Originally by Aretha Franklins sister Erma. This cover by Big Brother and the Holding Company (featuring Janis Joplin) the raspy vocals get a piece of my heart every time.

"Kick Out The Jams, you M... brother and sisters" doesn't really cut it but otherwise an energetic cover. Not keen on the Doors cover, though. He's no Jim Morrison, is he.
