BIG BROTHER THE HOLDING COMPANY - Cheap Thrills

Item Description

Vinyl, , Gatefold
LP Album

Released in a gatefold cover on a red 360° sound label with BLACK lettering (except for "COLUMBIA" and the trademark print at bottom of label, which are in white). Subsequent pressings have different label designs and/or catalogue numbers.

Durations are not listed on the release, but were taken from files ripped directly from the vinyl.

Although Janis Joplin has a release-wide vocal credit (and indeed sings on every song), on the individual song credits, only 'Sam' is credited for vocals on Tracks A1 and B2.

Track A3 is incorrectly credited to Gershwin Bros. on the front cover, though the label correctly credits George Gershwin and DuBose Heyward.
Track B3 is credited to W. M. Thornton on the label, and "Big Mama" Thornton on the front cover.

Live material recorded at Bill Graham's Fillmore Auditorium. Turtle Blues "Vibes" courtesy of Barney's Beanery. Approved By Hell's Angels Frisco.

Stereo "360 Sound". Manufactured by Columbia Records/CBS, Inc. Litho in Canada. Printed in Can. Rear cover photo © Thomas Weir 1967.
