Rock ' n' Soul Queen Janis' outta hand vocals and charmingly sloppy backing bands blurred the lines between rock and blues.
Joplin owned a Porsche with a custom psychedelic paint job. It was once on display at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
Joplin died from too much rock ' n' roll during the recording sessions for "Pearl." She was twenty seven years old.
Joplin's biggest hit was released posthumously: her cover of Kris Kristofferson's "Me And Bobby McGee."
Attempts at making a Janis biopic have all failed. There is no one suited to portray her live performances. Find all your favorite Janis Joplin ringtones and Janis Joplin realtones below.
