68

Hard to imagine, but had Janis Joplin lived thru all these past years and not died of a heroin overdose, she would have turned 68 years old today.

We'll never know what other changes to music she could have brought us, what other songs she could have left us. We only have what little bit there was in her all too brief career.

Anyone who knows me, knows this tortured soul always has been and always will be my favorite female vocalist of all time.

Such a sad and tragic loss to such a wasteful way of dying.

Rest in peace, my friend.

You are so, so missed by so many of us.
