Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Having collaborated with such dance acts as Red Snapper and the Chemical Brothers, singer-songwriter Beth Orton is sometimes regarded as a young folky hitching a ride on the electronica bandwagon. On Trailer Park, however, she harks back to a lost Seventies tradition whose exponents included Traffic, Tim Buckley and especially John Martyn, all of whom worked in a hazy interface between jazz, blues and folk. Fleshed out with multiple layers of vibes, strings and keyboards, Trailer Park is at once a soul-searching and sensual album, with Orton's flat-edged and indistinct lyrics often seeming to melt in her own mouth. Only "Sweetest Decline", featuring Dr John on keyboards seems slightly twee. Otherwise on the likes of "Couldn't Cause Me Harm" and "Feel To Believe", the pleasures and pains of love are conveyed so tangibly it almost hurts. --David Stubbs

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply beautiful, 27 Sep 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Trailer Park (Audio CD)
I bought this album after hearing the mysterious, melodic and fantasticly written 'She cries your name'. I instantly fell in love with it. Beths voice is one of the best female voices I have heard, this combined with the intricate guitar is a recipe for success. I bought the album over a year ago and still love listening to it. Buy, play, play and play over and over again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't get it out of my head!, 4 Feb 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Trailer Park (Audio CD)
I bought this album two years ago and at first just enjoyed it. However two years later I not only enjoy it but realise just how special it is. It gets inside you and makes you keep going back for more. The lyrics are fantastic. It sweeps you along through so many emotions then sends you out into a "Galaxy of Emptiness" in the last track. I love Beths other albums but this one still has my vote.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than Dido., 1 Jul 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Trailer Park (Audio CD)
The words, 'contemporary folk' used to strike fear into the hearts of me and my fellow school pupils. Then I bought this album on a school trip to Strathconnon.... The whole thing is infused with the spirit of America's Midwest, rather than the rather less musically renowned Norfolk. By far the best tracks on this album are, She Cries Your Name, Live as You Dream, How Far and Someone's Daughter. She Cries Your Name is almost harrowing, using vocal pyrotechnics to great advantage, and the other 3 are accomplishes, summery indie-folk tunes, ideal for those hot days in the car driving to festivals and waiting for it to rain. How Far has more than a tinge of country, and Sugar Boy, Don't Need A Reason, Whenever and Tangent uphold the very hight standard, but aren't as instantly memorable and likeable. And yes, it is better than Dido, but buy that too.
