Extra-Infos: .. It Is
Description:Big Brother gave Janis Joplin her start, she joined the band in 1966 and moved on in 1968. The album 'Be A Brother' was recorded in 1970 and 'How Hard It Is' in 1971. - .. IT IS
Digitally remastered two-fer containing a pair of albums by the legendary rockers. Big Brother is remembered as the band that gave Janis Joplin her start. They were originally formed in San Francisco in 1965, and Janis joined in 1966. By the end of 1968 Janis had moved on, And Big Brother never really fully recovered. In 1970 they recorded Be A Brother produced by Nick Gravenites and followed it in 1971 with the aptly titled How Hard It Is a much superior album. The instrumental 'Maui' and the song 'Shine On' are as good as anything Moby Grape and Quicksilver Messenger Service could conjure up. This is a striking record by an important band, but sadly after Janis they were completely overlooked.
"Be A Brother/How Hard It Is" auf CD vereint zwei zentrale Alben von Big Brother & The Holding Co, der legendären Psychedelic-Rock-Band aus San Francisco, in einer hochwertigen Wiederveröffentlichung von Floating World Records. Diese Edition bringt die charakteristische Mischung aus gitarrengetriebenem Westcoast-Rock, bluesigen Untertönen und frei fließender Jams noch einmal in klarer, druckvoller Klangqualität zur Geltung und richtet sich sowohl an Sammler klassischer Rockmusik als auch an neue Hörer, die den Sound der späten 1960er und frühen 1970er Jahre entdecken möchten. Die Zusammenführung von "Be A Brother" und "How Hard It Is" auf einer CD macht das Set zu einem kompakten Zeitdokument, das die kreative Phase der Band nach ihrem kommerziellen Durchbruch eindrucksvoll nachzeichnet.
Floating World Records ist ein auf liebevoll kuratierte Reissues spezialisiertes Label, das sich darauf konzentriert, teils schwer erhältliche Katalogtitel in sorgfältig aufbereiteter Form zugänglich zu machen. Mit detaillierter Recherche, respektvollem Umgang mit dem Originalmaterial und einem Fokus auf Klangqualität trägt das Label dazu bei, wichtige Kapitel der Rock-, Blues- und Roots-Geschichte dauerhaft verfügbar zu halten. Diese Veröffentlichung fügt sich nahtlos in das Profil des Herstellers ein, der Wert auf inhaltliche Substanz, Authentizität und Sammlerfreundlichkeit legt.
Big Brother & The Holding Co gehören zu den prägenden Formationen der San-Francisco-Psychedelic-Szene und erlangten vor allem durch ihre Zusammenarbeit mit Janis Joplin internationale Bekanntheit. Mit ihrem Durchbruchsalbum "Cheap Thrills" schrieben sie Rockgeschichte und trugen maßgeblich dazu bei, den Sound von Haight-Ashbury weltweit zu etablieren. Ihre Musik verbindet kraftvolle Gitarrenriffs, improvisatorische Freiheit und markante Vocals zu einem unverwechselbaren Stil, der zahlreiche Bands im Bereich Psychedelic, Hard Rock und Bluesrock beeinflusst hat. Auch jenseits ihres größten kommerziellen Erfolgs blieb die Band ein wichtiger Referenzpunkt für Fans und Kenner der späten 1960er-Jahre-Rockkultur, was Veröffentlichungen wie "Be A Brother/How Hard It Is" zu einem wertvollen Blick auf ihre weitere künstlerische Entwicklung macht.
