Janis Lyn Joplin was born January 19, 1943 and died October 4, 1970. In between she led a triumphant and tumultuous life blessed by an innate talent to convey powerful emotion through heart-stomping rock-and-roll singing. Janis’s albums have gone gold, platinum, and triple-platinum. Her “Greatest Hits” album still tops the charts in Billboard. Several new releases have followed her death, with wide acclaim for her boxed set, “Janis.” She was the subject of a 1973 feature documentary, “Janis,” and numerous TV documentaries, the most notable being VH-1’s Legends program. She is currently the subject of two hotly contested biographical movie projects.
