Just Like a Natural Woman

"Just Like a Woman" was released on Bob Dylan's 1966 double album Blonde on Blonde. We'll get to the Dylan song, but here are a few others first.

SL, how can you leave out the Flying Burrito Brothers "Do Right Woman"?

[Steve L.]

It was a tough decision, Jeff. But there isn't a live version, and I'd already included the Aretha Franklin original.

What's the rule here? "Woman" in a positive light? OK then, setting aside Steely Dan and G'&f'nR and the like, the Red State Vault yields the following good "Woman" songs:

"Woman" by both John Lennon and Wolfmother
"Do Right By Your Woman" by Bad Company
"Kind Woman" by Buffalo Springfield
"Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress" by the Hollies
"Sossity - You're a Woman" by Jethro Tull
"Such a Woman" by Neil Young
"Woman from Tokyo" by Deep Purple
"Woman of Custom" by Rick Wright
"Sweet Talkin' Woman" by ELO
"Good Hearted Woman" by Willie Nelson and Waylon Jennings
"Hard Headed Woman" by Cat Stevens
"Rock and Roll Woman" by Buffalo Springfield
