Jade - Dear Janis a tribute to Janis Joplin

Review by Nandang Solehudin

Jade's album Dear Janis is a heartfelt tribute to the legendary Janis Joplin. The album features 10 tracks, each showcasing Jade's powerful vocals and her deep admiration for Joplin's music. From the opening track "Piece of My Heart" to the closing ballad "Me and Bobby McGee," Jade delivers a soulful and authentic performance that captures the spirit of Joplin's music.

The album features a mix of Joplin's classic hits and lesser-known tracks, such as "Kozmic Blues" and "Half Moon." Jade's interpretation of these songs is both respectful and innovative, staying true to the original while adding her own unique flair. Her rendition of "Cry Baby" is particularly impressive, with her raw and emotive vocals perfectly capturing the song's intense emotion.
