Its R. Crumb cover art made it a visual standout, but the visceral power contained within heralded Janis Joplin s arrival as a new countercultural blues-rock diva. Partially recorded live at San Francisco s Fillmore, CHEAP THRILLS showed Joplin s affinity for the blues, as she effortlessly covered the standard Summertime as well as her heroine Big Mama Thornton s Ball & Chain. Band conflicts caused by Joplin s high profile within the group resulted in her leaving soon afterward for a solo career. · · · Track Listing · Combination Of The Two - with Big Brother & The Holding Company · I Need A Man To Love - with Big Brother & The Holding Company · Summertime - with Big Brother & The Holding Company · Piece Of My Heart - with Big Brother & The Holding Company · Turtle Blues - with Big Brother & The Holding Company · Oh, Sweet Mary - with Big Brother & The Holding Company · Ball And Chain - with Big Brother & The Holding Company
