Album review: Marianne Faithfull | Easy Come Easy Go
MARIANNE FAITHFULL Easy Come Easy Go Dramatico DRAMCD0049, £12.72
Hal Willner produced Marianne's dark cabaret covers record Strange Weather 22 years ago, and this chunky collection might well top that.
Again putting her swarthy touch to the songs of others, she turns Dolly Parton's 'Down From Dover' into Home Counties Motown, and poignantly duets with Keith Richards on Merle Haggard's 'Sing Me Back Home'.
And just when you thought hearing Antony 'Johnsons' Hegarty collaborating with anyone else would be too soon, their sublime union on Smokey Robinson's 'Ooh Baby Baby' cajoles a winning vocal from the big man.
