Her voice was equal parts tough and vulnerable, a shout into the void that resonated with a generation. Happy birthday, Janis Joplin. You were a rock & roll woman, a blues singer of unparalleled passion and the greatest white female per­former to emerge from the tempest 1960s. We miss you. rockhall.lnk.to/Janis | Rock & Roll Hall of Fame
