Other contributing arrangers include Grammy nominee, Fred Sturm and world renown cellist, Matt Turner. Janet Planet - Just Like A Woman - The Music Of Bob Dylan - vol. 2 is a collection of 12 Bob Dylan songs from the 1960\'s. \"After we recorded \"Janet Planet Sings The Bob Dylan Songbook Vol. 1\" and put it on the internet, the saga began. A big band director in Norway heard the CD online and requested arrangements of all the material for his 17 piece \r\nbig band and here we are\". Just about everyone that’s ever heard Janet Planet concludes she’s a remarkably gifted singer. Janet has enjoyed a solid and respectable career over the past 25 years but one that has (by standard measure) flown largely under the radar screen. Her 2016 release Janet Planet - Just Like A Woman - \r\nThe Music Of Bob Dylan vol. 2 has her soaring above the radar and targeting a wide range of listeners. The arrangements are sensitive to the Dylan\'s poetry while altering and modernizing the songs a little without distorting them and by utilizing tempo and mood variations, the result is fresh and engaging. Some will listen to this without being familiar with the music of Bob Dylan. They will be pleasantly surprised. Jazz fans will \r\ncertainly be knocked out by the performances and enjoy the break from the well-worn (out) standards. Dylan fans will listen with open ears and garner even more respect for him as they realize how well the material stands up to alternative approaches. Additionally, the arrangements have been finessed to be \"accessible\" for the talented youth on a university level or for professional and semi-professional jazz ensembles. Janet Planet has made a significant contribution to the jazz lexicon and she does so with exceptional artistic vision, confident leadership, exquisite taste, and powerful vocal skills. Just Like A Woman.\r\nMusic Release: December 15th, 2015 Album Title Janet Planet—Just Like a Woman—The Music of Bob Dylan vol. 2.
