Barb Jungr anyone?

Just came across this lady's cover album of Bob Dylan songs. I like her easy-listening take on a number of Dylan's soft ballads. She lilts somewhat in trying to tackle Tangled up in Blue though - you just can't beat the original art sometimes.

She's just released an album of Nina Simone covers also.

With a name like that, I thought she would hail from east of the Rhone but no... a northern English lass!

Looking forward, Bart.

Not bad at all,"I want you" is nice,itas a jeff buckey flavor to it(lilac wine).I like her modulation betwin high and low and a voice not to "clean".
If you are interested, Bryan Ferry as a new album (year old or so) in which he also revisite so of Dylan Standar.
Esther Philips is a fabulous jazz singer,she also interpret some dylan song.

Cheers Thomas. I actually have the Bryan Ferry album - Dylanesque. Some decent versions - If Not For You and Make You Feel My Love stand out.
By the way I have a number of Dylan originals also!! Can't beat Blood on the Tracks.

Haven't come across Esther Phillips yet - I'll do a bit of digging.
