While the band proves to be mightily up to its task, Joplin's tortured, insistent, blues-soaked performances leave little doubt as to who's in charge here.\u003cbr\u003eWith her whisper-to-a-roar dynamics and multi-octave range, Janis and The Kozmic Blues Band bury listeners in the soul blues. Her take on the Gibb Brothers \"To Love Somebody\" is impossibly funky. If she needs to make sure her man loves her enough, she'll \"Try (Just A Little Bit Harder)\" to let him know how she feels. While whooping it up at a wild, happening party, she enjoys all the fun but is really just looking for \"One Good Man.\" Not many of the numerous Janis imitators in the US gained much notoriety, but it's certain that over in England, one Robert Plant was paying close attention.","brand":"InnerSleeve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42019093020837,"sku":"4260019713087","price":50.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/6007\/1077\/files\/b2a3dc2fb7000a99fe396e3dfc157dff.jpg?v=1777757140","url":"https:\/\/www.innersleeve.com\/products\/i-got-dem-ol-kozmic-blues-again-mama-1","provider":"InnerSleeve","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
