Bob Dylan Live Performance of Just Like A Woman in Avignon, France

Venue: Palais des Sports Location: Morières-lès-Avignon, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France Date: July 25, 1981

In July 1981, during his European tour, Bob Dylan performed at the Palais des Sports in Morières-lès-Avignon, France, showcasing one of the most soulful renditions of "Just Like A Woman.'' This performance came shortly after the release of his album "Shot of Love" in 1981, which marked a significant moment in Dylan's career, as it blended his folk roots with more contemporary rock elements. Notably, the album features songs reflecting on love, faith, and personal struggle, which were hallmarks of Dylan's artistry. Interestingly, this live recording captures Dylan in a transitional phase, navigating the evolving rock landscape while still drawing heavily from his rich back catalog. Fans often consider this version a standout, resonating with the emotional weight Dylan is known for—not just in his lyrics, but in his stirring live performances.
