KATE BUSH: JUST THE FACTS

Desert Island Dics

Although Kate Bush has (to date) never appeared on the famous BBC radio program, in 1990 the British music magazine Q asked her to select recordings she would choose to bring on a journey to a desert island. Her choices were: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and Magical Mystery Tour by the Beatles, My Life In the Bush Of Ghosts by David Byrne and Brian Eno, the Nigel Kennedy recording of Vivaldi's The Four Seasons, the song Strati Angelaki by The Trio Bulgarka, Donal Lunny's album Donal Lunny, Eberhard Weber's album Fluid Rustle ("a lot of fond memories"), Billie Holiday's rendition of I Love You Porgie ("the singer of singers. Lindsay Kemp used to use this one in a show of his, and the combination of her singing and his theatre was terrific"), and Comfortably Numb from The Wall by Pink Floyd.
