Album Notes
THIS WOMAN'S WORK is a anthology of 96 songs from art rocker--and dancer--Kate Bush, covering her most fertile creative years from 1978 to 1990. In addition to B-sides and live cuts, the collection, based on six of Bush's albums, contains such hits as "The Man with the Child in His Eyes," "Running up That Hill," and "Wuthering Heights."
Blessed with one of the loveliest voices in the industry and a talent for creating theatrical, affecting songs, Kate Bush is the Stanley Kubrick of recorded music. Her life-long career has resulted in only nine full-length studio albums, one official live release and one album's worth of remixed/reworked tracks from previous releases. And much like Kubrick's films, each of those albums is an impassioned, singular work of artistic vision crafted by a perfectionist.
This Woman's Work, released by EMI in 1990, collects Bush's first six studio releases supplemented by three full-length 12-inch records of bonus material. Beginning with her auspicious 1978 pop release, The Kick Inside, through her glossy 1989 production, The Sensual World, Bush's studio releases are presented here with their British cover art.
The collected works and supplemental photographs are an elegant testament to Bush's unique vision and eclectic talents. The musical range and time span of the material also convey a fascinating evolution of those talents. Highlights from Bush's albums are numerous. In short, 1980-1985 stands as her most creative period, yielding Never for Ever, The Dreaming, and Hounds of Love. Never for Ever displays an uncanny leap (from Lionheart) in Bush's writing and performance skills. On compositions like "The Wedding List," "Delius (Song of Summer)," and "Breathing," she lays down fertile groundwork and sows the seeds that grow into trees on The Dreaming and Hounds of Love. The Dreaming is Bush's most accomplished and progressive work to date. Startling and even overwhelming at times, the album is rife with experimentation. Bush's vocal delivery and lyrics transcend anything she has done before or since. From the otherworldly darkness and bewildering rage of "Get Out of My House" to the quirky, fairy garden sounds of "Suspended in Gaffa," The Dreaming is a display of the artist at full tilt, all synapses firing toward a thematic, visionary end. Hounds of Love is Bush's most commercially successful album, and for good reason. Part pop, part prog rock/art rock, Hounds hits all corners of Bush's fan base. A slickly produced, mature, and personal work, the album is actually a sort of heightened, warmer continuation of The Dreaming. Featuring the driving, upbeat radio hits "Hounds of Love" and "The Big Sky," the moody, nightmarish sounds of "Waking the Witch," and the heart swelling on the lilting "Morning Fog" and "Watching You Without Me," Hounds is a reflection of the matured artist on the verge of introspection and assessment.The bonus LPs included in the box set are the main draw for hardcore fans, comprised of previously unreleased material, much of which has since been made available (at least for a limited time), and previously available work that had been long out of print. The highlights include the vocal workouts: "December Will Be Magic Again" (1980), "Under the Ivy" (1985), the doleful, a cappella "My Lagan Love"
