👍✌️I love you Janis and know you are still singing where ever you are and send you all my love, sweet spirit of love❣️You are amazing, RIP❣️🎤🎶🎸
Sounds like a Bob Dylan style concert with a golden early blues voice....amazing finding this recording ....youtube is really cool for discovering ....I just received 'a little piece of her heart again'
Far freakin' out, man - the queen of Blues, a spirit without bounds - the Pearl.
Straight into the mike, onto the tape, unadulterated.
A thousand thank you'd for posting this. She was such an old soul. I feel that i have been blessed to come across this.
THANK YOU !!!
Thank you for posting this unique bit of musical history. You can see why she made an impression. So young in this.. amazing.
Thanks She was born to sing
How great is this. Brilliant!!!!
OMG what a find. This is fantastic
No one ever has or I believe ever will match that voice.
Joplin was the real deal
OMG! She was Amazing! What a powerful singer and personality! She was not to be ignored. This is powerful! Thanks to whoever posted this as I didn’t know it even existed.
Oh my lord! I've been listening to Janice since she started making records when I was a kid in the 60s but the second she started singing here I got goosebumps and my heart started beating faster. Talk about coming straight from the soul. Of course I always thought so but I've been listening to her for about 50 years now and I'm reminded here what a force of nature she really was.
That initial reaction is also mixed up with the knowledge that she was a something of a lost soul who never quite felt like she fit in and that surely was at the core of her untimely passing.
Such magnificence along with such sadness!
Such a sweet person and so talented!
Exquisite. We're very fortunate that this history was preserved on tape.
Someone had great foresight. Currently reading Janis- Her life and music.
R.I.P Queen Janis
she channels blues here, before she became an act soooooooooooooo pure. Gibson J-50 too,
Light'n Hopkins loved these guitars
I love you forever Janis💓
At 20 years Janis was already great. Love her ❤❤❤
Thank you Janis.
Extraordinary. She's 20 and sounds like a blues singer from the deep south 40 years before she was born. I prefer this, her early voice, to the banshee style of her later years.
Appreciate this a lot. Damn, she's good. Talent. With her own guitar? Never saw her play.
Really I can't believe some of her turn arounds and some of her cord work
There are at least two guitars audible, and I'm not sure that JJ played either of them.
🌬🎶🎸❤💐💐💐
Mind blown.
Wow, a future mega star doing her homework and she sounds wonderful!
very impressive, she was a real house rocker compared to the usual fare on the folk scene.
This is treasure, thank you for posting this.
There was some deep hidden pain in her voice, I'll cry her leaving until my last day. Now she hangs out with the greatest in the parthenon of heaven. Long live Janis my shooting star!
Heaven is for the one who repents.
@@melindalemmon2149 ok, I repent
dead is dead, nice you have a poetic imagination.
AshCliff Garcia If there's a Rock & Roll Heaven, you know they gotta a hell of a band. And it's growing every year, unfortunately. : < (
@Debbie Smith She doesn't know; she's just being a dickhead. What a smug person.
"It never fails" dept. ...When the audience starts clapping
on the wrong beat and you jes' hafta go with it
Luv you girl, wherever you might be
What a pair of lungs!!
so wonderful we have these early live recordings of Janis. really shows her rare and beautiful gift.
Great stuff ! Saw her live in 68 with Quicksilver. Man I love this Mississippi delta blues... Never heard these recordings.
You either have IT, or you don't, Janis had a triple dose if not more, THIS is great.
Only photo I've seen of her holding a guitar. I didn't know she played one - doesn't surprise me though.
Not her playing she has several playing for her☺
I think she played banjo also
She did play acoustic guitar and, before she recorded it, she performed “Me and Bobby McGee” live just her and her playing guitar.
🌬🎶🎶❤💐 yes 🎸 in SF 1960s I'd see her Haight ASHBURY & 🎸
