About this deal

Hello my copy seems to have a press release large gatefold sleeve with a picture of the front cover of hounds of love with the text The Album hounds of love with a purple ribbon and a double sided purple A4 sheets.

All image and audio content is used by permission of the copyright holders or their agents, and/or according to fair dealing as per the UK Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. Though not the most prolific of album artists, Bush's works make up in impact what they lack in frequency. Hounds of Love" arrived at a wonderfully opportune moment, and it was an easy sell: MTV were becoming inclusive of other genres and artists, and record labels more willing to spend vast sums on videos due to their established promotional advantages.I just fear most won't like her other stuff due to its artistic avant garde nature, it's the opposite of mainstream which is what stranger things is. Because of that, most probably, plenty of her music is being reissued and made available for those who missed it first time round, or those who still value its truly unique sound. I can only say that I found this track to be one of the weaker tracks on the old version and listening now, it sounds so much better. It is in these moments that Bush's essential qualities, not to mention her genius, are truly unfettered, unveiled and realized, which goes some way to explaining the album's enduring popularity. Language - Regardless of country of origin all tracks are sung in English, unless otherwise stated in our description.

I wouldn't say 'Wuthering Heights' is because Running always charts, more radio-friendly, and so on! So overall the second half of this album (the concept side) is beautiful, but the first 5 tracks don't sit as well together as they do on much earlier CDs, including the late 90s remaster (which had the album mix plus several bonuses). for me some of the singles on the album seem a bit muffled/muted sounding (and I'm not just referring to the inclusion of the 7" mix of Big Sky).

Disjunctive, idiosyncratic and so very, very inventive, Kate Bush's 1985 magnum opus, "Hounds of Love", was the intentionally streamlined yet defiant response to complaints regarding her efficiency in the studio and detractors of the lyrical and structural esotericism inherent in her work.
