Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Pass in Time: the Definitive Collection is bound to do well because, frankly, people like Beth Orton. It's as simple as that. While she hasn't exactly set the world on fire since first coming to our attention as one half of Spill alongside William Orbit, she's always boasted a most reliable voice that, while neither particularly unique nor entrancing, can sell a song most efficaciously.

Similarly, while it is highly unlikely that Beth is anybody's absolute favourite artist of all time, her appeal is exceptionally broad. When the Chemical Brothers need a surrogate female larynx for their populist electronica they invariably call on Beth; she's a stalwart of Radio 2, a less spiky and consequently more palatable Sinead O'Connor and during indie rock's 1996 heyday, NME's typically Britpop-hugging critics embraced Orton's career-encapsulating "She Cries Your Name" iron horse as their single of the week.

Pass in Time, meanwhile, throws out no less than 24 reasons why we like Beth Orton. Here are feather-light emotions, mellifluous, casually delivered vocal gymnastics, heartstring-stroking coffee-table melancholia, solo highlights and collaborations with the aforementioned Chemicals, William Orbit and Terry Callier. It's a solid, engaging anthology. It's unlikely to steal your heart and soul but you'll like it a heck of a lot. --Ian Fortnam

CD Description
'Pass In Time' is a collection of songs taken from Beth Orton's three previous albums. Most noted for her subtle vocalsreminiscent of 70's singer/songwriters such as Carole King and Carly Simon. Her music is a fusion of graceful acoustic folk, melancholoy country-blues, down-tempo trip hop and dubby electronica. Includes the singles 'She Cries Your Name', 'Someone's Daughter' and 'Touch Me With Your Love' , alongside B-sides, remixes, collaborations, and rarities.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not enough to make a 'definitive collection' worthwhile, 24 Sep 2003
By Dr. Emily S. Ryall "emryall" (Bristol) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Athough I like this album (because I like Beth Orton) I believe that it is mainly a marketing ploy by the record label. I mean how can you possibly release what is a glorified 'best of' album when you've only got three albums plus a couple of colaborations under your belt? I just feel it is stretching it a bit to put the majority of your tracks from your previous albums onto one cd. Fortunately, the 2nd cd helps to rectify the situation slightly by including some of Orton's more limited-released work. My advice is to only buy this is you haven't got any of her stuff already - even owning one of her albums doesn't really make it worthwhile to buy this - you'd be better off buying her previous albums instead.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Collection, 7 Oct 2003
By A Customer
This is a great collection for anyone who missed Beth Orton's earlier albums and unlike most best of album's it does contain a few tracks mostly on the second CD that you probably won't have got hold of before.
I give it 5 stars for the quality of the tracks on both CD's but it's not such a great purchase if you already own her three studio albums. But let's face it who buys best of albums (which are all marketing exercises if you ask me) expecting them to be filled with brand new material?

The rare stuff is good and worth having so you pays your money and takes your choice.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful album, 27 Nov 2003
By Caspar Aremi "aremi.me.uk" (London, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
In response to emryall above - three albums is the typical marker to release a "best of", it's pretty much a standard thing all across the industry. The fact she's also worked on half a dozen other albums too, of which some tracks are included, makes this a great purchase. Don't forget, too, that it includes a couple of tracks from her very first album, which was never released in the UK.

Beth sings with passion in every track. I remember the Trailer Park cd having the labels name across it - "heavenly". I think they should have this on ALL her releases!
