The woman had soul enough for 10 people. That’s why she still sounded great.
First time see her – Love Her!

I love hearing this song, but I can’t bear to watch the video. ?95 lbs? But frail, sick, and dying, SHE SOUNDS BETTER than most of the “healthy” singers today. What’s wrong with that picture?
this one of favorite songs by her
Just can’t keep a great vocal artist down! Wow….
OHHHHH BIG MAMA!
Now you are some blues yes you are!! you inspired my all time favorite artist miss janis joplin and it just gives me chills how she took your style and created it into her own, I LOVE YOU BOTH and without janis i would of never found you:)… may you rest in peace and may I say that I’M GONNA BE PURCHASING A LOT OF BIG MAMA THORTON ALBUMS
On her last legs, suffering from heart problems, and she still sounds better than Janis Joplin, who was also very good.
