Farewell Song is a 1982 collection of nine previously unreleased recordings of Janis Joplin with Big Brother and the Holding Company, the Kozmic Blues Band, and Full Tilt Boogie. Tracks include Cheap Thrills-era outtakes and live performances; "Misery 'N", "Farewell Song", and "Catch Me Daddy".
The recordings were enhanced through the use of devices such as the Lexicon 224 and the ADR Scamp Rack by producer Elliot Mazer, and the original bass by Peter Albin on "Farewell Song" was replaced with bass work by Mazer. Some members of Big Brother and the Holding Company were unhappy about some of the enhancements.
One Night Stand was recorded with the Paul Butterfield Blues Band and became a hit upon release. Tell Mama is the only Full Tilt Boogie Band track.
