So sad she died too young.

Not sure how long she would have been performing. She went through several bands in a short period.

You can't take your eyes off of her, a wonderful stage presence. What a loss.

She didn’t need props. Just Janis.

First real rock concert I ever saw, her with Big Brother and the Holding Company.

Opening act was Blood, Sweat, and Tears.

edit to add:

Cleveland Public Hall

October 4, 1968. Two years to the day before she died.

She came to Pgh, but I was too young to drive and didn’t have a ride 😕. Would have loved to see her on stage.

she knew how to use it. I was in high school then and still see my choir director telling us that she would lose her voice in time if she kept singing like that.

And Marmaduke from NRPS. Weird but only Bob is still living.

Thanks for posting it

Saw her & them in lobby the next day. She was a tiny little thing

K&R

I saw her sing with Big Brother & the Holding Company several times at the old Fillmore Auditorium.

I especially love her version of Me & Bobby McGee..(It's up on You Tube)
