What struck me about Pearl upon listening to it again recently, is the authenticity of the music. Some reviewer once claimed that rock merely gets stale whereas pop music rots with time. There is nothing stale about Joplin and her band on this all-time classic. After all these years, it remains a magnificent listening experience because of the quality of the songs, the band's tight playing and the impressive emotional range of Joplin's vocals. Unlike on Cheap Thrills, where there was mostly a cosmic battle between her voice and Big Brother's heavy metal onslaught, here the voice is the star. My favourites on an album of classics include the incredible Me and Bobby McGee, the tender A Woman Left Lonely, the nervous Half Moon, the emotional Cry Baby, the buoyant Get It While You Can and the plaintive/humorous Mercedes Benz. Perfect arrangements, brilliant playing and masterly vocalization combine here to create a timeless masterpiece.

For me personally this album has heart-wrenching memories. But more than nostalgia, it perfectly embodies its epoch -- just as Joplin embodied everything that was good and bad in the stellar sixties. Her voice is haunting, her material golden.

Nostalgia at its best
This is, in my opinion, the best album of Janis Joplin. She really made good with her strong raunchy voice. After all this time it still weaves it's spell on me.

It Stands as Her Memorial
"Pearl," (1971), is one of the most legendary of recordings. It was, sadly, posthumously released, as Janis Joplin, its greatly-talented maker, died of a heroin overdose on... Read more

Bring back Big Bro & the Holding Co.
For me Janis's albums (not bootlegs or compliations) split down the middle - those with Big Bro & the Holding Co and those without. Read more

This is truly a quite fantastic album. Aesthetically, conceptually and for the first time in Janis's career, technically, near unimpeachable, it succeeds where 'Cheap Thrills'... Read more
