Mobile Fidelity

Janis Joplin was an iconic American singer-songwriter known for her powerful and soulful voice. Born in 1943, she rose to fame in the late 1960s as the lead vocalist of the band Big Brother and the Holding Company. Joplin's raw and emotional performances made her a symbol of counterculture and female empowerment. With hits like "Piece of My Heart" and "Me and Bobby McGee," she left an indelible mark on rock music. Tragically, Joplin passed away at the age of 27, but her legacy as one of the greatest voices in rock history lives on.

Established in 1977, Mobile Fidelity (MFSL) is a renowned label specializing in remastering major-label music for the discerning "audiophile" market. With CD releases starting in 1984, MFSL has become synonymous with high-quality sound reproduction.

Known for their meticulous attention to detail, MFSL releases often feature unchanged copyright dates from the original release. However, most of their releases are issued a year or so later. The first Gold Ultradisc™ CD was introduced in February 1987, followed by the Gold Ultradisc II™ (Made in USA) CD in September 1992.

MFSL takes pride in their branded labels and ensures that all their releases are remastered by their own Sound Labs. Their catalog of releases can be found on the "Sites" section. Notably, limited editions were prevalent during the label's early years and featured an information sticker on the shrink wrap. Additionally, numbered retail copies often had corresponding unnumbered promotional versions.

The lavish packaging and gorgeous presentation of this Pearl pressing also befit its extremely select status. Housed in a deluxe box, Mobile Fidelity's UD1S version contains special foil-stamped jackets and faithful-to-the-original graphics that illuminate the splendor of the recording. No expense has been spared. Aurally and visually, this reissue exists a curatorial artifact meant to be preserved, touched, and examined. It is made for discerning listeners that prize sound quality and creativity, and who desire to fully immerse themselves in the art – and everything involved with the album, from the images to the textures.
