My Buddie's racecar paintjob by his wife was Joplin-inspired.
Janis' mug is on the decklid.

"Summertime" is one of my favorites, even though it's not "hers".

To each their own. Some people like that hag GaGa or WTF ever the horseface calls herself.

Scary heroin hag. Sorry, I just don't see (or hear) any reason for the fame she apparently achieved with her "fans". Neutral. Never have.

She owned more than one. She had a yellow C hardtop, I think a 64. I know this because I almost bought it in 1981-2. It was out of some car museum that had gone broke, and as I remember they were asking all of $6500 for it. It had a giant wasp nest in the engine compartment, and the car was kinda scruffy (I don't suppose she was real careful about oil changes and valve adjustments), but it was complete and drove real well.

I got to the point where we were at the salesman's desk and he was starting to do the paperwork (I saw the title with her name on it) when I chickened out, mostly because that was more money than could imagine owing the bank back then. Probably a huge mistake.
