Marianne Faithfull - Marianne Faithfull: The Montreux Years (2021) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

Last week, the 55th Montreux Jazz Festival wrapped up in Switzerland. Started in 1967 by Claude Nobs, Geo Voumard and Rene Langel, the yearly festival was at first true to its name and focused exclusively on jazz performers. However, over the years, it has grown to encompass nearly all types of music and has seen a wide range of performers including Etta James, Bob Dylan, Elton John, Lauren Hill, Aretha Franklin, David Bowie, James Brown, Kendrick Lamar, Leonard Cohen, Marvin Gaye, Miles Davis, Nina Simone, and many more. It has also proven to be a popular recording spot with nearly 100 albums documenting the numerous concerts. Adding to that album legacy, earlier this year BMG kicked off The Montreux Years series, featuring volumes devoted to an artists’ time at Montreux. The first two featured Nina Simone and Etta James. Now, the next two volumes have been announced and are devoted to Marianne Faithfull and Muddy Waters. The Faithfull entry spans concerts from 1995 to 2009 while the Waters album chronicles shows from 1972 to 1977. Both will be available in CD and 2-LP editions as well as digitally. They are each due on September 17.
