What you're about to read is a collection of pointers to some of the music I've discovered on the iTunes Music Store, music I like enough that I want to share it. If you're an iPod owner and an iTunes fan (and if you aren't, what are you doing here?), maybe you'll find something new. Click on any of the CD covers to bounce over to the store and sample a few tracks. And then maybe stop by my other blog for a few well chosen words (and maybe a random snark or two). | ||||||

Have some music to recommend? I can always use a few pointers. Use the comments link at the bottom of the page. | ||||||

Comfort of Strangers / Beth Orton | |
I discovered Beth Orton through her covers: an absolutely haunting version of The Five Stairsteps' Ooh Child and a faintly chilling, almost stalkerish sounding rendition of Bobby Vinton's I Love How You Love Me, sadly missing from the iTunes Store. But much of her other work has left me cold; it's too overproduced to let me focus on Orton's voice and her delivery. Which is why I appreciate Comfort of Strangers. Overproduced is a word that need not apply here. | |
