Marianne Faithfull is the debut studio album by English singer
Marianne Faithfull. It was released simultaneously with her album Come My Way on 15 April 1965 by
Decca Records. The double release was a result of different creative directions. While the record label pressed Faithfull to record a pop album, she wanted to record an album of
folk songs. Even after the label suggested an album containing both genres, Faithfull decided to make two separate albums instead; Marianne Faithfull as the pop album and Come My Way as the folk album.[2] In the United States, it was released by
London Records with a slightly different track list and inclusion of the song "This Little Bird".
