Desert island vids: Portishead pick their YouTube faves

by Mike Diver [Edit this content] ▾ 2 comments 16:01 August 7th, 2008

Portishead's Adrian Utley and Geoff Barrow have picked a number of their favourite YouTube clips. Then: someone has filmed the pair talking about said clips.

Mingus, Hendrix, Clapton... Om playing live in Seattle, Charlie Brooker and Team Brick. There's something for everyone. Maybe. If you like what Portishead (minus Beth - aren't they always?) like, anyway.

Time-waster? Watch:

Forthcoming on DiS: an interview with Barrow about the Invada label he co-founded. To do now: vote for Portishead's Third in our Pluto Prize, HERE. Got more time to waste: click here and sit tight for a solid half-hour.

DiScuss: Where the hell are they in this video?
