"Nine Hundred Nights" is the story of the pivotal 60's psychedelic rock group Big Brother and the Holding Co. Although they will always be remembered as the band that launched the career of Janis Joplin, Big Brother also occupy a significant place in the history of San Francisco Psychedelia. Follow the band form the formation in 1965, through the arrival of Janis Joplin in mid 1966, their first two albums through Janis Joplin's departure in 1969. This document, devoted to the two-plus years ('66-'68) that Janis Joplin spent as a member of San Francisco's Big Brother and the Holding Company, offers ample material to support the view that Joplin, who died in 1970 at age 27, was a great singer and an enduring inspiration. On the other hand, it probably won't dissuade those who agree with Pete Townshend of the Who (one of the stars of the '67 Monterey Pop Festival, along with Joplin and Jimi Hendrix), who has called her "just an ugly, hard-drinking, screaming woman" with a band that was "just about the worst f***ing band I'd heard." In addition to a 60-minute documentary that features performance clips, contemporary interviews with the Holding Company and various others, in-studio footage and so on, the DVD offers four complete, decent-sounding filmed performances (including "Ball and Chain" from Monterey, as well as "Piece of My Heart") and one audio-only tune. It's not an especially pretty story - the band was, in fact, rather lame, and Joplin's departure, while perhaps inevitable, wasn't real popular - but it deserves to be told, and Nine Hundred Nights does a fine job of it.
