The sessions took place in Los Angeles and paired Joplin with the group she had toured with. Produced by Paul A. Rothchild, it includes the Kris Kristofferson and Fred Foster song 'Me and Bobby McGee' and Joplin originals. The album was released after her death. This indie-exclusive vinyl record is pressed on limited-edition Pink Splatter vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e'Move Over,' written by Joplin, opens with an insistent rock rhythm and a demand for honesty in a troubled relationship. 'Cry Baby' lets her shift from a restrained invitation to full-voiced declarations, while 'A Woman Left Lonely' builds from a quieter beginning into a forceful soul performance. Her version of 'Me and Bobby McGee' moves from conversational verses into a communal refrain. 'Mercedes Benz' is an unaccompanied vocal performance, recorded shortly before her death, that satirizes material desires.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Full Tilt Boogie Band supports Joplin with guitar, keyboards, bass, and drums on blues, rock, and soul songs. 'Buried Alive in the Blues' remains instrumental because Joplin died before recording its vocal. 'Get It While You Can,' previously recorded by Howard Tate, closes with an appeal to value love while it lasts. Rothchild oversaw the final production after her death.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl LP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandout tracks:\u003c\/strong\u003e Me and Bobby McGee, Cry Baby, Move Over, Mercedes Benz, Get It While You Can\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressing details:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indie Exclusive, Limited Edition, Pink Splatter Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre\/style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blues Rock, Classic Rock, Soul Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 199584611013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePearl\u003c\/em\u003e topped the Billboard 200, and 'Me and Bobby McGee' reached No. 1 as a single.
