She's married to Scott Ian too right?

Correct, she is married to Scott Ian and I heard a few tracks, it is good hard rock album.

I'm too lazy to look for it, but there's another thread 'round here with some opinions on this recording, among other things.

I heard some clips which were ok, but nothing that blew me away. Decent enough hard rock record. Sadly, it's probably getting more attention because of the famous folks connected with it than the music itself.

I'll probably have to pass on this one. Too much else I want.

Wouldn't really call this a hard rock record. Modern rock, sure, but no way is it hard rock in the traditional sense.

Yeah, I listened to the samples on Amazon and while there are definitely some hard rock songs on it, there were just as many "mellow" songs IMO.

Not bad at all but not something I feel the need to own.

She looks like a Janice Joplin wannabe.

Janis is awesome!!!!!!! definitely died way to young and way too soon. IMO Madonna should have stopped after the 80s thats just me though like its been said shes a great performer but not in the same caliber of singing as Janis. Just My opinion

Im listening to Pearl and I am definitly liking this she can sing, wouldnt surprise me if Janis was an influence on her. I only heard 2 songs and I loved what I heard.

Its funny you mentioned Beth Hart Toho I was thinking of a song I liked that I thought she did but it was Beth Orton lol

Criss and I are major Beth Hart fans. He turned me on to Dana Fuchs too. Same "Janis-y" vocals.

My wife is a big Janis fan she'd probobly dig both Pearl and Beth Hart

Its cool MB, Remember I dont like Led Zepplin and not a big big fan of Hendrix (I do recognize their accomplishments)

My OPINION is that you've been listening to too much crap pop music MB.

I'm with the others; Madonna is a great performer but her voice is crap IMO (note: IMO!!!!).

Janis sings with so much more "feel" and things in the music business were much less orchestrated back then. One of the things I admire about Madonna is her ability to reinvent herself from one era to the next but it's all so calculated IMO. She's trying to capitalize on what's commercially viable at a given point in time whereas Janis just sang from the soul.

You may not like Janis' voice and that's your opinion but there's no denying she sang from the heart. Unfortunately I think Madonna sings from "the market". That chameleon-like ability is a talent in itself but there's no comparing the sheer vocals between the two IMO.
