  1. 8.0 |   musicOMH

    Whether she's bringing other artists' work under her wing or confronting it head-on, she's still quite something.

  2. 8.0 |   Rolling Stone

    Marianne Faithfull confirms her status as matriarch on this brilliantly programmed covers set.

  3. 8.0 |   Scotland on Sunday

    Hal Willner produced Marianne's dark cabaret covers record Strange Weather 22 years ago, and this chunky collection might well top that.

  4. 8.0 |   The Independent

    Another brave assault on musical diversity from Faithfull, in typically intriguing musical livery.

  5. 8.0 |   The Quietus

    It could be argued that there are too many songs here, and the project could have appeared as one disc rather than two, but I'd contest that, for each track holds up to scrutiny.

  7. 8.0 |   Uncut

    Marianne is no Emmylou... But it is haggard, almost derelict, and defiantly beautiful.

  8. 6.0 |   The Sunday Times

    Faithfull’s voice is now so far gone that when she duets with Keith Richards, it’s Richards who provides the sweetness.

  9. 6.0 |   The Irish Times

    By this stage, Marianne Faithfull has been around so many blocks she knows the geography inside out.

  10. 6.0 |   Spin

    When she interprets material that matches the drug-ravaged wreckage of her vocal chords, she kills.

  11. 6.0 |   The Guardian

    If you can judge a legend's reputation by the company she keeps, then 62-year-old Marianne Faithfull is in fine fettle.

  12. 6.0 |   Observer Music Monthly

    A sprawling double album with a fine single album inside? You got it.

  13. 6.0 |   Evening Standard

    It has some marvellous moments, but is a musical downer, probably best listened to under the influence.

  14. 6.0 |   Independent on Sunday

    Much of it is marvellous, but it doesn't justify its two discs.
