Marianne Faithfull - BBC 4 Sessions

About This Movie

So, this one is a recording of Marianne Faithfull at LSO St Luke's from 2009. You get to see her perform tracks from 'Easy Come Easy Go' along with some older classics. The atmosphere is pretty intimate, the kind of vibe that makes you feel like you’re in the room with her. There's something raw about her performance, an honesty that comes through. The pacing flows nicely, moving from the younger hits to newer material that reflects her evolution as an artist. The arrangement of 'As Tears Go By' is particularly striking, taking you back to the 60s while still feeling fresh. It’s a neat snapshot of a career that's weathered so much, from the highs to the lows, all captured in one session.
