Pearl is the fourth album by Janis Joplin, released posthumously on Columbia Records, catalogue PC 30322, in January of 1971. It was the final album with her direct participation, and the only Joplin album recorded with the Full Tilt Boogie Band, her final touring unit. It peaked at #1 on the Billboard 200, holding that spot for nine weeks. It has been certified quadruple platinum by the RIAA.

The album has a more polished feel than the albums she recorded with Big Brother and the Holding Company and the Kozmic Blues Band due to the expertise of producer Paul A. Rothchild and her new backing musicians. Rothchild was best known as the producer of The Doors, and worked well with Joplin. Together they were able to craft an album that showcased her extraordinary vocal talents. The Full Tilt Boogie were the musicians who accompanied her on the famous Festival Express in the summer of 1970, and many of the songs on this album were introduced on the concert stage in Canada.

Pearl features the hits "Me and Bobby McGee" written by Kris Kristofferson and Fred Foster, and "Move Over," written by Joplin. Joplin sings on all of the tracks except "Buried Alive in the Blues", which remained an instrumental as she died before being able to add her vocals. The recording sessions, which began in early September, ended with Joplin's untimely death on October 4, 1970. The iconic album cover shows Joplin reclining on her Victorian Era loveseat with a drink in her hand, conveying that this is Janis Joplin as she really is.

 

Pearl – album Janis Joplin, wydany 1 lutego 1971, cztery miesiące po jej śmierci. Jest to jej czwarty album i pierwszy nagrany z Full Tilt Boogie.

Ma bardziej staranny, gładki feeling, niż albumy nagrane z Big Brother & the Holding Company, lub z The Kozmic Blues Band, co jest zasługą producenta Paula A. Rothchilda oraz jej nowych muzyków. Rothchildowi, który był znany głównie jako producent The Doors, dobrze pracowało się z Janis. Razem zdołali lepiej oddać jej talenty wokalne. The Full Tilt Boogie zagrali razem z Janis na słynnym festiwalu Festival Express w lecie 1970, a wiele piosenek z tego albumu zostało zaprezentowanych na koncertach w Kanadzie.

Pearl zawiera hity takie jak "Me and Bobby McGee" (wydany na singlu z "Half Moon" na stronie B) autorstwa Krisa Kristoffersona i Freda Fostera, oraz słynny, śpiewany a capella "Mercedes Benz" (napisany z Michaelem McClurem i Bobem Neuwirthem), czy "Move Over", który napisała sama. Janis śpiewa we wszystkich utworach z wyjątkiem "Buried Alive in the Blues", który pozostał instrumentalny, ponieważ zmarła nie zdążywszy nagrać ścieżek wokalnych. Sesje nagraniowe, które rozpoczęły się we wczesnym wrześniu, przerwała nagła śmierć Janis 4 października 1970. Ikoniczna okładka płyty przedstawia autorkę półleżącą na swojej wiktoriańskiej małej dwuosobowej kanapie z drinkiem w ręce, sprawiającą wrażenie, że jest to Janis Joplin taka, jaką naprawdę jest. W 2003 album został sklasyfikowany na 122. miejscu listy 500 albumów wszech czasów wg magazynu Rolling Stone.
