Trip Hop's popularization can be traced to Margaret Thatcher. In the early 1990s, she was responsible for the chance meeting of two individuals who would form Portishead, which took the unlikely sub-genre worldwide. Join me as I dig into the album story of Portishead and their debut LP "Dummy."

If you like digging into Album Stories like this, joing me as I dig into the box set liner notes in Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness by The Smashing Pumpkins: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/obloiZii0Ku3qmQ.html

I haven’t watched this vid yet, but the title alone has me fascinated.

I just want to tell you how much I'm absolutely loving this channel, Andy. I see some bizarrely negative, shitty comments on some of your other uploads, and I'm baffled by all of them. You bring such an honest enthusiasm to your material that it pulls in even uninitiated viewers. Since becoming a fan, I've started building my own vinyl collection -- after months of fence-sitting, I caved and bought Blue Rev after hearing your review! We need more content like this to dilute the landfill of modern KZfaq. Keep 'em coming!

Awe thanks man! That means a lot!! 😊 Blue Rev is such a great album too, and the digital version really didn't land as well as the vinyl one for me. Glad you're hanging around and checking out my vids!

I can’t imagine Portishead would be super thrilled about this association

Right? It's a key part of their history though, which I find pretty fascinating.

Portishead is Sadboy music before sadboy music. I still listen to them to this day.

Ditto. They are one of those artists that seem to pop into my radar every so often and become obsessed all over again.

Some versions of the album have an extra track, It's a Fire, between Wandering Star and Numb. My original copy (in the UK) didn't have it but after a burglary which took my whole CD collection, the replacement copy of Dummy that the insurance provided had it. It's worth a listen but I genuinely think it detracts from the listening experience, rather than adds to it. Wandering Star into Numb makes more sense to me.

Ya know... I'm pretty sure I had one of those CDs growing up. I definitely remember that song...

Glad you are enjoying it! I love putting these together but they do take longer. Would like to get to a point where there’s a new one each week, but it might be closer to every other 😎
