Marianne Faithfull Self Titled Limited 180gram Vinyl LP

Overview:

Marianne's eponymous pop LP receives its first ever vinyl repress on a 180g re-issue that has been remastered from the original tapes by the Grammy nominated Andrew Batt who also wrote detailed sleevenotes which Marianne contributed to before her passing in January 2025. The album was produced by Mike Leander, one of the key musical forces behind the British 60s pop scene, and features a mix of popular cover versions, folk revival standards, French pop and songs written specifically for Marianne including two of her biggest hits on both sides of the Atlantic; namely her Jagger / Richards penned debut single 'As Tears Go By', and 'Come And Stay With Me' by Jackie DeShannon. Marianne contributes 'Time Takes Time' - her first published composition, and her guitarist Jon Mark (and key collaborator of the 60s after Mike Leander), wrote one of the albums highlights 'Paris Bells'.

Although pop in sound, several of the songs were selected by Marianne from her collection of folk records including 'What Have They Done To The Rain?' and 'Plaisir d'amour'. The album also reflects Marianne's penchant for French music which can be heard on 'He'll Come Back To Me' originally recorded by the folk singer Hugues Aufray and 'They Never Will Leave You' by Jean-Jacques Debout. The rest of the LP features Marianne's versions of popular hits like 'Can't You Hear My Heartbeat' by Herman's Hermits, 'Downtown' by Petula Clark and a charming cover of the Beatles' 'I'm A Loser'.
