100% portishead has been on my weekly rotation since '96 or '97. Never once been tired of them. Absolute masterpieces: Dummy and Roseland NYC Live. Beginning to end ❤❤
You need to head DIRECTLY into “Roads” off of this same performance. In fact, the entire Roseland NYC Live album is high tier art. Beth Gibbons is at her best here and a songstress decades out of place. She channels so much 30’s/40’s blues into her voice it’s insane. They, along with Massive Attack, really helped propel Trip Hop out of the Bristol music scene and onto global audiences in the early 90’s. Recommend adding “Unfinished Sympathy” from Massive Attack as well as “Midnight in a Perfect World” from DJ Shadow to your viewing arsenal for more Trip Hop classics.
Geoff Barrow who was on the decks in the video was a tape operator and producer for Massive Attack. Tricky was one of the vocalists for Massive Attack on there first album. It was said that when Geoff played tricky the demo of Glorybox, tricky took the same sample to create Hell is round the corner for his solo album. Both Massive Attack and Portishead originate from Bristol, England.
So excited you did my suggestion. I had so many ideas but I chose this because if you've never heard of Portishead before you're going to want more. Their album "Dummy" is amazing and anyone of those song could've been picked. I strongly recommend watching that whole NYC performance.
Members of Portishead originally came from Portishead, England. Roseland NYC is one of the greatest live albums\videos ever. Portishead and Tricky ran in the same circles, Portishead had a remix of Hell is Around the Corner. and both Portishead and Tricky worked with emixed Gravediggaz, if you don't know Gravediggaz you need to know Gravediggaz.
Portishead didn't have a remix of Hell is around the corner, but both bands used a sample from Ike's rap by Isaac Hayes as the basis for their songs. Portishead made Glorybox and Tricky made Hell is around the corner.
My friend told me about Portishead back in high school. Told me they are like a female fronted Radiohead. This is my first time hearing them and I really loved this 🔥 Good recommendation from the Patreon.
Excellent live album this, just keep going with it. Portishead, Massive Attack, Tricky were all Bristol based and their 3 main albums* all filtered out around the same time - it really was a whole vibe at the time. *Dummy, Mezzanine, Maxinquaye
The entire live in NYC album is straight 🔥. Not a weak track. Probably one of the best live albums of all time- of any genre. Such interesting and well done versions of an obscure style. Beth’s vocals are beautifully haunting.
Finally getting to some Trip Hop classics! The lead singer is Beth Gibbons and was fire in this group Tricky colabed with Massive Attack, not Portishead.
My absolute favorite band of all time!! I second everyone saying "Roads" live. Their album "Dummy" was my literal go-to in high school, I still know every word. Thank you for reacting!!
This, gentlemen, is Miss Beth Gibbons - probably the most fragile and at the same time powerful voice in the business. She is god. Portishead are god. Named after a harbour city in the UK. Greatest TripHop band on the planet for sure. Please do yourself a favor and check out more Portishead.! This recording is one of the best live albums ever captured on tape.
Just FYI; I see a lot of people recently calling a group of classical musicians a "symphony". This is incorrect. It is an "Orchestra". A symphony is an example of a piece of music an orchestra might perform. Orchestra = The Musicians, Symphony = The music. Anyway, glad you like Portishead, they are 100% Trip Hop legends, and their music feels timeless.
Her name is Beth Gibbons, and she's got one helluva voice. Portishead has plenty of great stuff to check out. Roads, from this same performance, is another live must. I really dig her rendition of Candy Says live at Paleo 2003, really cool. As well as Tom the Model, but those two tracks aren't Trip Hop. Very cool lass with a very wide range of musical styles.
Portishead was only a secret to you guys. Portishead are from Bristol, UK and took their name from Portishead, UK. Anything off the "Dummy" album is gold. We rocked this album to death back in '94. I have never seen this live performance, really good.
Most people call Tricky triphop, but I think I remember reading that he doesn't like being labeled that... he definitely fits inside that genre though.
I first heard Portishead on MTV in 1994 (Glory Box), went out and bought the album and fell in love with every track from the first listening and still play all 3 albums regularly, usually back to back.Im not a big fan of live music in general so as much play time as I give to the studio versions I think ive only ever played the copy of this concert I have once or twice. The studio work is what give the instrumental genius of Portishead its shine imo. That said, when they performed Roads at Glasto live I got quite emotional and teary which saying something considering Im supposed to be a hard faced ex coal miner and steel worker.
this whole concert is worth checking out. One of my favourite live performances, and Beth's voice is just soooooooo silky smooth. Triphop is a little hard to define, but it's generally a group of artists from the UK including Tricky who made very atmospheric music with a mix of singing, just instrumentals and soft rap. They often collabed and you'll find crossovers on most of the triphop artists music. Massive Attack are probably the most well known and Beth sung on their album Mezzanine on the song Tear Drop
You have to do more from this performance (live from Roseland NYC), as others have said, the track 'Roads' is a great place to start. Also check out the other trip hop pioneers 'Massive Attack ' (from the same city as Portishead - Bristol, UK), the track Unfinished Sympathy is immense. Side note - Portishead's lead singer, Beth Gibbons, was a guest vocalist on Kendrick Lamar's latest album on the track 'Mother I Sober'. She's a generational talent.
Tricky was a frequent collaborator of massive attack, he was almost a partime member. Portishead and massive attack are the most foremost bands in the trip hop genre, I'm guessing hollywood got some sort of wires crossed but heard about tricky and portishead in the same conversation and melded them into one band. Maybe? Or just a rando coincindence
When anyone says that sampling is not art...they need to see this performance. It shows how they build the music by each layer. It's amazing on a technical level.
That whole performances is a live album to and she is smoking cigarettes throughout this whole show and her voice is PITCH PERFECT ! 🤘🏾💯... One of the great 90 masterpieces from my youth 😁
Tricky comes from the band massive attack from bristol in england, their blue lines album is an awesome listen! portishead is just down the road from bristol, hence why they all ran in the same circles back in the day!
I remember watching this and being amazed she smoked almost the entire time. It seemed like a never ending cigarette lol I’m glad you got to the live from Roseland stuff. It’s my Time Machine performance that I wish I could have been old enough to be at since it happened in 97
I have the DVD of this concert. The whole thing is fantastic. Portishead is awesome. Love live trip hop! Edit: Beth Gibbons is the vocalist. She recently recorded Polish vocals for Gorecki's Symphony No. 3 (Symphony of Sorrowful Songs). I think the whole thing is on YT and it's worth a look, although it's like 45 minutes long and probably not great for a reaction. Very good to get lost in though.
This band and Radiohead. They transport you places. It’s dangerous. you really get into a trance and it’s hard to breakaway. The instrumentation is amazing especially live.
They are fantastic my top 10 of all time, along tool and metallica. Whole show is fantastic. check glory box - same tune as tricky used for hell is round a corner. then check mike pattons live versiom for glory box :D
Tricky, Portishead, Massive Attack all came from the English city of Bristol at the same time in the 90s. They all knew each other, and often worked together.
Tricky, Massive Attack, and Portishead came from the same scene in Bristol. They basically defined the Bristol Trip-Hop scene. Tricky was a member of Massive Attack
Ah, Portishead. Nothing ever sweeter and more groovin' was made. This whole concert is insanely good. Beth Gibbons is one of my favorite singers of all time. She has some good stuff out with Rustin Man as well.
Portishead had 2 albums and became a legend, this is from the third live album, and they have 2 more later albums way more electronic which are also interesting but the first two are flawless.
Glory box, sour times, wandering star, numb. Total total masterpieces
Dummy is just ridiculous. There is not bad songs on there.
100% portishead has been on my weekly rotation since '96 or '97. Never once been tired of them. Absolute masterpieces: Dummy and Roseland NYC Live. Beginning to end ❤❤
I've been listening to album dummy for 13 years. Wondering Star and Glory box are fabulous!
❤
Dummy one of the greatest albums ever. Period.
You need to head DIRECTLY into “Roads” off of this same performance. In fact, the entire Roseland NYC Live album is high tier art.

and Glory Box 👍
Wonderful song
@@riveness her cover of "black sabbath" with bristol band gonga is a thing of beauty.
Beth Gibbons is Lauren Bacall levels of effortless cool. Quelle chanteuse incroyable!!
Geoff Barrow who was on the decks in the video was a tape operator and producer for Massive Attack. Tricky was one of the vocalists for Massive Attack on there first album. It was said that when Geoff played tricky the demo of Glorybox, tricky took the same sample to create Hell is round the corner for his solo album. Both Massive Attack and Portishead originate from Bristol, England.
He's also making hip hop with his dj collective quakers.
The Quakers album is banging.
there's also the magnificent "Beak>"
I think Portishead is from portishead.
@@jonashcroft8043they're from Bristol.
So excited you did my suggestion. I had so many ideas but I chose this because if you've never heard of Portishead before you're going to want more. Their album "Dummy" is amazing and anyone of those song could've been picked. I strongly recommend watching that whole NYC performance.
Great shout, man! So many thanks for that. It took me right back to those days.
Yes amazing album. Amazing talented artists. All 3 albums they did were worth a listen.
The live version of "Roads" from this same concert is absolutely legendary, maybe the best Portishead track of them all, which is saying something!
Tricky , Portishead and Massive attack are from the same english town Bristol, that’s where the sound comes from.
Love portishead, this whole live performance is amazing.
Members of Portishead originally came from Portishead, England. Roseland NYC is one of the greatest live albums\videos ever. Portishead and Tricky ran in the same circles, Portishead had a remix of Hell is Around the Corner. and both Portishead and Tricky worked with

They are from Bristol England so is massive attack. Trip hop sneaker pimps.
Yes there is. Bands from Bristol.
My friend told me about Portishead back in high school. Told me they are like a female fronted Radiohead. This is my first time hearing them and I really loved this 🔥 Good recommendation from the Patreon.
Portishead is a hidden gem. So unique. Nothing else is in thier sound.
This entire performance is fire, and their music catalog is so good and unique. Check out more from this show
Close your eyes, fast forward or rewind to any point in this performance, and you'll still wind up right where you want to be.
Excellent live album this, just keep going with it. Portishead, Massive Attack, Tricky were all Bristol based and their 3 main albums* all filtered out around the same time - it really was a whole vibe at the time.
*Dummy, Mezzanine, Maxinquaye
Heligoland > mezzanine
Don't forget Roni Size and Reprezent's Mercury Prize winning New Forms. Not trip-hop, drum and bass, but every bit ground breaking.
The entire live in NYC album is straight 🔥. Not a weak track. Probably one of the best live albums of all time- of any genre. Such interesting and well done versions of an obscure style. Beth’s vocals are beautifully haunting.
5:16 Sneaker Pimps - Six Underground
An absolute masterpiece of trip hop. Beth Gibbons is the GOAT. This whole concert is simply one ear-gasm after another.
Finally getting to some Trip Hop classics! The lead singer is Beth Gibbons and was fire in this group
Tricky colabed with Massive Attack, not Portishead.
I saw these cats on my 30th birthday in 98. I love them.
Goddamn this is a blast from the past. I highly suggest to anyone that hasn't watched this performance in its entirety to check it out.
More from this performance please! They kick ass!
Portishead is one of my favorite bands. Their live album is up there in one of the best live albums EVER. Roads during this recording is INCREDIBLE.
My absolute favorite band of all time!! I second everyone saying "Roads" live. Their album "Dummy" was my literal go-to in high school, I still know every word. Thank you for reacting!!
and you were thinking of Massive Attack (Tricky was a member)- both triphop
This, gentlemen, is Miss Beth Gibbons - probably the most fragile and at the same time powerful voice in the business. She is god. Portishead are god. Named after a harbour city in the UK.
Greatest TripHop band on the planet for sure.
Please do yourself a favor and check out more Portishead.! This recording is one of the best live albums ever captured on tape.
Portishead isn't a city. More like a village close to the big city of Bristol.
Beth is on my skin. I inked her on me because I can't live without her.
Just FYI; I see a lot of people recently calling a group of classical musicians a "symphony". This is incorrect. It is an "Orchestra". A symphony is an example of a piece of music an orchestra might perform. Orchestra = The Musicians, Symphony = The music.
Anyway, glad you like Portishead, they are 100% Trip Hop legends, and their music feels timeless.
Love Portishead and this gig was on another level. Wish I had made the trip back in the day from England over to the US to see this. Legendary.
So great to see two people who really are blown away by fantastic music 😀
Thanks to my oldest daughter (I was born in ‘58), she turned me on to “Dummy”. Blew my mind, another album I cannot live without.
Her name is Beth Gibbons, and she's got one helluva voice. Portishead has plenty of great stuff to check out. Roads, from this same performance, is another live must. I really dig her rendition of Candy Says live at Paleo 2003, really cool. As well as Tom the Model, but those two tracks aren't Trip Hop. Very cool lass with a very wide range of musical styles.

We rocked this album to death back in '94. I have never seen this live performance, really good.
I saw Portishead in '98... One of the best shows I've seen musically, period.
Memories..love this band.. been ther 4 me in tough times
Saw them live in 98... the dj opened with a tiny orchestra and played some surf stuff it was amazing. He was amazing.
I remember that- so freakin amazing!! Damn.
I remember jamming to this band back in the day.
The feeling that people get when they hear portishead for the first time is fantastic.
You guys will love anything on the Roseland album
Beth Gibbons on lead vocals, like a British trip-hop torch singer. Using a live orchestra on their songs was beyond the next level.
Oh snap! About time for some Portishead on the channel.
I'm a metal head. I love this group. Tricky is trip hop and yes there is a connection with portishead
This is a great band. So many good memories from the year this came out.. So unique.. Definitely try more Portishead
Firstly- All British women smoke- secondly she is on Kendricks latest album. She is every 40 yo women's hero
Man, Portishead brings back memories. Holy shit, guess I’m listening to Glory Box after this.🤘🏼
Big fan of Portishead since I heard them for the first time 30 years ago. Glad you guys decided to heck them out.
I absolutely 💜 Scorn!! Off The Craft Soundtrack, totally epic 90s! I freaked when Smokey started singing 6 Underground! 🖤🎵🎶🎵🖤
It is trip hop. Sour Times is their 💎
Portishead is my home town, met Beth and Geoff frequently - Beth is so humble, unassuming, but an absolute powerhouse!
One of my favourite things is watching people watch Portishead for the first time.
Nothing will ever come close to the creativity of Portishead, my all time faves!!
Most people call Tricky triphop, but I think I remember reading that he doesn't like being labeled that... he definitely fits inside that genre though.
Saw these guys at Glastonbury back in 2013 - they were incredible. Beth Gibbons’s voice is stunning
Check out Glory Box from this same concert. Amazing. Beth Gibbons rules
I first heard Portishead on MTV in 1994 (Glory Box), went out and bought the album and fell in love with every track from the first listening and still play all 3 albums regularly, usually back to back.Im not a big fan of live music in general so as much play time as I give to the studio versions I think ive only ever played the copy of this concert I have once or twice.

One of my FAVORITE live albums to go to...just put the whole thing on, grab a drink and escape...
Morning guys! Never heard of this band,but really enjoyed this! Yup she was groovin! 🤓❤️🎸
The respect you guys give to all artist and genres on your show needs to be complemented,you guys are G.O.A.T.S.🏴🏴🏴🏴
So Portishead, Massive Attack and Tricky all come from Bristol in southwest England. Tiny place with a big influence
That’s just run of the mill for Portishesd from their first 2 albums…classic albums from front to back!
❤ Beth... check out "Roads" from the same concert
Beth kills that performance! Roads is my all-time fav Portishead track.
Most definitely Wandering Star, that shit is awesome!!!
this whole concert is worth checking out. One of my favourite live performances, and Beth's voice is just soooooooo silky smooth.

Wasn't it the singer from Cocteau Twins who sang on Teardrop?
@@CraigWrightStraygoat you're absolutely right 😅 i was convinced it was Beth 🤦♂️
@@eZTarg8mk2 She does sound similar. I assumed Tear Drop was a Portishead track for a long time.
More please! These guys sound sooo good.
Pure jazz. Anything that is hip-hop and rock& Roll has been inspired by jazz.
You have to do more from this performance (live from Roseland NYC), as others have said, the track 'Roads' is a great place to start. Also check out the other trip hop pioneers 'Massive Attack ' (from the same city as Portishead - Bristol, UK), the track Unfinished Sympathy is immense.

Check out "Pedestal" from this same album
Portishead - Western Eyes is amazing
Tricky was a frequent collaborator of massive attack, he was almost a partime member. Portishead and massive attack are the most foremost bands in the trip hop genre, I'm guessing hollywood got some sort of wires crossed but heard about tricky and portishead in the same conversation and melded them into one band.

Glory Box and Roads from the same gig. Pure trip hop bliss those two

Tricky was a member of Massive Attack the other pioneers of trip-hop
This entire DVD is amazing. It's a whole Concert that's worth watching.

Tricky, Portishead, Massive Attack all came from the English city of Bristol at the same time in the 90s. They all knew each other, and often worked together.
Everything about "Only You" from this session is so much cooler
Tricky, Massive Attack, and Portishead came from the same scene in Bristol. They basically defined the Bristol Trip-Hop scene. Tricky was a member of Massive Attack
Whoever ran sound for this deserves recognition.
They virtually invented trip hop. Hopefully you’ve checked out their first album, it was so insanely ahead of its time…..
Great group...lotsa good "hangover" cuts.
Total timeless classic.
Love Portishead and other darker electronic and trip hop acts like
Massive Attack, Tricky, UNKLE, HTDA, Ghostpoet, ALLFLAWS
Go down the rabbit hole. The whole performance live at Roseland Hall is life experiencing
52. I was listening to this I can't recall when
Wandering Star next please please, it's sooooo good. Beth slays every time.
The vocalist name is Beth Gibbons from UK. She is 58-59 year old now.
Another trip hop classic to get to? Zero 7's In the Waiting Line
“Sour Times” for sure
Massive Attack and Potishead got me into soooooo many women's knickers during the 90's.
More of this genre please guys 🥰
Looking forward to Fear Factory Friday!!!!! Can't wait friends
I'm surprised they haven't listened to Fear Factory before because they kick a$$.
Yes trip hop. Literally the definition of trip hop
Ah, Portishead. Nothing ever sweeter and more groovin' was made. This whole concert is insanely good. Beth Gibbons is one of my favorite singers of all time. She has some good stuff out with Rustin Man as well.
Watch the hole show NYC Live! I'ts pure diamond!!
I recently just got the anniversary vinyl cut off the Roseland ballroom sessions. Which is where this comes from. 🔥🔥💯💯
Do more from this show one of the greatest shows ever
This conecrt is an all time classic.
Also gotta check out massive attack, and more Portishead
More cool 90's trip-hop would be Massive Attack and Sneaker pimps
Portishead had 2 albums and became a legend, this is from the third live album, and they have 2 more later albums way more electronic which are also interesting but the first two are flawless.
