Ironically, the album created around a fictitious being may well be her most personal and honest.Īlthough recording was not entirely completed before Joplin’s death in October 1970 (‘Buried Alive In The Blues’ appears sans vocals as a result), there was still enough material to create an LP. The cover itself featured Joplin as Pearl in full hippie get-up, sporting a pink, feathered headdress and reclining on a decadent lounge chair with a drink in hand. The role ‘Pearl’ was to play in Joplin’s life was existential – Pearl was in fact Joplin’s alter ego, a self-medication she used to deal with the stresses and strains of life as Janis Joplin. Those she could handle, and felt most at peace with, were themselves junkies and she watched as several fell victims to their addictions. Most likely the hardest role to play in Joplin’s career was that of a friend, as she found many either too overbearing or overruling. These factors were to play important roles in Joplin’s return to the needle and also to the main stage. UK / vinyl LP - £20.00, USD 25.40, € 23.‘Pearl’ was to arrive at a curious crossroad in Joplin’s career on one hand she was still dealing with mixed reactions to her departure from Big Brother, which some felt an arrogant move and others a perfectly timed decision, and on the other she had a gold-selling album with the Kozmic Blues Band, ‘I Got Dem Ol’ Kozmic Blues Again Mama!’ that was still no match to Joplin’s predecessor with Big Brother, ‘Cheap Thrills’ (the best-selling album of 1968 in the US).
