I feel like she wouldn't get any credit at all if she wasn't a part of the 27 club.
Maybe you're right about MB but no, Janis had legions of hippies and other music lovers all over her way before she died.



I have to give my vote to Billie Holiday though. Her opiate ridden psychic pain made everything she sang beautiful and I love her.
