Beth Orton
Comfort Of Strangers
180 Gram Vinyl with Download 'Comfort of Strangers' was Beth Orton's fourth album from 2005 and was produced by Jim O'Rourke It is possibly Beth's most intimate and personal work to date and features 14 songs which are at times sad funny playful and poignant romantic always lyrical and on occasion even a touch sentimental 'Comfort of Strangers' represents a total sense of reinvention a fabulous alchemy resulting from a set of simple rules that Beth Orton decided for the album which included only analog recordings with sparse arrangements and a spontaneous almost live feel In fact it's mostly a 'one take' album two takes maximum with minimal overdubs 'Comfort of Strangers' is a beautiful understated neofolk album
