About this album

Strange Weather is a striking late-career statement from Marianne Faithfull, balancing blues, pop and torch-song material with weathered emotional force. Issued in 1987, the album finds her voice turning age and experience into the point of the performance, bringing unusual gravity to songs by Tom Waits, Bob Dylan and Kurt Weill alongside the title track and a reworked return to As Tears Go By. Its cabaret, blues-rock and vocal styling underline Faithfull’s reinvention as a commanding interpretive singer, and the record is widely regarded as one of the key albums of her comeback era.
