    RIP Marianne Faithfull

    Not mainstream and not everyone's cup of tea, but I thought she was great.



    The whole album is fire but this song is my favorite, and the bass solo starting around 3:55 is face melting.

    RIP indeed
    From her earlier discography

    As a boy just entering puberty I so had the hots for her
    While the Stones no doubt got her career started, it also led to her demise through heroin and coke.

    To me, when I picture walking down rub-a-dub square and seeing a girl with rings on her fingers, bells on her shoes and Scarlett begonias tucked into her hair, I picture Marianne Faithful

    Broken English is great.

    But man, nothing gets me like Blazing Away.
