These days the weather in Holland is the best you can get in the autumn! The sun shines through the colored leaves, making every moment a flickr possibility. Some records for me are connected to a certain season. Beth Gibbons (Portishead) and Rustin man released ‘Out of Season’ in 2002 and it’s still my favorite autumn record. Even though it’s not done to post about albums older than 3 weeks and younger than 20 years, I feel the urge to do so. The music is acoustic, slow, contemplational and sometimes jazzy. Her voice is enchanting (sorry for mentioning this inevitable word again on Ulkedoof!) and full of the depths of life. Check this:

I find it very hard not to finish this post's title ('all the leaves are- all-the-leaves-are brownnnnn').
And I feel the same way; ultimate autumn record!
BTW: Portishead are said to be done recording their new album in november making a 2008 release very likely. But the question is; is there anybody out there still dying for a new Portishead record? They've kinda lost their momentum (<: understatement).
It is the second best album ever recorded as far as I'm concerned. Utterly emotional and enthralling.
Thanks for bringing it up!
