MARIANNE FAITHFULL - GIVE MY LOVE TO LONDON
Legendary
British singer Marianne Faithfull will celebrate her storied career's 50th
anniversary later this fall with the release of Give My Love to London. Produced
by Rob Ellis and Dimitri Tikovoi and mixed by Flood, it features an impressive
roll call of studio collaborators including Adrian Utley (Portishead), Brian
Eno, Ed Harcourt, Warren Ellis and Jim Sclavunos (The Bad Seeds). Songwriting
contributors and co-conspirators - with Faithfull penning the majority of the
lyrics - include Nick Cave, Roger Waters, Steve Earle, Tom McRae and Anna
Calvi. While
featuring a stellar supporting cast, it is Marianne Faithfulls voice which
proves the main attraction. These are songs sung from the heart and soul and
from the perspective of someone who has seen and done it all. Over a fifty year
career, she has proved utterly fearless in her music and everything else
besides. Five decades on, Marianne Faithfull remains a unique and compelling
musical figure: adventurous in her life, adventurous in her art. ~ Amazon
JIMMY CHAMBERS - YOU CAN'T FIGHT IT
"You
Can't Fight It" was written for John Carpenter's seminal "Assault On
Precinct 13", but only made it onto the Italian release of the film,
"Distretto 13", and was previously available only as a very limited
7" promo!
Trinidadian
Jimmy Chambers rose to fame in the early 90s in Londonbeat, achieving number 1
success in the U.S. Billboard 100 and Hot Dance Club back in 1991 with
"I've Thinking About You". 15 years prior however he was commissioned
to perform "You Can't Fight It", masterminded by British 60's legend
Kenny Lynch. FBNM
favourite Riccio has also provided us with a superbly authentic re-edit, only
adding a little quantisation, fattening, stretch and sparkle to accompany the
original faithfully and help translate this lost gem onto today's dance floors! This
officially licensed premium 10" reissue features the original version
carefully restored and remastered by Andreas "Lupo" Lubich (CALYX
Berlin), in a vinyl only package featuring promotional art from the film, a
digital download code and lyrics insert!
