Janis. Me and Bobby McGee. I'm not much on the perfect/ manipulated tone.

Good one..

I prefer Big Brother - Peice of My Heart


but everything she does is great.

even the Mercedes Benz song is cool.

I really dig

Bobbi Gentry - Ode to Billie Joe

Chan Marshall, aka Cat Power, has a great voice. Not saying she has the best vocal performance because I don't think that is one of those things that I could never name just one, but her stuff is pretty badass. :D

for all you country fans..

I love her Gospel song in O Brother (Down to the River to Pray)


But her regular bluegrass stuff is great.
