My 1001 Albums Journey

A bit disappointed from the negative reviews of this album. For me it was smooth listening. Remember listening to "The drugs don't work" thinking about my aunt. R.I.P. 🙏🏻 4/5

"My friends all drive Porsches," sang Janis Joplin, and so did she - a 1964 356 SC Cabriolet that she bought when it was four years old and used as a daily driver. What made her car special, compared to other 356s was its psychedelic paint job, which was as flamboyant as her music and persona. Joplin is said to have paid her roadie, Dave Richards, $500 to decorate the light ivory car, portraying the "History of the Universe" in every colour of the rainbow. He did, starting with a coat of Candy Apple Red, then adding portraits of Joplin's "Big Brother and the Holding Company"band-mates and other motifs such as "The Eye of God" on the hood, and a California valley on the right door. This car is a tribute to that work of art painted by former GM designer, Nick Moskatow, for its current owner. Loved the iconic album from Janice Joplin 5/5

Music for Zen! Delicate notes, I enjoyed everything about this album. And now it's on my Lounge folder 4/5

Simply not appealing to me! Found it from time to time boring. 1/5

This album entertained me throughout! She creates an unique atmosphere and the well known "Running up that hill (a deal with God)" is the highlight of the entire album. "Cloudbusting", but "Jig of life " gives the Irish/folk touch that is always appreciated. To re-listen it again. 3.5/5
