Janis Joplin w. Big Brother and the Holding Company



Uploaded by: octogon7
Video Description:
"Combination of the Two" performed live at Montery closes out this clip from "Nine Hundred Nights." It was not included in the Pennebaker concert film "Monterey Pop." Instead, a lingering powerful closeup of Janis singing "Ball and Chain" was used to represent Big Brother and the Holding Company's performance at this landmark 1967 festival. Also here, surviving band members Sam Andrews, David Getz and Peter Albin discuss the good and the bad of their experiences at Monterey. The documentary this clip is taken from, "Nine Hundred Nights," also features interviews with James Gurley, Janis Joplin, Nick Gravenites, Lenny Kaye and Ellen Willis, with narration by Rip Torn. Produced by Multiprises. Directed by Michael Burlingame of the Control Group.

That's Dave Getz, the drummer. He's saying how excited the band was to be in this big movie-- Monterey Pop-- but when they went to the premiere "it was just Janis. The band wasn't in the movie."

It is, though the new one contains outtake performances, more Jimi and Otis Redding, and commentary that wasn't in the original.

I want to direct this to the people who don't know what the hell they're talking about. Do you know that you all would still be listening to "Bubble Pop" if it wasn't for people like Janis? She knew what she wanted and she didn't let any one stand in her way! Janis, Garcia and three others started the counter culture revolution in San Fran. I love all them all! Grow up! Or Don't Listen!

Everyone has a right to there own opinion, but to talk trash about the dead is very childish. I personally Love her voice. Her songs have real emotion. I have never been a big fan of artist who just sing with there pretty voices but never show any emotion, sometimes you have to just let your hair down. I am also a big fan of Stevie Nicks as well, I think that Janis would have loved her.
THANKYOU, someone ... ( 10 months ago by sara31tx)
THANKYOU, someone who finally understands music. Robert Plant is a cousin of mine along with a couple of more famous artist. I think the problem is some people only listen to music instead of feeling the music. I think people who talk trash about certain artist are jealous.There are artist I do not care for, but I do not make a point to let everyone know that I do not like them, I just don't listen to them.

i love ball and chain man, and have been listing to it for many years. the britney spears stuff is a weird reference, but, ehh, kind of amusing that you think i would listen to commercials like that...
Not true. The fact ... ( 6 months ago by plkncd)
Not true. The fact is that Janis did not know how to ROCK before Big Brother taught her. That is just a fact. Before the band took her in, she was a rather mediocre folksinger. When she took the bad advice to leave the group and become the second Billy Holiday, she cut off her roots. And everyone knows the rest of the story.
Just to clarify my ... ( 6 months ago by plkncd)
Just to clarify my comment below--don't mistake me, I loved Janis. But the best album she did was Cheap Thrills, not Cosmic Blues, not Pearl. She needed them and they needed her. Likewise, neither Lennon nor McCartney were as great once they killed the Golden Goose.

Janis was amazing and she pulled of Kozmic Blues very well and kicked ass on Pearl. But come on people, you have to admit...she sounded raw and real and incredible with BBHC.

I knew a Jazz singer in Kansas City who was 5 foot 2 and just as loud.
She never made it big because she didn't have a drug habit that caused her that pain. It is typical America that a person has to have some deep personal flaw to be a success whether it is President, a CEO, or a Music Star.

That's bullshit. In order to be successful, you have to have a shit-load of talent and even more luck. It's a shame that you're friend didn't get the credit she probably deserved, but if she had been invited to play at Monterey, it would have been her in this documentary, not Janis. Don't get me wrong, Joplin is an incredible performer. She's famous because she had the right talent for the right place in time, not because she did heroin.
Your right. Just ... ( 3 months ago by txmcxlx)
Your right. Just look at the President. You have to have something to be a drunken bum and yet be President of the USA. You can't apply for a job and be a drunk, but you can be President or a big hero.

Her drug habit was to sooth the pain. She had no friends in a small ytexas town and couldn't wait to get out.
Her heart was drop kicked across a thousand blazing deserts by male and female lovers. With no one to count on, booze and dope were ehr only friends. She wasn't sucessful because she had a drug habit. She had a drug habit because she was sucessful. Sometimes it's the only way forward. Been th
