Hi,

I already transcribed and translated this piece on 14 November, but somehow
it did not arrive in love-hounds though I did send it. Anyhow here it is.

Bye,

Uli

The German magazine 'Bunte' has a short article about The Red Shoes.
It's in issue 45, November 4th 1993, page 60. It is accompagnied by the
picture with Kate dressed in black, sitting on the white box and wearing
the red shoes. First the German original, then the translation:

KATE BUSH: RED SHOES
Statt Tournee: Kate Bush verfilmt ihre CD

[Bildinschrift:]
Der Ballettfilm "Die roten Schuhe" inspirierte Kate Bush zu "The Red Shoes":
Titel ihrer neuen CD und eines Musikfilms.

Sie ist mal Hexe, mal singende Fee und immer die grosse Unsichtbare: Kein
anderer Star scheut das Rampenlicht wie Kate Bush (35, "Babooshka",
"Running Up that Hill"). Seit 15 Jahren sammelt sie Goldene Schallplatten.
Aber nur ein einziges Mal (1979) ging sie auf Tournee. Jedes weitere
Konzert lehnte die Klang-Perfektionistin strikt ab. Zum Erscheinen ihres
sechsten Albums "The Red Shoes" (EMI, Gastmusiker: Eric Clapton, Prince,
Nigel Kennedy) will die Englaenderin Fans ueber entgangene Live-Erlebnisse
hinwegtroesten: Sechs ihrer neuen Songs verfilmte sie nach dem Vorbild der
"Magical Mystery Tour" der Beatles. Am 16.11. hat das 40-Minuten-Werk in
London Premiere.

KATE BUSH: RED SHOES
Instead of a tour: Kate Bush makes a film of her CD

[picture inscription:]
The ballett film "The Red Shoes" inspired Kate Bush to "The Red Shoes":
Titel of her new CD and of a music film. [Sic: The Line, The Cross, and
The Curve]

Sometimes she's a witch, sometimes a singing fairy, and always the great
invisible: No other star shys away from the limelight as Kate Bush (35,
"Babooshka", "Running Up That Hill"). Since 15 years she collects Golden
Records. But only once (1979) she went on tour. The sound perfectionist
strictly turned down every other concert. With the appearance of her
sixth [SIC!!!] album "The Red Shoes" (EMI, guest musicians: Eric Clapton,
Prince, Nigel Kennedy) the English woman wants to comfort fans for missed
live experiences: she made six of her new songs into a movie after the
example of the "Magical Mystery Tour" from the Beatles. On November 16
[sic?] the 40 minutes opus will premiere in London.
