TO LOVE SOMEBODY by Janis Joplin chords
Start Jamming...
I'm delighted that Janice Joplin is back.
I would like to read you a few lines from Newsweek magazine.
Wait a minute
Oh right here in my untidy desk
You remember there's a terrific picture of Janice.
Maybe she doesn't think so
I should have cleared away this on Newsweek's cover some weeks back and Janice is
The time there's an article called rebirth of the blues and in it someone said at the first and now historic
1967 Monterey International Pop Festival a volatile vial of nitroglycerin named Janice Joplin blew the rock world wide open
Singing with a tortured passion that has become her trademark
She unleashed Big Mama Thornton's classic ball and chain and since then this 26 year old white girl from Port Arthur
Texas has gone on to be the first female superstar of rock music and she is will you welcome Janice Joplin?
