Marianne Faithfull: A Life on Record

A tribute to the life and work of one of the great musical icons of the twentieth century, reflected through the lenses of the worldâ‚¬s greatest photographers. Published to coincide with the fiftieth anniversary of the release in 1964 of her groundbreaking debut single "As Tears Go By," this is the definitive book on Faithfull, one of the most beloved singers of the twentieth century. As a folk singer in London, Marianne Faithfull was discovered in a coffeehouse in 1964 by the manager of the Rolling Stones. Over the five decades since, her work as a musician, her performances as an actress on stage and screen, and her presence as an icon of style have made Faithfull an undisputed icon of pop culture. Edited by the artist herself, with accompanying handwritten captions, this book represents a personal collection of images that tell the stories of her lifeâ‚¬"from her explosive success in London in the 1960s and her infamous relationships with Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones, to her rise as an actress and her collaborations with artists as diverse as David Bowie and Nick Cave. Including never-before-seen snapshots from Faithfullâ‚¬s collection, specially commissioned photographs of her home in Paris, and iconic images by many of the worldâ‚¬s best-known photographersâ‚¬"Steven Meisel, David Bailey, and Anton Corbijn, among many othersâ‚¬"this is a revealing celebration of an extraordinary life in popular culture.
