10 Vashti Bunyan on 'Faithfull: An Autobiography'

The shy but free spirit who never played by anyone else’s rules, Vashti Bunyan brings her own unique take and experiences to this fascinating discussion about the book Marianne by Marianne Faithfull with David Dalton. Admitting that she was very nervous to revisit an era she had long tried to leave behind her, and a person she didn’t like being compared to, she quickly reveals that reading the book was a revelation. Along the way we hear about her dad wishing she’d been a boy, what she’d misunderstood about Marianne Faithfull and why people have the sixties all wrong. A brilliantly insightful conversation with a true British musical legend (and some strong language, be warned!).
