Title: A Small, Incomplete Look at Faithfull's Work
Review: This greatest hits collection would be a waste of cash for anyone looking to get a decent Marianne album. Everything here is fantastic however, but that's half the problem. There are five tracks on here from Broken English, and rightfully so, but we only get six other tracks scattered from her career, one of which is a cover of Ghost Dance, which is weak and has no right to be put here over anything that was cut from Dangerous Acquantances or Strange Weather. Trouble in Mind is a classic Marianne tune, and She is super slick. The 60s version of As Tears Go By is sweet but feels way too out of place here after hearing the post 70s work. If you truly want a greatest hits collection, get the brilliant Island Anthology. This album feels like Broken English with some bonus tracks.
