‘Comfort of Strangers’ was Beth Orton’s fourth album from 2005 and was produced by Jim O’Rourke. It is possibly Beth’s most intimate and personal work to date, and features 14 songs which are at times sad, funny, playful and poignant, romantic, always lyrical and on occasion even a touch sentimental. ‘Comfort of Strangers’ represents a total sense of reinvention, a fabulous alchemy resulting from a set of simple rules that Beth Orton decided for the album, which included only analog recordings, with sparse arrangements and a spontaneous, almost live, feel. In fact it’s mostly a ‘one take’ album – two takes maximum, with minimal overdubs. ‘Comfort of Strangers’ is a beautiful understated neo-folk album.
