Subject: *** Compilation Bootleg List ****
COMPILATION BOOTLEGS by Andrew Marvick (IED), Evan Walsh, and Ron Hill This is a compilation of various messages from Love-Hounds, done by Ron Hill who takes responsibilty for any errors that may have occured during editing. These bootlegs contain compilations of material officially released. This makes the material more ethically dubious and illegal then the other boots, which normally contain material not available on official releases. "Passing Through Air" (the LP, NOT to be confused with the CD of the same name, which is entirely different), is a two-record set and includes a lot of Kate's b-sides and re-mixes, plus the video mix of "Cloudbusting", and the edit of "Hounds of Love" which Kate used for the lip-synch performance of the song for the 1986 BPIs -- misidentified in the album listing as a "live" version. Also misidentified is the "Meteorological Mix" of "The Big Sky" as "The Astrological Mix"; a mistake not apparently motivated by bootlegger's caution, since all the other tracks are clearly identified as the official releases they once were. There is only one piece of truly valuable new music on this two-record set (or new to IED, anyway): the last track on the album is the live version of "Let It Be" from about 1980/81, which Kate performed with Steve Harley and Peter Gabriel, and which appeared on a Japanese Fan Club flexi-disc. However, the present recording is twice the length of the "official" version, fading out much nearer to the end of the performance. The original source for this performance is the same cheap in-audience tape which was used by the KBC for their flexi-disc. The cover has a close-up of the photo used for the U.S. Hounds of Love LP poster (Kate kneeling with a Turkish fez on her head). Track Listing: Side 1 Cloudbusting (Video Mix) Hounds of Love (Live BPI awards show) Experiment IV (Extended Mix) Hansome Cabin Boy My Lagan Love Side 2 Burning Bridge Not This Time Big Sky (Astrological Mix) [Sic] Under The Ivy Side 3 The Wedding List (Live) Running Up That Hill (Intrumental) Hounds Of Love (Alt Mix) The Empty Bullring Dreamtime Side 4 Cloudbusting (The Organon Mix) Passing Through Air Lord Of The Reedy River Warm And Soothing Let It Be (Bill Duffield Benifit) _Backsides_ is available in LP and CD format. Track listing: SIDE 1 :December Will Be Magic Again Warm and Soothing Ran Tan Waltz (ouch!!!) Full House The Empty Bullring SIDE 2 :Burning Bridge Not This Time The Handsome Cabin Boy Under The Ivy The Big Sky (Metorological Mix) ^ [Their spelling] The only interesting thing is the record it was pressed on top of. 'Maria Stanmore Sings' . After The Big Sky you can hear the end of the song which was previously on that side ('Patrick Moores Dream'). You can hear something anyway - I'm just presuming. It's on Pink Frost Records (Maria Stanmore Sings, that is). There is no identification of the bootlegger or the country of origin. The only inscription on the runout groove is on side 1: 'MS 1 A 1J' and a '3' and on side 2: 'MS 1B J' and a '2' but these were probably on the original record. It has a white paper insleeve and a white outersleeve with a quite small picture of KaTe at a piano by a window, very probably East Wickham Farm, wearing flip-flops and a waistcoat and slacks, looking at the camera. The picture is similar to one in (I think) Vermorel's 'Princess ...' book but the shot is from a different angle (right angles to her) and not blurred. I have never seen it before. On the outer sleeve the only words are 'Kate Bush', 'Back Sides' and the track listing. The sound quality is normal commercial LP quality. _The_Can_ (1991) is a LP compilation of Kate's session work with other artists and rare versions of other songs. It comes with a T-shirt (some versions), sticker, and bootlet. Side 1 December Will Be Magic Again (It's Christmas Version) Be Kind To My Mistakes (Soundtrack Version) Sing Children Sing (Leslie Duncan Single) You (The Game Part II) (Roy Harper) Flowers (Zaine Griff) Side 2 Sister And Brother (Midge Ure) Once (Roy Harper) The Seer (Big Country) UUCP: {hplabs!hp-sdd ucsd nosc}!crash!pnet01!rhill ARPA: crash!pnet01!rhill@nosc.mil INET: rhill@pnet01.cts.com
