I am over here just rocking out to this album!
I remember as a little girl just playing side one over and over!
Rocking out and playing the broom!

But now here I am sweeping, [ok, and dancing] with the broom!
But finally I am getting to know side two a little better!

I still love side one though!
I love how all the songs just run right into each other!

I just love this album!
Makes me happy!
Heaven must be like this!

I love "Present Company". It's a wonderful bridge between the Verve/Forecast era and Janis' reinvention of herself in the early 70s. And, the first public unveiling of the "grown up" Janis. Delightfully low-key music which demands close listening and hints at secrets to be found with time and patience.

I think this album rocks! I love its hippy-like cover and the way the songs transition into one another.

It's different, for sure. But in a cool, jammin' way.

The cover is amazing. What a superb photo of Janis :) I was going to listen to it again last night, but then I got well and truly "sidetracked" by another parcel :) containing yet more Janis :)
