Marianne Faithfull "Faithless" CD (1991)

Details: Marianne Faithfull "Faithless" CD released on Sony as part of the Immediate (label) Story series. Insert looks great, CD shows light wear but has been playtested/no issues. Includes the Jackie DeShannon penned track, "Vanilla O'Lay," as well as Chuck Berry's "Sweet Little Sixteen."

Description: "Marianne Faithfull's first new album in a decade revealed the weathered voice she later would put to good, if harrowing, use in a series of albums for Island Records starting with Broken English in 1979. Here, that voice was smoothed out and used for pop and country material including such songs as "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight," "I'm Not Lisa," and "It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels." Faithfull had loosened up considerably since the chaste schoolgirl days of "As Tears Go By," and Faithless
suggested that her hard life could be analogous to that of a country music star. Faithfull didn't have the accent to match that assertion, but she did have the attitude. (Faithless was a slightly altered version of the January 1977 album Dreaming My Dreams. It was reissued on CD in 1991 with four bonus tracks and as No Regrets in 2008.)"--AllMusic
