• Janis Joplin left us forty years ago, on 4th October 1970. On this powerful live album, Beverly Jo Scott revisits, in her own inimitable way, the classics of her long-time sister-in-arms, alongside lesser-known Joplin gems and a handful of songs by Joplin’s favourite artists (Dylan, Otis Redding, Billie Holiday…)

• Born in Alabama, in the heart of the deep south, Beverly Joe Scott grew up with rock, blues and country. Her keen and heartfelt writing, the emotional weight of her voice make her one of the most popular American artists in Europe. Beverly Jo Scott is living proof that rock music still has a heart and a soul.

• “For years I’ve wanted to create a tribute performance to this ghost of a girl who so influenced my preadolescence. I wanted to show another side of Janis than that of the whiskey bottle and the rebel attitude. She was educated, intelligent and avant-garde.....She is still the ultimate reference for women in rock”. - Beverly Jo Scott.

• This is the still hugely under-rated Beverly Jo Scott at her peak, burning the stage with an urgency that makes you think the spirit of Janis is watching over her. Let the legend live on…
