I just bought _The Whole Story_ video the other day (I have the
Cassette & CD of it) and was amazed by the depth in the videos
of some of the songs, ie. 'Breathing', some of the videos
I have never seen before, like 'Experiment IV'.
I have been a fan of KB since 'Wuthering Heights' hit the charts back
in the 70s, and am wondering where I can get a list of fan clubs that
I can join here in Australia, or overseas.
Also, can someone answer the following questions: (excuse
my ignorance...)
1) How old is she ? And how old was she when she recorded her first
album?
2) Is she married, (the guy that took here photo for the cover of
_The Whole Story_ is that her husband?) [I have a poster
of that cover!]
3) Roughly where does she live (yes, I know the address is classified B-)))
4) What is this new CD of hers that was recently mentioned on the net?
5) What DIGESTS can I join to talk to other KB freaks and to obtain
more info on her.
6) Has anyone got a transcription of the video interview that I heard
about last year, to do with her album "The Sensual World" ??
7) Will she ever do a world tour ?? (I pray she will!!!!)
Hmm, thats all for the moment.
I am still amazed that this is the first time that I have read this group
and I see that it is dominated by KB fans' postings .. USENET never ceases
to amaze me..!

This is it. I think all (or most) KB fans frequent this newsgroup/digest. > 7) Will she ever do a world tour ?? (I pray she will!!!!)

In Kent, actually. As a child she lived near Welling in a place called East Wickham Farm. She now lives closer to London near a place called Black Heath, or something like that. Peter Fitzgerald-Morris of Homeground drove a bunch of us to within a few hundred feet of her house once. Ed ed@das.llnl.gov

[A few of these questions were answered in other posts, including mine. I'll just deal with some of the other questions here.] >I have been a fan of KB since 'Wuthering Heights' hit the charts back >in the 70s, and am wondering where I can get a list of fan clubs that >I can join here in Australia, or overseas. Wow, that's early! How well did W.H. do in Australia? As you know, it didn't do anything here in America, so American fans who were fans from the beginning are VERY rare. I only know about Chris Williams and Andy Marvick, actually. As someone who became a fan in 1982, I'm often considered somewhat of an early bird. There is an Australian fanzine called "Dreamtime". Unfortunately, I don't know the details. Andy Marvick subscribes to it, so if he reads this perhaps he can post the address. > 4) What is this new CD of hers that was recently mentioned on the net? There are several possibilities. I assume you already know about and own Kate's last studio album, _The Sensual World_. Last fall a box set of Kate's work called _This Woman's Work_ was released. It contains all six of her CDs plus two CDs of B-sides, alternate mixes, etc. Then, even more recently some bootleg CDs have come out. _Passing Through Air_ and _If You Could See Me Fly_ together have the several dozen Kate demos that fans discovered a few years ago. If you're REALLY a Kate freak you MUST get these in some form or other. I don't know what _Alone At My Piano_ has, but I'd guess it's the same stuff. > 6) Has anyone got a transcription of the video interview that I heard > about last year, to do with her album "The Sensual World" ?? Which video interview? I know about several, all of which were posted to this newsgroup when they appeared. You might be able to find them archived in the alaska computer. >I am still amazed that this is the first time that I have read this group >and I see that it is dominated by KB fans' postings .. USENET never ceases >to amaze me..! That's because it was CREATED as a Kate Bush discussion group. Isn't life wonderful? Ed ed@das.llnl.gov
