Before they became icons, Janis Joplin and Jorma Kaukonen were performing raw, intimate blues and folk in the early 1960s San Francisco scene.
The Legendary Typewriter Tape: 6/25/64 Jorma’s House captures that moment; an informal, in-room recording that feels as immediate as it is historic.
Originally recorded in 1964 and officially released decades later, this LP presents early performances of traditional blues alongside candid studio dialogue, offering a rare, unfiltered look at two artists at the very beginning of their journey.

This recording stands apart from traditional releases, capturing Janis Joplin before her rise to fame, in a stripped-back setting with Jorma Kaukonen. The inclusion of rare spoken moments and loose performances makes this a document of a moment, not just a record.

The Legendary Typewriter Tape! I'm so bummed that this is sold out. Im a fan of Janis and have been for years and when found out i was born on the day she turned 9 years old it made sense! Hopefully it will be back for purchase.
