"Drawing on influences from a wide range of musical traditions, Jungr sets her stunning voice at the emotional centre of powerful gospel and blues lyrics. Music lovers will appreciate material by such great writers as Jimmy Reed, Carole King and Randy Newman as well as a new song by Eric Bibb (Heading Home). The album also features some exciting new self-penned material including the positive message of "Beautiful Life." Following her acclaimed, song-styled workings of Dylan, Jacques Brel and Elvis Presley this new album is a celebration of material Barb has held in her heart since she first fell in love with music. This is perhaps Barb Jungr’s strongest and most accessible outing to date with a strong message, wonderful instrumentation and plenty of groove." -Linn Records TRACKS: 1 Who Do You Love? 2:57 2 Trouble in mind 4:32 3 Beautiful Life 4:17 4 Drink Me Up 3:57 5 Walking in Memphis 3:46 6 Walking in the Sun 4:13 7 Rainy Day 5:54 8 Take Out Some Insurance 2:59 9 Run on for a Long Time / God’s Song 4:18 10 Blind Willie McTell 4:12 11 Many Rivers to Cross 5:34 12 Heading Home 4:02 13 Way Over Yonder 4:12 LINE-UP: Barb Jungr - Vocals Jenny Carr - Piano, Musical Director Jessica Lauren - Harmonicas, Organ and Bass Piano Steve Watts - Bass Roy Dodds - Drums and Percussion Gabriella Swallow - Cello Eric Bibb - Guitars Barb Jungr, Jenny Carr and Jessica Lauren - Backing Vocals Recorded at The Way Studios, Hackney on 1st to 3rd May, 2006 Produced by Calum Malcolm and Barb Jungr Mixed by Calum Malcolm in Carlekemp Lodge Project Management - Caroline Dooley |
