Uli,

    The great news is that the two Kate Bush biographies (provided by 
Ominbus Press) are now widely available.  I believe any Tower store that 
sells books should either have them on hand or can special order them for 
you.  I was just in the Tower store in Los Angeles on Sunset Blvd. (the 
famous one) and it had the Japanese Kate Bush box set, too, but for 
$179.99, about the same price that CDNow is selling it (http://cdnow.com) 
  What's great about the Japanese set is that it contains lyrics to the 
B-sides (I have that set a few years now, and I just gave Bryan Dungary 
some lyrics corrections to his "complete lyrics."  The lyrics in TWW ARE 
official, noted to be published by Kate Bush, inc.  With the exception of 
"Lord of the Reedy River" under Donovan.  The lyrics for "Reedy 
River" printed there are different from what Kate sings.)  Also, while 
I'm here, I hope everyone knows that you can order the Kate Bush Home 
Demos CD through CDNow, as well (import from Italy.)  Just got mine two 
days ago, and glad to finally hear the remaining demos I haven't heard to 
this point!  The selection available from CDNow is tremendous and takes 
my breath away!  They offer several concert CD's, official and unofficial 
(imports from different countries).  Of course, the problem is, (as we 
all know) they're almost all from the same time period with the same 
songs.  <pout>  When I'm ready, I'll stick with good sound quality and go 
for Hammersmith Odeon.
