Beth Gibbons, vocalist of both Portishead and Rustin Man, turns 46 today. Here’s to one of the best, most soulful, female voices English music has ever produced. Below is a selection of her best clips, but let’s start with this haunting cover of the Velvet Underground:
Beth Gibbons & Rustin Man “Candy Says”
Beth Gibbons “L’Annulaire”
Portishead “Glory Box” (live)
Portishead “The Rip”
