Reviews"...a blues-rock apotheosis, with Joplin's primal scream scraping up against Big Brother's willfully deranged, acid-stoked boogie..." - Rating: A-, 4 stars out of 5 - "...a raw fiery collection that includes the hits 'Piece Of My Heart', 'Summertime' and 'Ball & Chain'..."
ThIs is debut album for Janice Joplin's band Big Brother & The Holding Company.
It is a mixture of live performances and studio recordings.
The sound is very compressed, which might seem a little harsh to modern ears, but Joplin's powerful vocals come storming through.
Some of the tracks are bit on the long side.
