Coincidentaly, like contemporaries such as Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison, the rock, blues and soul singer died at the age of 27.

De haber seguido viva Janis, hubiera seguido sacando disco tras disco de excelente calidad.
Seguramente, Javier. O tal vez se hubiera dedicado a la pintura como su contemporánea la Slick.
Un abrazo,

se nos fue la mas grande cantante de rock y blues...muy pocas...contaditas..cantan con esa pasion....
y ese timbre de voz medio carrasposo era su sello de fabrica de Janis...
una verdadera cantante a su max expresion...
descansa en paz..JANIS.
Hola Diabolikforce:
Una de esas contaditas podría haber sido Maggie Bell, la cantante de un grupo que se llamó Stone the Crows.
El recuerdo para Janis y el saludo par vos.
JL
