#Portishead #reaction #BethGibbons
This concert is one of the best live recordings of the 90s. Just incredible.
Definitely!
It’s on my top 10 of the 90’s without question.
The entire trip-hop genre is criminally overlooked, despite this, both Portishead's "Dummy" along with Massive Attacks "Mezzanine" album are on every list of top records of the 90's as well as many top 100 albums of all time. A few other notable groups to check out, Morcheeba in particular their album "Big Calm", you also have the Sneaker Pimps, best known for the hit "6 Underground", Hooverphonic is another great band, check out their track "Mad About You". Goldfrapp headlined by the amazing Alison Goldfrapp with songs like "Utopia"; which she also recorded the background vocals for. The artist Tricky's, "Maxinquaye" album is another staple of the genre, there's also the group Lamb and lastly, I'll mention Everything but the Girl who are tricky because their sound and style is far more upbeat than typical trip-hop and is more of a club, trip hop blend.
I love Bristol
Alison Goldfrapp is such a gifted vocalist who deserves everything 😭 I saw them live in 2003 or so, best performance I've seen to date. Made me cry
Listen to Alpha they did some music with massive attack at the beginning of their carriers specifically firefly remix!
You like all the bands I like 👍
@@witzendoz Awesome!!! Let me toss a few other personal favorites you might like, that are lesser well known. Beth Orton, is criminally under rated, her album Central Reservation is among one of the best and complete albums start to finish of the 90's, Beth has an amazing voice that stands out. Sweetest Decline, Pass in Time and Feel to Believe are 3 personal favorites amongst an incredible album. Speaking of next level female vocals, Elysian Fields, Queen of the Medow is another top tier complete album, Black Acres, Rope of Weeds, Dream Within a Dream and Barely Recognize You, were personal stand outs. Quickly a few other stand out groups and albums, Blonde Redhead, album Melody of Certain Damaged Lemons, Belle and Sebastain is a fun group with a wicked sense of humor, If You're Feeling Sinister and Tigermilk are excellent albums and lastly tossing out Sigur Ros, Agaetis Byrjun and their untitled album are something quite different and spectacular.
This is a singer and band at the height of their powers and it is a powerful, beautiful, and emotionally obliterating thing to behold. Best live album ever made. Period.
I once heard someone describe Portishead’s music as “hauntingly romantic.” I felt that was perfect. Never forgot that.
Portishead has never gotten old or overplayed for me.
Portishead forever!
Me and all my metalhead friends LOVE Portishead! Fantastic Artists! Gibbons is AWESOME.
Few songs I've ever heard have this level of masterful melancholy.
The whole concert is perfect. Beautiful music
What a song , what a concert , pure trip hop genius , love it !
Great band. Love a bit of trip-hop and Beth is an amazing singer, a real storyteller.
I still love this show and listen to it regularly.
It's so gorgeous! It's such a shame not more people know it.
For me Portishead goes hand in hand with Lamb, both have beautiful distinctive vocals and fall in the same mellow trip hop category.
The are well worth checking out.
I'd add the couple tracks from Zero 7 with Sia and Sophie Ellis Bextor.
This shit give the GOOSE BUMPS. I think I was like 15 when this album came out. MIND BLOWN. Dummy will forever be in my top 10 of all time ever!
one of the great mysteries of the '90s was how did these audiences get tickets to these shows it's like the MTV Unplugged specials I remember Beth saying in a interview she is technically not a good singer for that to happen she would have to give up smoking and take Lessons & anyone said she is don't know what their talking about LOL
This on top of basically chain smoking the entire set 😄
This was coming out of Bristol, England in the early to mid 90s; a small but incredibly good scene that produced Massive Attack, Portishead, Tricky, Morcheeba.
Truly great stuff.
Hey! It's my request! :) I love this song so, so much. It was actually really hard to pick between this song and Glory Box from the same show. Ultimately, I figured Glory Box is much more well-known, so I just kinda *had* to pick this song. This entire concert is amazing, seriously. As for the time period, I mean, Grunge is the sound of my generation, Gen-X. But after grunge petered out after corporate music interests tried to milk it for $$$, there was an awful lot of creativity that was unleashed among musicians and in popular music as a whole. The entire trip-hop genre was one such experimental offshoot of that era. Portishead, Tricky, DJ Shadow, & Massive Attack were the standard bearers of the style, and it was really some of the first attempts to meld the hip-hop vibe and electronic music, both of which were starting to come of age in the mid-late 90's. This entire show mixing orchestral music, electronic music, hip hop, and Beth Gibbons channeling early/mid-30s torch singers... Just unreal. Absolutely amazing, and I could listen to this stuff endlessly and not get bored.
I was shocked when you said you're 53. You look much younger! Thanks for vibing to Portishead with me ❤
One of my favourite videos is Beth doing "Tom the Model" on Later with Jools Holland. Vocally, I put Beth in a similar category to Nancy Griffith - "Late Night Grand Hotel" - and Suzanne Vega - "Luka".
It's music for late in the evening with a bottle of wine, earphones on and just let everything else melt away. And the more you listen the more you will hear.
When someone says Strength through Vulnerability in art... she is what I imagine. This DVD is amazing. Beth's performance this night/day was incredible. And then she apologizes at the end of the concert. Like, what. (i think i'm remembering that right)
That "constricted range" creates tension. Something that in the visual arts is necessary to keep a composition from falling flat.
Wow this is an old one but a classic. It’s so damn emotional!
Beth is something else 💖
Portishead was on MTV non-stop in the 90’s.
One of the best live records if you like her singing the band she keeps bees has a similar singing vibe but is equally amazing
One of the best songs I've ever heard.
Love Triphop.
Man, your facial reaction as Beth starts to sing, and then body language, expresses your subsequent words perfectly. As you say, the power of holding in check is so amazing; Aretha vs Mariah Carey, for example
The voice of pain the song framing depression though it has served as inspiration to many.
Great analysis and feedback. Subscribed!
The fact that you didn't hear the violins as loud as you wish has nothing to do with the year of the recording!!! It's a matter of EQ,,, this album has an almost perfect production. What is really strange is that being 53 years old, as you say, that you never heard this before!! It's simply a masterpiece.
The album Dummy actually had deliberate distortion and distressed intruments to create a unique sound and some of that is carried over to this concert.
Just stumbled across your video. I saw Portishead at Glastonbury in 1997 . The best band in the festival and the tent sides had to be rolled up to allow the crowd to see them. 👀 one of the most amazing things I've ever seen 😍 ❤️
You brought up a good point with this being good music to sleep to. The trip hip scene came about towards the end of the uk rave sceen and became popular as music to played when you got home from a rave. Portishead, massive attack, and tricky all came out of Bristol, uk. Enjoy!!
I own this dvd and I have to say it’s a “must own”
Roseland Ballroom (RIP) in New York City.
Portishead is one of my favourite Bands...Check out Glory Box from the same Concert or recording whatever...its amazing...
Considering some of Beth's comments in the past, there is something kinda funny about a vocal coach reaction. To paraphrase, at one point she said 'If anyone says I'm a technically good singer, they don't know anything about music. To be good I'd need to stop smoking and get voice lessons'. But I'm always happy to see Portishead reactions/analysis they're one of those bands that I feel sit just below the surface of popularity, where most people, in the UK at least, know the name and the Bristol scene at that time but not much more.
Look at Bjork's 'Post' album and Thievery Corporation's early albums from 'Mirror Conspiracy' to 'Culture of Fear'
I went to NYC for a holiday and bought the first Eels album Beautiful Freak 1991 before anyone back in the UK had heard of them, then two bands who's albums came out Portishead and Radiohead both blew me away with their albums Dummy 1994 and OK computer 1997. what a fantastic time for UK music pushing boundaries and one of the best usa alternative albums! I fell in love from then onwards and that rounded my 3 most fave albums of the era, becoming iconic albums!
The fact that you're jamming to this and brought up The Gathering shows you have excellent taste!
Beth is a songbird angel.
So amazing brilliant
Sadly, the cd is not the complet show for reasons... only de dvd
There's something inexplicably divine about Portishead - like a lot of waves in the universe of possibility hit all at once in a bunch of talented people who made something that will never fade and will always be beautiful. I grew up in England and was 30-something when this album was released. It was fashionable to play it at dinner parties with friends. It seems incredible to me now that, although I loved it, I didn't recognise at the time just how special it was. It was one of the best things made in the 1990s, without a doubt. Premier league music.
Perfect soundtrack for sultry love scenes in movies.
You shocked me into this comments section, saying you were 53....the same age. Cause i without a doubt slipped into a melancholic nostalgia remembering this album when it was released, the glorious year of Portishead AND Bjork touring with orchestra....and the decades slipping by every week. Damn, man.
9:58 after you made that statement I took a second and yes, savored the moment. 😂
Bristol sound was amazing.
Sublime
You should check out, "Half Day Closing" from this same album. It's not delicate like this, just powerful... 🤔✨❤️
If you want to see her open up and go with more bonus, check out Threads live. Amazing song with an incredible build. I had always wondered what she’s sound like when she let loose.
* volume, not bonus
There is a 2023 remaster of the album - enjoy. :)
Try putting Storm ambient sound in the back ground and play this over it. I saw this comment on the original post of this performance and it is amazing.
If you liked this check out an album recorded in a Takaka woodshed.. The Woolshed Sessions. Only Your Arms
The CD recording sounds great.
Yeah the TH-cam compression kills alot of this
Exactly, seems a bit odd complaining about the compressed sound quality of a You Tube clip. I'm lucky enough to own a pair of B&W 805 D3 and trust me, you can hear the orchestra and it's majestic.
Kudos to the Anneke reference. I fell in love with her voice in Nightime Birds an has been a long affair since then.
Beth is yet another rare jewel in a world of ordinary.
Who stops right at the crescendo 😂
I actually thought this was a big brain reaction. I'd like you to talk about what it takes to foster, manifest, and engender the emotions she does in this song. I think you personally do actually 'get it', so I'd really like to hear what you have to say about the process of singing like that, from the muse, to the fearlessness and beyond. A small ask I'm sure. If I filmed myself reacting to it it would just be me wiping my eyes and apologizing.
You should check out Jinjer - Pisces (live sesions)
What does "took me out of life" mean?
Buzz Lightyear popped in to say hi (2:40)
Stopped this at the worst possible second just as the orchestra was about to go full crescendo
portishead isnt grunge, its trip hop
please react to Over from the same concert her vocals are even better.
👍
Please, Poets of the Fall - Angel (live)! it will make you cry))
The actual record sounds better than this youtube clip. (If you're saying that you're wanting to hear the strings more.)
Tasteful.
React to the brand new single of florence and the machine "King" It's just amazing..🔥🔥💜💜
Sleep music??? This is love making music!
Delicate and pained.
Good lookin 53. Keep it up!
Prime
i remember this song was set to a montage of i think images of the war in serbia croatia etc etc,,, on tv in the uk,, it was a very hard watch,,,
bit like the cars with live aid but much much worse,,,
Please take some time from your life and listen to their album. It changed mine and I guess many other lives in the UK. Something happened at the right time and the right place with these guys and myself.
I only today just discovered this singer, and found out this was from the early 1990s. At first I was amazed, the unique combination of the instrumental tremolo with that vulnerable, trembling voice.
But looking through TH-cam vids over the decades since, I see she’s basically a one-trick pony. But what a good trick that is, nevertheless. 👍
A similar singer is Liz Frazer-Cocteau Twins ( she also sings Massive Attacks’ Teardrop) Both beautiful delicate ethereal enchantresses! 👌
I'm surprised you like this and don't know it... OMG I'm two years older than you and I've pushed "Dummy" on all my family and friends.. top 10 listened to CDs in my life
Ahead of their time. Real singers and players
🌀🌀🌀🙏🙏🙏 thank you for Portishead!
wait... what's up with the Barbra comment?
She looks a bit like young Barbara Streisand from that angle indeed. lol
For me, i need faster music for keeping the adhd at bay. This type of music just pulls at my heartstrings too much and sucks me in to a trance like state with heightened emotions.
Stupid comments about the violins without even waiting to listen to the end. You complain about not hearing the orchestra when it wasn't even playing yet. The recording is up to par if not even better than many current live recordings.
All that gear and diploma...get a compressor/limiter in the signal chain. Your voice jumps volumes all over the place. Just trying to help. Couldn't keep watching. I also own the dvd though. Cheers.
I'm sure this is a common comment, and I hate to step on that ground. Either way, if you're really 53 I need to know your secret. I'm 28 and look like the fuckin Crypt Keeper in comparison
Jesus mate the violins are fine? Maybe listen to the studio version instead, your getting distracted by something irrelevant,it's about portishead not the orchestra behind them
You don't know another singer alike because she's not singing, she's crying.
sorry but I've never watched a more disjointed review.
What a lame reaction, you stopped just at the crescendo and complaining about not hearing the violins? Seriously?
