OLD GIRLS AND BOYS 16|03|01 Blur are the latest in a stellar line-up approached to work with Marianne Faithful on her new album, nme.com can reveal. A source close to the project told nme.com this morning (March 15) that Blur have been in contact with the '60s star in recent months, with a view to writing alongside her on the new record. It is unclear how much the band have contributed so far, but a spokesperson for Blur told nme.com that "discussions" had definitely taken place between the two. As previously revealed on nme.com, ex-Smashing Pumpkins vocalist Billy Corgan and Eurthymics guitarist Dave Stewart are also rumoured to be involved. Beck has already committed to the project, and is planning to spend time in a US studio with Faithfull to work on a number of songs. Faithfull has collaborated with other groups in the recent past including Metallica, providing vocals on the 1997 single 'The Memory Remains'
