This Is Janis Joplin 1965 is an album by Janis Joplin released by James Gurley in 1995.

Record history

Recorded originally in 1965, the seven tracks that appear here are all previously unreleased, including Joplin's 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. The original takes of these songs have been released on the 9 disc compilation Blow All My Blues Away.

In a similar contrast to the bootleg album, The Typewriter Tape, Joplin's voice has not been damaged by the abuse in the years to come from alcohol and drugs.
