"I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama!" - Janis Joplin (voc); Cornelius "Snooky" Flowers, Terry Clements (sax); Luis Gasca (tr); Richard Kermode, Gabriel Mekler (org); Sam Andrew (g); Brad Campbell (b); Maury Baker, Lonnie Castille (dr), among others

When Janis Joplin died in October 1970 at the age of just 27, involuntarily living out the beatniks' motto “Live fast, love hard, die young,” being crowned queen of rock music could only remain a matter of time. But much more important than the posthumous integration into the Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame is the tribute formulated during her lifetime to her explosive vocal style, which "turns the entire history of singing on its head" ( Vogue ).
The discographic reality of Janis Joplin is just as short and changeable as her life. After two LP releases with the rock-standard band Big Brother And The Holding Company, whose excellent musical support earned them their first contract with Columbia in 1968, the company provided an expanded formation with an organ and brass instruments. The aim was to expand the expression of her voice with blues and funk elements, which die-hard fans perceived as a betrayal of the ideals of rock music. The old world rock community took a more relaxed view of this, especially since Joplin went on a two-month tour of Europe with the Kozmic Blues Band. And for Woodstock fans who can still hear the fat brass sound of this band and the bluesy-soul vocals, this album is a must listen anyway.

Tracklist:

A1 Try (Just A Little Bit Harder) 
A2 Maybe 
A3 One Good Man 
A4 As Good As You've Been To This World 
B1 To Love Somebody 
B2 Kozmic Blues 
B3 Little Girl Blue 
B4 Work Me, Lord
