About this product

Product Information

Kate Bush began her career in 1978 at the age of 19 with the single 'Wuthering Heights', inspired by a film adaptation of the Emily Bronte novel, the first No. 1 UK single to be written and sung by a female artist, and the accompanying album 'The Kick Inside', both of which established her as a highly individual talent. She has always preferred the recording studio with live performances and tours having been few and far between, and all her albums have been very successful at home and abroad, her third, 'Never For Ever' (1980), being the first by a female artist to enter the British chart at No. 1. Her eclectic, experimental musical style with its often literary and unconventional lyrical themes has defied easy categorisation, and earned the lasting admiration of fans, fellow performers and music critics alike, while an eclectic roster of guest artists including Eric Clapton, Elton John, Prince and Stephen Fry have appeared on her work,. This book provides a thorough examination of the songs on all her singles, albums, and occasional recorded collaborations with other artists.

    Not impressed, but perhaps I should have expected to be. The idea is a good one, but once as always this is yet another book that lazily doesn't check its basic facts - most of which are extremely easy to check because the information is out there. Thus there are numerous errors, which is irritating for the true fan and misleading for the casual fan. I didn't get as far as the list of songs: I found this book too unengaging. However, until Kate Bush writes her own book - which it seems she's unlikely to do, her 'Leaving My Tracks' for Sidgwick & Jackson having been abandoned in the early 1980s - more books like this will be churned out year after year. Save your money - there's nothing new here.
