What Good Can Drinkin' Do - 1962 Young Janis Joplin​




Done at a friends house in December 1962 its first song Janis ever recorded. Early Janis Joplin showing off a different side of her voice. Record Collector cites her intro to the song: Up steps a feisty young woman, one month short of her twentieth birthday. "Uh, this is a song called 'What Good Can Drinkin' Do', that I wrote one night after drinkin' myself into a stupor..."

use LiveOne formerly Slacker Radio and I stream my music. I pay for the premium witch allows me to make as many play lists as I want and save albums too. Right now currently have 97 play lists and 54 albums saved, all are classic rock from 60s-80s as well as any new music by AC/DC and Scorpions

Right now it is $2.99 a month if you pay for year's subscription.

My dad put a 4 track tape deck in his 67 Bonneville. The three tapes I remember he had was that of Trini Lopez, Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison and Al Hirt
 

My dad was an electrical engineer for General Electric. I dropped out of college in ‘73 and he got me a grunt job at GE. I had a ‘65 Mustang and he fixed me up with a good sound system in my car. I had cassettes which were fairly new at the time. My dad had a cassette recorder and I could borrow my buddies albums and dad would record them on cassettes. Needless to say, I was a popular guy on Eldorado St. back in the 70s.
 

In 1956, I bought this '78' record of "Honky Tonk" by Bill Doggett. At one point I played it for an hour, flipping from Side One to Side Two, over and over again--to the total dislike from my parents.
The break between Side One and Side Two occurs (without a break) at the 3 minute mark.

My dad wouldn’t let me buy any of that “long-haired hippy music” when I was a kid. I have a lot of Johnny Cash albums. Dad was into Sinatra and the crooners, so I have those albums too.
But my 45s are good stuff. I guess the artist names didn’t bother him as much as the album covers.
