Title: Intriguing insight into a talented artist's life...
Product review: Take it from one who was there, this biography of Janis Joplin is at the same time beautiful, intriguing and somewhat disturbing. She was such a talented, brave and courageous person that never received her just rewards. Most, except closest friends overlooked the milestones she created by challenging a closed system; both the record industry as well as society as a whole. The strides she made for women in the recording industry are felt to this day. Having met Janis in the late 60s, I can attest to the fact she was a very funny, exciting person to be around. Unfortunately, like most people, she also had a side she kept well hidden. I only wish she could have lived long enough to see what an icon she has become. Great read!
