Just Like a Woman (Hymn to Nina)

Just Like A Woman is Barb Jungr's hymn to the late, great Nina Simone.

This beautiful, haunting album combines Barb's compelling arrangements and resolute delivery to bring a fresh perspective on these songs. Named 'Jazz Album of the Week' by The Independent, Barb Jungr proves she is a "peerless interpreter" as she makes these songs her own, drawing subtle qualities from the lyrics with a moving lightness of touch to make their message utterly contemporary.

Perhaps most famous for her re-workings of Bob Dylan songs Barb has included 'Ballad Of Hollis Brown', 'The Times They Are A Changin'' and a soul-meets-reggae influenced 'Just Like A Woman'. Barb has surrounded herself with some of the UK's finest musicians including Danny Thompson on bass and Mark Lockheart on saxophone and clarinets.
