Oh Lord Ima Walk it Out


Janis Joplin's Mercedes Benz has always been a song which resonated for me. It's just so Hip-Hop. Check out this work in progress that includes Walk It Out.

PS: From my dear mother who didn't know you could comment comes this perfect description of not only Janis Joplin but my roots:

Dear mly,

You know that I knew Janis Joplin and lived briefly in the same house
with her (married to someone else) boyfriend (Travis Rivers). She was
really nice to me. I worked at the Avalon Ballroom where Big Brother
was the House Band, so I saw her a lot.

She always got involved with really creepy guys. She was a terrible
drunk and used to drink cheap wine constantly. But she sure could
sing!

Love,
Mom
