Saturday would have been Joplin's 65th birthday. She died of a drug overdose on Oct. 4, 1970. Joplin was 4 when her family moved into the house that now has the marker. The family moved out in 1975. Her first childhood home was torn down in 1980. Fans still come by the house, said Alicia Sanchez, 48. When she moved into the house about 10 years ago, she didn't know anything about its former occupants. She doesn't let strangers inside, but said she doesn't mind people taking pictures in the front yard.

siteVersion = "HTML"; legacyFBMLPopup = "false"; adCall.writeCall('728x90'); Janis Joplin Read More Featured Mega Force Posted 1/29/07 Posted 1/6/03 Full Biography Joplin's first album, I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama!, was recorded with the Kozmic Blues Band, a unit that included horns and retained just one of the musicians that had played with her in Big Brother (guitarist Sam Andrew). Although it was a hit, it wasn't her best work; the new band, though more polished musically, was not nearly as sympathetic accompanists as Big Brother, purveying a soul-rock groove that could sound forced. That's not to say it was totally unsuccessful, boasting one of her signature tunes in "Try (Just a Little Bit Harder)." For years, Joplin's life had been a roller coaster of drug addiction, alcoholism, and volatile personal relationships, documented in several biographies. Musically, however, things were on the upswing shortly before her death, as she assembled a better, more versatile backing outfit, the Full Tilt Boogie Band, for her final album, Pearl (ably produced by Paul Rothchild). Joplin was sometimes criticized for screeching at the expense of subtlety, but Pearl was solid evidence of her growth as a mature, diverse stylist who could handle blues, soul, and folk-rock. "Mercedes Benz," "Get It While You Can," and Kris Kristofferson's "Me and Bobby McGee" are some of her very best tracks. Tragically, she died before the album's release, overdosing on heroin in a Hollywood hotel in October 1970. "Me and Bobby McGee" became a posthumous number one single in 1971, and thus the song with which she is most frequently identified. ~ Richie Unterberger, All Music Guide

Janis Joplin biography Janis Joplin, biography of an artist that is still today considered one of the most talented Blues artists in the world. Read the biography of the girl who lived hard and died fast, leaving us with only her voice. Janis Joplin was born January 19, 1943, in Port Arthur, Texas to Seth and Dorothy Joplin. The oldest child of a working class family, Janis grew up in an oil refinery town, and was labeled "eccentric" by all who came in contact with her. Nonetheless, her parents saw immense artistic talent in Janis, and urged her to explore and cultivate her gift. Socially outcast by the time she was 14, Janis admittedly retreated into a private world of art and music, studying the sounds of blues legends like Huddie "Leadbelly" Ledbetter and Bessie Smith. By the time Joplin turned 18 years old, she was already singing in local country western clubs in Austin and Houston, Texas. Though completely consumed by her love of the blues, Janis enrolled in and attended Lamar State College of Technology and the University of Texas at Austin. She would drop out in 1963, with plans to sing folk and blues songs in Texas clubs. Late in 1963, Joplin hitchhiked to California, where she became a part of the hippie movement in San Francisco. She quickly became a favored regular in San Francisco and Venice Beach coffeehouses and clubs. After two years in California, Janis was out of control, however, abusing alcohol and amphetamines daily. She returned home to Port Arthur, Texas and her family for inspiration and encouragement. Re-enrolling in college, Janis excelled in school, but never seemed content. She questioned her life's direction and attempted to fit in in her native hometown.

Friends Janis Joplin in Relationships Janis Joplin responds very strongly to the emotional tone and atmosphere around her, and can be dominated by her fluctuating and unpredictable moods. Joplin often appears irrational to others because she cannot always explain the reason or source of her feelings. Anyone who lives with Janis Joplin must accept her ups and downs and appreciate Janis' need for times of withdrawal. Janis Joplin is also very sympathetic and understands the unspoken feelings and needs of others. Janis Joplin takes slights and rebuffs very personally and though she may forgive a transgression by a friend or loved one, she never forgets it. She is emotionally expressive and often dramatizes her feelings, acting them out or blowing them out of proportion. Janis Joplin cannot hide her instinctive emotional reactions to people or situations, and she does not make any pretenses about her personal sympathies or antipathies.
