Beth Orton first ever webcast. Fantastic performance and a must for anyone who's not in the UK, US or Oz. Because the rest of the world never seems to be able to get Beth to play in their countries. Including mine.

Frustrated why
Beth can't release her beautiful videos even as enchanced

ourselves with these streaming videos.
