[P] Portishead live at La musicale
Maybe one of my many wise and insightful readers could explain why someone whose main musical passions are for keyboard and chamber music from Bach to Schubert (especially Schubert) should be so smitten with Portishead. Well, an odd conjunction perhaps, but there it is.Anyway, for other enthusiasts, here's a really rather stunning series of live performances, recently recorded for French TV in front of a small (and, hooray, during songs, silent) audience. You can watch the videos in high quality too.SilenceHunterMysteronsThe RipMagic DoorsWandering StarsMachine GunNylon SmileThreadsRoadsWe Carry OnBeth at her best? Enjoy!
