When half-faerie singer-songwriter Kate Bush returned to the stage in 2014 after a 35-year hiatus with her Before The Dawn live show, people went nuts. However, most of her fans—excited though they were—didn’t get to experience the multimedia dance and puppet show in any capacity, since it was only put up 22 times, and every one of those performances was at the Hammersmith Apollo in London. Two nights were apparently recorded, but the tapes must have been sent off westward on a ship toward the Undying Lands, because we mere mortals never got to see them. Now though, fans will finally be able to hear Before The Dawn, if not see it, because it’s being released as a live album, according to Bush’s website.
The 3-CD or 4-vinyl record collection is being released on Bush’s Fish People label and distributed by Rhino beginning on November 25. Here’s just a taste of all else that is to come.
