Production details
When 16 year old Janis Ian recorded the controversial hit
Society's Child (Baby I've Been Thinking) in 1967, few expected the subsequent eight year lull before the release of the platinum album
Between the Lines. It featured the Grammy Award-winning single at
At Seventeen plus the famed
Watercolours and earned over 5 million dollars. Janis retired. Since that time, a chequered career has seen her writing for artists such as Roberta Flack and Joan Baez and developing a following amongst folk enthusiasts for her hard-hitting and forthright treatment of subjects such as wife-battering, eroticism and sixties nostalgia.
