This is a fitting tribute to an important figure in music and culture. Marianne Faithful was wonderful, and I really appreciate the selections you’ve included here. I hadn’t heard the slow world weary version of one of her biggest hits and found it hauntingly beautiful. I guess she really was the Debbie Harry of the 1960s, though I never realized that till you mentioned it here. Nice work collaborating on this piece, gentlemen!
Thank you for writing about Marianne Faithfull; I've been feeling very moved by her music after hearing about her passing.
At the risk of being gauche, I'll mention my own post, on the day of her death, in which I selected a few less well-known tracks to illustrate the range of her career. https://earnestnessisunderrated.substack.com/p/rip-marianne-faithfull
You're welcome Nick. Saw your piece too and enjoyed it. Had meant to contact you to link to it so thanks for sharing!
Thank you.
Nice post. I once got to spend three days performing and traveling with the remarkable Marianne. I jotted down some memories. https://tonefiend.com/uncategorized/three-days-with-marianne-faithfull/
Thanks for sharing! I'll go take a look
