Marianne from URBANASPIRINES | Early, Live and Classic! A trio of Delights

Marianne Faithfull: 29 December 1946 - 30 January 2025

A KOSTAS SPECIAL


Nice tribute posted from Kostas as you might expect from him over at  Urbanaspirines . . . . . looking at three albums in particular (having covered others before - see links) 



"Marianne Evelyn Gabriel Faithfull (29 December 1946 – 30 January 2025) was an English singer and actress. She achieved popularity in the 1960s with the release of her UK top 5 single "As Tears Go By"

In her teens, Faithfull took up singing, appearing at folk clubs, and was introduced to the rarefied atmosphere of the music community in London. 

Born in Hampstead, London, Faithfull began her career in 1964 after attending a party for the Rolling Stones, where she was discovered by Andrew Loog Oldham. Her debut studio album Marianne Faithfull (1965, released simultaneously with her studio album Come My Way) was a huge success followed by a number of albums on Decca Records. From 1966 to 1970, she had a highly publicised romantic relationship with Mick Jagger.” read on follow the links
