This Is Janis Joplin 1965 is an album by Janis Joplin released by James Gurley in 1995.
Recorded originally in 1965, the seven tracks that appear here are all previously unreleased, including Joplins original composition for her song Turtle Blues and an alternate version of Cod'ine by Buffy Sainte-Marie. Originally just Joplin and her guitar, a full band has been added to these tracks.
In a similar contrast to the bootleg album, The Typewriter Tape, Joplins voice has not been phased by the abuse she put herself through in the years to come with drugs and alcohol.
