IED cannot praise highly enough the latest issue of Homeground (No. 54, Winter '94). Congratulations to Peter FitzGerald-Morris, and to Krys and Dave, for giving us a new level of excellence to appreciate and aspire to. Not only does this issue contain several Kate Bush news bits that have not appeared in Love-Hounds (no mean feat that, in itself!), but there is an always interesting (though by no means infallible!) review of The Red Shoes album by rec.music.gaffa's founder |>oug /\lan, and an absolutely fascinating and beautifully written article from our own KLN (Karen Newcombe) which offers inspired insight into symbolism in "Under the Ivy". As if that weren't enough, there are also several photographs of Kate Bush that have never (to IED's knowledge) appeared anywhere before. Thanks, Peter, for your continuing, invaluable contribution. >No one (except Kate, as far as I know - [SB]) >knows who anyone else is in this song, especially "George the >Wipe". Actually, IED believes that "Teddy" has been identified as the late John Barratt, assistant engineer at Abbey Road Studios during the recording sessions for "Never For Ever". Kate once revealed his nickname to be Teddy. Also, an excellent theory about the meaning of "George the Wipe" was offered in Love-Hounds several months back. Anyone remember, and can any UK member offer further insight into this reference? -- Andrew Marvick (IED)
