Portishead
Roseland NYC Live (Double LP) [ Go Beat / 2 LP - released 13/May/2016 ] Performing with a 35-piece orchestra, Portishead runs through selections from its two albums, favoring its second slightly. On the surface, it doesn't seem like the orchestra would add much to the performances, especially since the arrangements... |

Portishead (LP) [ London / Umgd / 2 LP - released 30/Sep/1997 ] Portishead's debut album, Dummy, popularized trip-hop, making its slow, narcotic rhythms, hypnotic samples, and film noir production commonplace among sophisticated, self-consciously "mature" pop fans.

Portishead
Portishead [ Go! Beat / CD - released 9/Oct/1997 ] This was the band's self-titled follow-up album to their brilliant debut, "Dummy". It is similarly eerie, interwoven as it is with lingering, and on occasion, alarming melodies & grooves. Another fine exponent of the "Bristol" sound! |
