‘Come and Stay With Me’ is a new Marianne Faithfull compilation documenting the singles from 1964-1969.
One of Faithfull’s credits was with Mick Jagger and Keith Richards on the song ‘Sister Morphine’. Faithfull released the original version as the b-side to her 1969 single ‘Something Better’. The Rolling Stones version came two years later on the 1971 ‘Sticky Fingers’ album.
Come And Stay With Me restores the focus upon the magnificent folk (a remarkable rendition of the traditional “Greensleeves,” produced by Oldham) and popular music (including versions of Jackie DeShannon’s “Come And Stay With Me,” Donovan’s ‘The Most Of What Is Least” and John D. Loudermilk’s “This Little Bird”) that Marianne Faithfull created at Decca as she stumbled towards writing her own material and moving towards a redemptive career path. The package also features extensive biographical notes by celebrated music journalist Kris Needs, which are informed by his longstanding close friendship with the singer, and were forged using numerous interviews during the past four decades.
ABKCO Records will release the collection on vinyl in 2019.
