This week's winner: Mike Edgerley of Tampa knew that legendary jazz saxophonist John Coltrane performed a rendition of My Favorite Things from the Rodgers & Hammerstein musical The Sound of Music.

This week's question: Janis Joplin died at 28 from a heroin overdose 31 years ago today. Joplin made a big splash at the 1967 Monterey International Pop Festival with her blues rock version of Ball & Chain. To enter your name in the random drawing for the Weekend T-shirt, tell me what legendary singer first scored a hit with the tune.
