		Big Brother was formed in 1965 in the Haight-Ashbury; by the time Joplin joined in mid-1966, the lineup was Sam Andrew and James Gurley on guitar, Peter Albin on bass, and David Getz on drums.
		But Big Brother wasn't superfluous to the effort, interpreting folk and blues with an inventive (if sometimes sloppy) eclecticism that often gave way to distorted guitar jamming, and matching Joplin's passion with a high-spirited, anything-goes ethos of their own.
		Big Brother catapulted themselves into national attention with their performance at the Monterey Pop Festival in June 1967, particularly with Joplin's galvanizing interpretation of "Ball and Chain" (which was a highlight of the film of the event).

		BIG BROTHER AND THE HOLDING COMPANY were exhausted when they crashed into their hometown of San Francisco to play a weekend of dates - dates that produced Live at Winterland '68.
		Their tumultuous performance at the Monterey Pop Festival the year before had propelled Big Brother to national prominence, and they were in the midst of recording Cheap Thrills, an anguishing process.
		At the same time that singer Janis Joplin was being hailed as a rising superstar, the band - guitarists Sam Andrew and James Gurley, bassist Peter Albin and drummer David Getz - were being pummeled by critics for its lack of technical chops.

		Big Brother & the Holding Company was one of the first major bands to emerge from the nascent psychedelic music scene in San Francisco, CA, in the mid-'60s.
		After Joplin joined the band, Big Brother & the Holding Company became major stars, and their album Cheap Thrills became one of the touchstones of the early San Francisco sound, but Joplin's presence proved to be both a blessing and a curse.
		Her powerful vocals on tunes like "Piece of My Heart" and "Ball and Chain" helped make the group a hit, but once the music press singled out Joplin as the star of the show, the bandmembers soon found themselves in the shadow of their singer, even after she left the band to go solo.

		One of the most eagerly awaited albums in rock history, Big Brother & the Holding Company's 1968 major label debut (they'd previously released one thinly produced collection on the small Mainstream label) made good on all the hype generated by Janis Joplin's amazing performance at the Monterey Pop Festival the year before.
		One of her favorites was Big Brothers' "Cheap Thrills." I got the album on cassette back in 1988 or so and fell in love with it myself.
		Big Brother was the best band Janis ever fronted and their instrumental prowess wrapped around Janis' vocal acrobatics perfectly.

		After all the hoopla of signing with Columbia, using one of the best producers in the business and the well-spread reviews of dozens of limp-limbed and sweaty-brow reviewers who have seen Big Brother and Holding Company in performance, one would expect slightly more than what we have gotten.
		The record is a good representation of Big Brother and the Holding Company, as good a one as could have been expected and as good a one as there ever will be.
		It is also a fair approximation of the San Francisco scene in all its loud, exciting, sloppy glory, and for those who groove to it, the record should be adequate.

	Rhinoceros History
		Not only that but the band had taken a bold move by recording the entire album in live takes, no mean feat, as most bands at the time were doing overdubs on all of their albums.
		Perhaps in anticipation of the assault on the East Coast, Rhinoceros relocated to the Big Apple in early September and were immediately put up in the infamous Chelsea Hotel, where the group stayed for three months.
		Penrod's initial replacement was Danny's 17-year-old brother Steve (an equipment manager for the group), but he didn't have the musical credentials to be anything other than a stopgap.
