Big Brother & The Holding Company w/Janis Joplin - Cheap Thrills [LP]

Cheap Thrills, the major-label debut of Janis Joplin, was one of the most eagerly anticipated, and one of the most successful, albums of 1968. Legendary blues and rock singer Janis Joplin first rose to stardom as the lead singer for San Francisco psychedelic band Big Brother & the Holding Company and maintained prominence later as a solo artist with her backing groups, The Kozmic Blues Band and The Full Tilt Boogie Band. Known as The Queen of Rock and Roll at the height of her career, Joplin redefined the role of women in music with her signature bluesy wail and electrifying stage presence, providing some of the most emotionally charged performances of her era. 180-gram audiophile vinyl Sourced from the original masters Album jacket recreated from original art TRACKLISTING: SIDE ONE Combination of the Two I Need A Man to Love Summertime Piece Of My Heart SIDE TWO Turtle Blues Oh, Sweet Mary Ball And Chain
