On Marianne Faithfull, David Lynch, other losses and a few gains of early 2025
Marianne's Ophelia in the Tony Richardson 1969 film of Hamlet is pretty awesome too
Thanks for writing about Marianne, Carl. I've been listening to her off and on all day. For whatever reason, I'd never heard "Born to Live" before--perfect time to discover it, no? She's her own kind of great, goes very deep.
I loved the Fear segment on the SNL special.
I listened to Marianne's great EASY COME, EASY GO as part of the grieving process.
Not sure if everyone will be able to access this, but someone posted one of the Faithfull 1980 SNL performances to fakesbook: https://www.facebook.com/NiteLifeNiteDeath/videos/2336149386783525
It's not bad at all, though she def looks stoned.
