When it comes to her songwriting I heard someone recently point out that the first 3 or 4 albums were full of songs where she was writing/imagining situations from other character's points of view. The later stuff is written from her own personal experiences.... Combine that with the change in her production methods etc and it really is like 2 different artists...

In fact, 'Hounds of Love' is one of my top 10 songs of all time... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She quoted Gabriel for "opening the windows" on Never Forever and she moved into using sounds to form ideas almost dropping the musical life she'd had to that point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunsfreddy2003 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Some great thoughts and comments here guys. If any of you are interested we did a teaser of the new KB tribute band last night using a live stream from the singer and keys player on Facebook. The link is below and I’d be really keen for any feedback good or bad from proper fans of her work - thanks. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stingray5 Posted March 27, 2019 Author Share Posted March 27, 2019 Much kudos to Lisa-Marie and Mark for this raw, no frills performance. Vocals and piano both excellent. Wishing you every success with the band, too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunsfreddy2003 Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Digging this thread up again - I joined a Kate Bush tribute band back in February this year and have had to learn a lot of these tunes, invest in a fretless and learn how to play the damn thing too. Agree that John Giblin is one hell of a player! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know if it’s been mention earlier in this thread, but for some full on Giblin action, check out John Martyn’s Grace & Danger, which I was steered towards in another thread. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes.......Grace & Danger has some classic fretless playing on it. One of my favourite albums from way back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunsfreddy2003 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 I’ve been busy with my Kate Bush tribute band (Moments Of Pleasure) over the last few months although Coronavirus has stopped all the shows we had planned at the moment ☹️ This week we managed to record a “remote” version of Army Dreamers - let me know what you think. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all recorded our parts using iPhones or web cams and then they put it together using something called Power Director I believe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you - I know when you say Kate Bush tribute act most people recoil in horror but we’ve had really great feedback both on social media and more importantly when we perform live.
