Faithfull, Marianne - Strange Weather

RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON ISLAND 1987.

Island ILPS 9874 made in EEC in gatefold cover with lyric inner sleeve.

Vinyl NM. Cover EX.

Faithfull's 1987 release recast her as a nicotine-stained chanteuse, approaching such standards as "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" and "Penthouse Serenade" with a ravaged, world-weary demeanor that recalls the latter-day recordings of Billie Holiday. She also tackles some blues and jazz material and turns "As Tears Go By" into the gut-wrenching torch ballad neither the Stones nor Faithfull could ever have done in the '60s. A dark, challenging masterpiece.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marianne_Faithfull
