Beth Orton - Stolen Car
From the town of Dereham (Norwich, England) to NYC studios. Beth Orton performed her main single from "Central Reservation" LP, her third release.ç Original taping and upload was made by Daniel Poitras and you can find it right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g43RPdahSZM
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!

Members of this band, that formed in Oxford had previously been in the twee pop bands, Tallulah Gosh and Heavenly. I think that I saw them play once, as I lived in Oxford for a while. Amelia Fletcher, the singer, is also a renowned economist and was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in the 2020 Birthday Honours for services to the economy.

I saw this Aussie band play a few times, back in the day. One of the few bands I can remember seeing who employed a theremin, although not on this song. It has a bit of John Spencer about it, I think. This is one hell of a debut single.
Unfortunately, one of the band members had a serious health condition, I can’t remember the details, that led to the band’s demise. in the mid-2000s, suffering a fall and an induced coma. Still, they had another album in them before disbanding in 2008. They made a comeback some years later and have two further albums.
