Cool - I'd heard the Spooky Tooth cover of Society's Child but had no idea about the original... the original is much better, a very cool song when Janis does it.
Cheers.

She's a great singer/songwriter ... and a very wise woman:
"The Internet, and downloading, are here to stay... Anyone who thinks otherwise should prepare themselves to end up on the slagheap of history." (Janis Ian during a live European radio interview, 9-1-98)
