R.I.P. MARIANNE FAITHFULL

31 January 2025

MARIANNE FAITHFULL has passed away yesterday at the age of 78 after a long illness. The wonderful, glamorous persona and singular voice fought breast cancer and Covid-19 the past few years. Her career started as rolling stone girl who was Mick Jagger‘s fiancée for several years.

She recorded/released countless albums. She was a compelling live artist (as I
witnessed a couple of times) and she played in several movies. An icon forever.
