Cloudbusting -- Kate Bush
In Her Own Words
Cloudbusting -- Kate Bush
In Her Own Words
This in no way should be considered a complete or recommended list of Kate Bush sources. What is listed here is sources that I have access to, and well as the sources I need, when known. Non-interview articles (reviews, etc) are not included. For a more complete list of Kate sources see back issues of Homeground fanzine.
Where the interviews have also been reprinted in fanzines, books, or bootlegs, I have noted this after the name of the interview. Sometimes they don't give the original date and source, so I have included an Unknown section for articles where I don't know the original sources. Any further information would be appreciated.
Sources are followed by the date of the source, then the name of the interviewer, then the name of the person who transcribed the source into computer form, then the name of any fan magazine or book where the article is reprinted. The most common transcribers are given abbreviations, IED for Andrew Marvick and RH for Ronald Hill.
Why aren't there lots of great Kate Bush books? Since, as far as I know, Kate has never been interviewed for a book, all of the quotes from these books are originally from other sources, and, where known, have been marked as such.
KATE BUSH COMPLETE - Book containing the sheet music to all of Kate's songs up to 1986. Also contains separate lyrics, a great chronology, many photos, and a discography. Although it doesn't contain any interviews with Kate, it was invaluable to creating this document and is highly recommended, especially if you don't have access to all of Kate's lyrics.
SH - Secret History of Kate Bush (And The Strange Art Of Pop) - 1983. Intellectual (as opposed to intelligent) book about Kate's family history, story, and fans. For someone who rambles on about fan obsession he seems pretty obsessed himself - "So I turn Kate's glossy pages, crackling and soapy to the touch, paper which seems limp and heavy and wet with realism, as if her images were oozing and perspiring into my fascinated inspection" YEEEETCH!!!!
TWS - Kate Bush - The Whole Story (1988). Despite appearances, not a sanctioned book, and certainly not the whole story. Positive, but contains numerous factual and publishing errors. For "The Whole Story" on this book, see HOMEGROUND numbers 33 and 34.
AVD - Kate Bush - A Visual Documentary (1988). Perhaps the best liked, non-official book.
LOVE - Kate Bush - With Love (1988). Reprints of Kate-related articles, interviews, and reviews, some positive, some negative. Interesting mainly to see how the music press has reacted to Kate over the years.
Kate has fan magazines all over the world. This is only a list of the fanzines I have access to and have used for source material.
I only have originals of issues 2,5,8,11,13,16,17,18,23 so if you have any originals you don't need, let me know! The source of all these in computer form was The Garden, so if you have Cloudbusting you have all the direct quotes from Kate from the Kate Bush Club. However, the originals have many features which make them very worthwhile to have, including those GREAT pictures (wooo....).
The KBC and Homeground together sponsored the 1990 Kate Bush Convention on November 17, 1990. The questions were from the audience members and the transcription is from Andrew Marvick.
This is a list of all the KBCs as of April 1991. This list first appeared in Cariad Kate.

THE GARDEN - This is Andrew Marvick and Co's book of reprinted and original articles. The original articles are included with most versions of Cloudbusting and the reprints of interviews were the source files of most of the interviews included here.
LOVE-HOUNDS - Love-Hounds is the international Kate Bush computer forum. Anyone interested in subscribing must have access to Internet, Bitnet, UUCP, CSNET or Janet and should send electronic mail to "LOVE- HOUNDS-REQUEST@EDDIE.MIT.EDU". Love Hounds is also available on the Usenet Netnews electronic bulletin board system as "rec.music.gaffa."
Love-Hounds is the source of a rather unique interview conducted by the founder of Love-Hounds, Doug Allen, in 1985. The views expressed by Doug are not necessarily those of _Love-Hounds_ as a group. Doug has asked that a disclaimer be added, explaining that at the time of the interview he was "suffering from a severe hormonal imbalance, but that he's better now." Re-edited by Andrew Marvick.
THE BIG SKY BBS - This is a board dedicated mainly to Kate. It is run by Richard Caldwell and the number is 1-614-864-1198. Some versions of Cloudbusting will be available here.
GENIE - Commercial service with Kate section, which is refered to as KTGenie by it's members. The KTGenie section is in the Music BB, category 11 (ROCK - Album Rock And More), topic 2. To get there type "*entertain", then "set 11", then "rea 2 all"
Some versions of Cloudbusting are available in the Genie music library. To get to the music file library type M135;3.
n Articles reprinted in fanzines, bootlegs, or books, without the original source credited. Some of these interviews are no doubt from the list of "needed" interviews below. Any further information is appreciated.
John Shearlaw interview. C.1980. Trans. by RH. Reprinted in LOVE.
Mike Nicolls interview. Fall 1981?, trans. by IED. Reprinted in LOVE. Listed in THE GARDEN as Fall 1981, but probably the Record Mirror. Sept. 6, '80, by Mike Nicolls as there is a listing in HOMEGROUNDS bibliography under the same name.

Hounds of Love interview. C.1985. By unknown, reprinted in SB Vol 1. No. 1.
The Kate Connection. C. 1983, by Abbey Sheffield, trans. by RH from BREAKTHOUGH 5. It was published without a source credit, so it might be original to Breakthrough or might not.
Following are lists of interviews that I do not have access to. Some of these are no doubt the same as the "unknown" interviews list above. Any help in obtaining these interviews, or more information, would be appreciated!
------------------------ THIS LIST IS SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED COMPLETE, ESPECIALLY BEFORE 1984. Use this list if you are looking for Kate Bush articles, like in a library, use the "have" list if you are looking through Kate Bush articles. It is based on the Medialog in Homeground (which I only have back to 1983) as well as the bibliography, which only goes up to 1983.

Experiment IV press release. Mentioned in Homeground 43.
I am attempting to make Cloudbusting available in as many different computer versions as possible. I would appreciate it if you could get it through the Love-Hounds or other networks, and if you could spread it around as much as possible so that I don't have to make copies.
[NOT ALL OF THESE VERSIONS ARE ACTUALLY DONE YET]
PRINTED - I regret that I cannot normally make printed copies, due to the size and mailing expenses. Now is the time to buddy up to that computer nerd and have him print out one of the computer versions.
Rather than using a standard three ring binder, you may want to consider using a three-ring binder from a photo album. These are normally quite nicer. I use one from Price Club (item #4923) and it works out nicely. Also photocopies (hopefully color) and other photos in between the pages help break up the text and make it look more like a "real" book.
TEX - A version for the TEX program may become available on Love- Hounds.
AMIGA - This is the main version as it is the computer I have. It features fully integrated sound and pictures. All files are compressed, but can be used without manually un-compressing them, and can be easily un-compressed to print nicely or to transfer to another format.
TEXT - Just the text files, and separate GIF files. Takes up more disks since these are not compressed, but can be easily transferred to any computer. If you have the AMIGA version, you can create just the text. If you have the IBM version, you can create this simply be de- compressing the files.
WORDPERFECT 4.2 - The master files, includes underlining, which the text versions doesn't. It is available on Love-Hounds in IBM WORDPERFECT 4.2 format, which loads right into IBM WORDPERFECT 4.2, 5.0, 5.1, and any later versions. It can also be loaded into the Amiga and presumably other computer versions using the IMPORT command (CTRL- F5)
POSTSCRIPT - A postscript version may become available on Love- Hounds.
IBM - I may not ever make this version. This would be set up for use on two or three 3 inch 720k disks, but can be easily copied to larger storage drives or can fairly easily be copied down to 5 inch 360k disks. Includes integrated text, pictures, and sampled sound on ANY IBM compatible.
MAC - I may not end up making this version. This version will either consist of separate text, picture, and sound files, or an integrated version using HYPERCARD 2.0. I can run and create MAC programs on my Amiga, but I don't have a disk drive so I cannot make copies of them, except through the modem.
ATARI ST - Use the text version or WORDPERFECT version.
OTHER COMPUTERS - Suggest you download the TEXT version, or WORDPERFECT version, if your computer has Wordperfect.
I can be reached on Love-Hounds or at the address below. If you have any sources that you feel should be included you can send me a copy or just the individual quote and source and where you think it should go. Of course, if you already have them in computer form, that is preferred. Since this is being distributed mainly in computer form, there is no reason why there shouldn't be new editions when I get new quotes or to fix mistakes. I am sure there are many mistakes so please be kind to them. If you REALLY like this please DON'T be compelled to send money (though I accept gifts!) as I don't really want to profit off this as these are really Kate's words.

Cloudbusting was made possible, or at least much easier, by many people who contributed generously:
And all the Love-Hounds and WarmRoomers!!!!
Thanks also to all the people who originally typed in the interviews, see above.
The pictures were all designed by Ron Hill using photos digitized by either Ron Hill and Don Provancer (RH + DP), Ron Hill using Charlie Distefino's equipment (RH), by Ken Saint John (KS), or by WOJ. The photos are usually taken by John Carter Bush, unless noted otherwise.
The pictures are all 640x400 16 color GIF files. The album cover pictures are divided into three groups, the "original" covers (filenames begin with "O"), the "alternative" covers (featuring alternative shots, filenames begin with "A"), and the "full" covers (unedited cover shots, filenames begin with "F").
To view these GIFs you will need a program for your type of computer. Public domain picture file viewers include CSHOW and PICEM for the IBM, TURBOGIF and HAMGIF for the Amiga, and Giffer or QuickGif for the Macintosh.
