Box Of Pearls
$39.99
Wild fragility.....in a box!! - Five discs, five stars..five reasons to embrace this work:talent, cruelty, loneliness, beauty and...the voice..the voice that knew despise pain and succumbed to alcohol and the proximity of what was supposed unattainable ....
A Real Jewel - The first concert I ever attended in my life was seeing Janis perform at Cal Expo, in Sacramento, just a few weeks prior to her death. I had been a fan since I was about 13, much to the dismay of my parents, who found her voice untenable -- well, Mom & Dad, this boxed set of just about everything Janis Joplin ever recorded will bring it all back for you -- just as it did for me -- except that I love every cry and screech and note of emotion with the same devoted passion today as I did 40 years ago.Not only does this collection give us Janis in all her shouting glory from her days with Big Brother and the Holding Company, but we get a sense of her transition into her more bittersweet period of ballads and introspective songwriting that dominated her last years from the albums I Got Dem Ol Kozmic Blues Again Mama! and Pearl. Since all four of her original studio releases have been digitally remastered for the CDs in this box set -- and each album supplemented with previously unreleased bonus tracks and outtakes -- if you have Janis in your heart you now can have her forever in your ears. Like Janis sings Get It While You Can....
old rocker - everything i thought if would be. great artist, hours of great listening
It s clear why my friend claims Janis as her Queen - Though, if my friend hadn t suggested I buy this collection of records, it is a sign, we don t always know what it is we are looking for. Lucky for me, the breatth of this angel was blown into my ear.
Must Have - This is a must have for the Janis fans. Alot of music for a low price!
