There is so much I did not know. Thank you for posting this honest and warm obituary.

Great tribute Arthur!

I love how we have 60s Marianne and then this rich later career where she revisits all these songs with her amazing deeper voice and wisdom. She was the coolest and had lived such a life. She was also good at pointing out the sexism and cost to people of the 1960s, where Rolling Stones could be lauded as rock and roll legends and fuck over everyone around them. She and Anita Pallenberg were treated so badly and were both such clever articulate women.

A heartfelt obituary Arthur , I haven't read the others and I don't want to now. You've said it all. Thank you.

I thought the same as I was reading it.

The first and last heartfelt words necessary for honoring an epic life. Enough to fill my head and heart for the next days as her spirit soars freely—because we know she will do her version of it, her way, anyway!
