> "The Big Sky"? Are you sure you don't mean "Suspended in > Gaffa"? You're completely right, VanceMan, IED's memory misled him again. By the way, IED also mixed up the transcription method of the string parts of "Hounds of Love" (Jonathan Williams's cellos), which Kate notated herself, with that for the sextet's arrangement on "Cloudbusting", about which Del wrote, in KBCN 17 (December 1985, p. 6): "The score was written out from Kate's original Fairlight part and follows it almost exactly except for some small bits which, although right musically, do not sound right played on the real instrument." Which explains where IED was remembering that procedure as one with which we knew Kate was familiar. Thanks for the clarification. -- Andrew Marvick (IED) S R I
