Reaction of Janis Joplin on Jimi Hendrix' death?

Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin were friends, and they died within 16 days. But is there any known reaction of Joplin on Hendrix' death? I don't find anything on the web, but I still hope that something may have been recorded. --KnightMove (talk) 07:37, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Presumably she was saddened by his death. What else might you expect as an answer? Shantavira|^{feed me} 08:40, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I imagine he's expecting some referenced quotes from her on the matter, which seems like a reasonable question to me. --Viennese Waltz 08:51, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed... or, as number-two choice, also third-person accounts reporting on her reaction. --KnightMove (talk) 09:12, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A fairly thorough Google search found nothing useful. As she died shortly after Hendrix, it seems likely that nobody knows. Alansplodge (talk) 13:51, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
