Rufus might be staging operas and playing Carnegie Hall, but our
favorite Wainwright sibling has always been Martha.
We adore her even more with the release of Sans
Fusils, ni souliers, à Paris, a live interpretation of
Edith Piafs lesser-known songs. The tunes are both romantic and tortured
(just like Piaf) with Marthas folksy voice wobbling in all the right
places.
Is it unfair to play favourites in families? Je ne regrette rien.
