About
Trailer Park is the solo debut of British singer Beth Orton. Combining folk, electronica, and trip hop elements, it earned Orton two BRIT Award nominations. The only single from the album was the opening track, "She Cries Your Name", which previously appeared in a different form on William Orbit's album Strange Cargo Hinterland. All songs were co-written by Orton except for a haunting, sparse take on the Phil Spector composition, "I Wish I Never Saw the Sunshine." The album was among the first to fuse elements of 60s and 70s folk with modern electronica and trip-hop. An expanded two-disc Legacy Edition was released internationally on March 10, 2009.
