After a relatively obscure indie debut album, Big Brother's unforgettable appearance at the Monterey Pop Festival led to CHEAP THRILLS, their major label bow. Its R. Crumb cover art made it a visual standout, but the visceral power contained within heralded Janis Joplin's arrival as a new countercultural blues-rock diva. Partially recorded live at San Francisco's Fillmore, CHEAP THRILLS showed Joplin's affinity for the blues, as she effortlessly covered the standard "Summertime" as well as her heroine Big Mama Thornton's "Ball & Chain." Band conflicts caused by Joplin's high profile within the group resulted in her leaving soon afterward for a solo career.

Originally released on Columbia (9700).

Includes liner notes by John Byrne Cooke.

Full performer name: Big Brother & The Holding Company.

Producer: John Simon.

Reissue producer: Bob Irwin.

Engineers include: Fred Catero, Jerry Hochman, Roy Segal.

2 LPs on 1 CD: Big Brother & The Holding Company's CHEAP THRILLS (1968)/Janis Joplin's PEARL (1970).

Additional personnel: John Simon (piano).

Entertainment Weekly (10/1/99, p.75) - "...a blues-rock apotheosis, with Joplin's primal scream scraping up against Big Brother's willfully deranged, acid-stoked boogie..." - Rating: A-
Q (11/99, p.156) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...a raw fiery collection that includes the hits 'Piece Of My Heart', 'Summertime' and 'Ball & Chain'..."

Cheap Thrills album
CD $15.79  4.6 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players. DARK SIDE OF THE MOON was a benchmark record. It turned the musical world on its ear with a hitherto unseen combination of sounds, and changed things considerably for Pink Floyd. For this project, Pink Floyd resurrected older and unfinished numbers, some of which came from the multitude of soundtracks the band members had previously worked on. The film ZABRISKIE POINT, a study of American materialism from ...

This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players. Probably the most critically revered band of the 70s, Steely Dan's brand of slick pop with a dose of jazz/funk left a meagre but vital catalogue to cling on to. This was their last gasp at the onset of the 80s. Perhaps they were aware ...

This is a Super Audio CD playable only on Super Audio CD players This is a Super Audio CD playable only on Super Audio CD players. A truly inventive Aerosmith album, still suffused with a gloriously raspy sense of the blues, but quietly evocative in its timbre and approach. It showed Tyler working out lyrics that were so much more than simple cars and girls fodder, 'Adam's Apple' theorizing that creation could quite possibly have occurred with an alien mothership landing on earth and setting the wheels of the human race in motion. 'Sweet Emotion' throbbed slowly into life, 'Big Ten Inch Record', a salty R&B work-out, while ...

This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players. The definitive rock opera, TOMMY liberated the Who from a "singles band" stigma, marking them as a substantial artistic force. Composer Pete Townshend had flirted with the conceptual format on two previous releases, but here his vision is spread over two ambitious records that play to the Who's main strengths. Anthems such as the raucous "Pinball Wizard" and the surprisingly ...
