Album Notes & Community Reviews

Marianne Faithfull's 'Dangerous Acquaintances' followed the reinvention of 'Broken English' with a more polished but still bruised new wave and pop-rock setting. The album keeps her weathered vocal presence at the center of songs about romantic damage, distance, and survival.
