Marianne Faithfull: Blazing Away

This live disc was recorded at the Brooklyn St. Anne's Cathedral. With a song list that stretches back to her '60s singles, this is something of a career overview. But the wisdom and maturity she applies to the material -- both old and new -- make this a document that attests to Faithfull's continued vitality and brave artistic commitment.
-- John Floyd, All-Music Guide

On this live album, Garth Hudson can be heard in superb form alongside Dr. John. A concert video was also released from this event.
