Marianne Faithfull Redux By Amanda on January 23, 2009 6:25 PM | Permalink | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)
Got around to watching the 30 min DVD fill that comes with the 2 disc version of the new Marianne Faithfull and it's worth checking out. Marianne and Hal Wilner talk in depth about half a dozen songs. Includes the tidbit that it was Greil Marcus who suggested she do "Down From Dover." A lovely bit on "Sing Me Back Home", where she says she took specific inspiration from the Keef Toronto boot version and it's a sweet little tribute to their relationship.
I actually don't know if it's out in Oz yet. I got mine on teh innertubes a few weeks back and Bernard Zuel covered it in the Herald last weekend so I assumed it was, but can't find it listed anywhere local. It's on the Shock site but for whatever reason not out til Feb.
