Janis Joplin - Pearl - 1971
The front cover, photographed by Barry Feinstein in Los Angeles, shows Joplin reclining on her Victorian era loveseat with a drink in her hand.
The back cover shows the Full Tilt Boogie Band who accompanied her on the Festival Express, a concert tour by train of Canada, in the summer of 1970.
Joplin sang on all tracks except 'Buried Alive in the Blues', which remained a Full Tilt Boogie instrumental because she died before adding vocals, but she approved the instrumental track. The recording sessions, starting in early September, ended with Joplin's untimely death on October 4, 1970. Her final session, which took place on Thursday, October 1 after a break of several days, yielded her a cappella 'Mercedes Benz'.
