Janis Joplin is remembered as the free-loving spirit of the 60s... but in reality, she was a freeloading, needy addict that was always 'too good' for the talented people that surrounded her. If she was so hip and in touch with her generation, why couldn't she write her own lyrics?

Actually, that may have been his inspiration. Did your professor tell you that?

He was good with an ax, terrible with an axe and horrendous with his ex. Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead, much like the self-serving generation he helped shape, always put himself first.
