OK, after reading this group for a bit I went and got my first Kate album - The Hounds of Love. Wow, I am impressed. Or perhaps enchanted is a better word. After much listening and musing I've got a couple of questions about the album (if these are elementary, pardon me, I know so little...(if everyone knows, then email replies, don't bother posting.)) 1) Why are Werner Herzog and Terry Gilliam given thanks in the album's credits? 2) Are any of the uncredited male voices Peter Gabriel's? For that matter, it struck me that both HoL and PG III album are similar in that neither seems to have any high hats/cymbals in the percussion. 3) Anyone else notice a strong similarity in sound and technique between 'Waking the Witch' (truly a striking song) and the stuff on the Eno/Byrne album 'My Life in the Bush of Ghosts' (particularly the rather frightening 'Jezebel Spirit')?
