Retry Correct Incorrect According to Far Out magazine, “Piece Of My Heart” writers Bert Burns and Jerry Ragavoy offered the song to Van Morrison but gave it to Arethra Franklin’s sister Erma in 1967. Yet while Franklin’s version was a top 10 R&B hit then, Janis Joplin’s rendition with Big Brother And The Holding Company would transform the song forever and turn her into a household name in 1969.
