  • Description

    This collection celebrates the career of a true R 'n' B and Rock 'n' Roll pioneer, and one who Janis Joplin recognised as a role model, not only as a singer, but in her uninhibited attitude to expressing her sexuality; she was known for her tough, uncompromising demeanour, her powerful, soulful voice, drank heavily, and was unafraid to dress in men's clothing.
