Beth Orton - Stolen Car [1999] (yewtu.be)

I had heard some of Beth Orton’s songs from her first album but it was only with the release of the second album, Central Reservation, that I really got into her. I went in a trip to Perth, Western Australia and had some time on my hands.l, So I went to check out some tunes in a local record shop

You may remember listening to CDs in stores? Central Reservation was at one of the listening points and Stolen Car was the opening track. Usually, you would skip through the tracks quite quickly to get a feel for if you liked the tunes enough to buy the CD, but with this disc I avidly listened to the whole album and then rushed to the counter to buy it.

I’ve never seen this performance on Letterman before. Enjoy Dave’s slightly stilted introduction!
