Notes

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 A2 is incorrectly spelled "Y NEED A MAN TO LOVE" on cover, correct on lable "I NEED A MAN TO LOVE"

Front cover is the Photos that is on the original back cover and says "JANIS JOPLIN BIG BROTHER THE HOLDING COMPANY"

Spine says " CLS 4203" and " CHEAP THRILLS" and " CBS S.A" but no name of the artist.
