Wicked
Single, 2026
Now re-mastered and released digitally for the first time, Recorded at RMS Studios and released independently, it was the first release of the duo Jungr and Parker, featuring their unique songwriting and sound. Barb said “Wicked was recorded in 1986. It was the first collection that the brilliant Michael Parker and I released all of our self written songs and all arranged by us. I made Blue devils available already which the launderette song is from which you can hear right now but Wicked is extraordinary. As I’ve been working on it to get it ready to release and I’m blown away by what we did all those years ago. 40, to be precise! I can’t wait for you all to hear it.
