There would have been little extras on the early albums but would have been great on the latter. Also, Walk Straight Down the Middle on my copy of The Sensual World is missing the remaster, but is included in Other Sides.Ī shame that Kate didn’t use the Pet Shop Boys approach and issue 2 CD albums with the second containing the extras. I was surprised when The Big Sky came on as it is different to the version on the 1997 EMI 100th anniversary, and I don’t think as good edition and is the version on The Whole Story (I have given my Bush CDs to a friend but will keep the 1997 Hounds of Love CD.
A week last Sunday I played The Kick Inside through The Red Shoes and what a collection of work. I bought Other Sides from HMV for superb £20 and will give Remasters 2 a miss. I then thought to myself that Aerial, Director’s Cut, 50 Words for Snow and especially Before the Dawn are still not that old and the earlier seven albums benefitted more from being remastered. I was close to forking out when I read about Other Sides from this very boutique (bit of Python there). I bought the Remasters volume 1 from HMV the day it came out but decided to wait to buy Remasters 2 until the price came down which it never seemed too. The Hounds of Love is the masterwork, but The Kick Inside is my favourite. I’ve been a fan of Kate Bush since I heard Wuthering Heights as a new single back in 1978 as a 15-year-old and have bought all her albums since. Wuthering Heights (Remix / New Vocal from ‘The Whole Story’).One Last Look Around The House Before We Go.Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God) 2012 Remix.Working on getting Amazon Australia on the widget, for now, here’s the link The Other Sides will be released as a 4CD set on 8 March 2019.

This is the first time this video has officially been released since its original TV broadcast. Tragically, he died just before we made the video so he wasn’t able to be there with us but you’ll see his guitar was placed on an empty chair to show he was there in spirit. He was a truly special musician and a very dear friend. That meant I also had the chance to direct the video which I loved doing – making it a performance video, shot on black and white film, featuring all the musicians and… the Moon!Īlan Murphy played guitars on the track. It meant a great deal to me that they chose it to be the first single release from the album. I wanted to make it different from the original and thought it could be fun to turn it into a reggae version. They gave me complete creative control and although it was a bit daunting to be let loose on one of my favourite tracks ever, it was really exciting. To my delight they asked me to be involved and I chose Rocket Man.
Years later in 1989, Elton and Bernie Taupin were putting together an album called Two Rooms, which was a collection of cover versions of their songs, each featuring a different singer. Most artists in the mid seventies played guitar but Elton played piano and I dreamed of being able to play like him.
I couldn’t stop playing it – I loved it so much. “ I remember buying this when it came out as a single by Elton John. Speaking about ‘Rocket Man’ (which is track one on ‘covers’ disc In Others’ Words) Kate today issued the following statement: Unlike Bowie’s ‘Re:Call’ compilations there was never any mention of this being exclusive to the box set, so I guess, that’s fair enough! Kate Bush will release her The Other Sides B-side compilation as a standalone 4CD set and has also officially made available the video for her 1991 cover of Elton John‘s Rocket Man and spoken about the making of the song and the video.Īlthough this four-disc package was available by itself on vinyl – as Remastered in Vinyl IV – to acquire this excellent array of B-sides and 12-inch mixes on CD meant buying the second of the two CD boxes which also includes Aerial, Director’s Cut, 50 Words For Snow and Before The Dawn. Not any more, as in March a 4CD set of The Other Sides will be available for less than £20.
