Place Your Beth
It’s fair to say I do not have Beth Orton’s undivided attention. I’m asking the questions, she’s in her London kitchen, making soda bread.

She pauses to check her oven. Watch out Mitt. Hell hath no fury like a new mother scorned.

I have to confess that I was not hugely excited by the prospect of going to this gig. Although never exactly averse to Beth Orton (I loved her Chemical Brothers collaboration, ‘Where Do I Begin’) I generally find it hard to enthuse about acoustic-wielding singer-songwriters, particularly in a live setting.

The Goddess of dinner party music is back, and while the phrase “and better than ever” would fit quite nicely here, it’s sadly inappropriate. The lead track from Comfort From Strangers displays Beth’s gloriously imperfect voice and an ebbing and flowing string section. But her knack for teasing out that killer hook – as found on past hits like ‘Concrete Sky’ – has all but disappeared.

Let's face it: Beth Orton has already proved her genius with her sublime debut, Trailer Park. Not only was it a remarkable record for a debutante; it was, and is, one of the standouts of the last three years. And now she's gone and done it again.
