Golf's verdict: Deep, meaningful and introspective stuff from Mr Doggy Dogg. Not really. Fun though.

Maire's verdict: More melodic that I was expecting but kind of drifted over me.

Golf's verdict: The extraordinary voice is there and the songwriting is starting to really shine on this debut, particularly on the well observed 'Fuck Me Pumps', but it's a couple of steps behind the follow up. A fine album though.

Maire's verdict: Fantastic voice but album isn't as good as Back to Black.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheap_Thrills_(Big_Brother_and_the_Holding_Company_album)

Golf's verdict: HIDDEN GEM! Mainly on account of the extraordinary versions of 'Ball and Chain' and 'Summertime', but they have to be heard to be believed. Incredible singer, was Janis.

Maire's verdict: HIDDEN GEM! God, Janis had an amazing voice. I first heard 'Piece of My Heart' when it was theme to a Levis ad and adored it. Never listened to this album before but will definitely listen again.
