41. Pearl (1971) - Janis Joplin 94/100. I have heard Pearl on multiple occasions so I was pretty well versed in it. This listen around, I paid special attention to the music of Full Tilt Boogie Band. Joplin is a legendary singer and shined throughout the album and the band was fantastic. I have to say I am a bigger fan when she was with Full Tilt Boogie than Big Brother and the Holding Company. Also, having Paul Rothchild (from The Doors fame) produce paid dividends. It is a solid album throughout with the classics like Me and Bobby McGee and Mercedes Benz being as good as ever and gems like A Woman Left Lonely and the instrumental Buried Alive in the Blues nice deep tracks.
