Title: A unique voice and some great songs
Review: I got Trailer Park when it was first released in the late 90's and waited for it to take off. It never really did. Then her next album, Central Reservation was released and again I waited...and again not much response. While Beth has a large loyal following, it is nowhere near the following she deserves. She is a talented songwriter with a wonderfully distinct voice. I really like a number of the songs on the album, but I especially like "She Cries Your Name" and "I Wish I Never Saw The Sunshine". If you are deciding between this and Central Reservation as your introduction to Beth Orton, I actually like this album better. On the other album, the song "Central Reservation" is a great song and got some air play and some dance remixes got some play, but I think overall this album has stronger songs. (Don't let the Dance Remix comment throw you...Beth's music is mellow ballads and funky songs. She is not Madonna, she is much more Indigo Girls and The Story.)
