    Dummy is one of the best albums of the 90's, if not ever.

    One of the coolest performances. She just oozes cool. This type of sound encapsulates my early adulthood.

    "Glory Box" sounds familiar because it's in everywhere......Bertolucci's Stealing Beauty, episodes in CSI, Numb3rs and The Handmaid's Tale, commericials of Heineken, Levi's 501 and Guerlain perfume, to name a few. The iconic trippy vibes makes it a perfect sonic background for mystery and sensual scenes, and for products which want to project a classy image.

    I LOVE the way she finishes with the line 'Give me a reason to be '. Chopping two words from the line completely changes the impetus and meaning. Subtle but genius - which probably sums up Beth Gibbons and Portishead. More please! 🤞 Check out The Rip by them, another beautiful piece

    Beth is still doing the business. She released a brand new solo album in May called "Lives Outgrown". Her views on life approaching 60 and directly influenced by the deaths of family and friends over the preceding several years. Nominated for the 2024 Mercury Prize.

    The whole of the first two Portishead albums - 'Dummy' and 'Portishead' are perfection. The third one probably is as well but I've only heard a couple of tracks so I couldn't say. But 1 and 2 are just brillant. This NY performance had a few tracks off the 2nd album as well.

    OMG I know what you mean about the cigarette. I was a smoker for 40 years, and I quit 10 years ago now. My cravings are long gone, but occasionally in a film or other pop culture reference, someone is smoking a cigarette, and I have a momentary "Just one puff please!" flash. Fortunately I can talk myself out of it now. 🙂
