In this episode, we turn up the volume on Pearl, the final and most defining album of Janis Joplin’s remarkable career. Released just months after her death in 1970, Pearl captures both the wild, unfiltered energy and the heartbreaking vulnerability that made Janis a once-in-a-generation voice. We explore how she poured her soul into songs like “Cry Baby,” “Mercedes Benz,” and “Me and Bobby McGee,” crafting a record that feels both triumphant and tragically final.
