Released in March 1967, Loveinamist was a hybrid comprised of earlier hit singles ‘Yesterday’ and ‘This Little Bird’ alongside tracks released on her US only album Faithfull Forever 7 months earlier and new recordings in the folk-pop style that defined her signature sound. The album features a clutch of impressive interpretations from the songwriters that suited her best, including a string laden ‘Counting’ by Bob Lind, a stoic ‘Reason To Believe’ by Tim Hardin, gorgeous folk-pop ballad ‘With You In Mind’ by Jackie DeShannon, and the baroque psychedelia of Donovan’s ‘In The Night Time’. There was something in Donovan’s words music and ideas that seemed to sit particularly well with Marianne’s interpretive gifts and another of his compositions ‘Young Girl Blues’ is given a powerful treatment distinctly at odds with the rest of the album’s folky romanticism. Loveinamist also reflects Marianne’s penchant for French music with beautiful versions of ‘Ne Me Quitte Pas’ from the 1964 musical Les Parapluies De Cherbourg and ‘Coquillages’, Marianne’s own French translation of ‘Cockleshells’, which originally appeared on North Country Maid.
