Worth The Wait!!!

12 Years since her last album "The Red Shoes" was released Kate Bush's long awaited new double CD titled "Aerial" came out this week. To say I've been really excited about this forthcoming album would be an understatement, so it was more than great to finally get my hands on a copy when it hit the stores.
For me there's only 2 Artists around these days that I would buy an album from without at least having a listen to first but when it comes to Kate I know for sure that I'll get something truly amazing to listen to and she certainly does not disappoint with Aerial.

I know everyone else out there at the moment is obsessing over Madonna's new album but if your after something original with substance then I strongly recommend Aerial to you. In a market that's saturated in disposable Artists wallowing in thoughtless lyrics and mediocre production values this Album as like all of Kate Bush's work is a sweet breathe of fresh air that stands tall above the current woeful state of the music industry.

I have to mention my favorite track off the Album titled "Sunset" on the second CD "a sky of Honey" a heart breakingly sublime work of art that gives me goosebumps everytime and is worth buying the whole CD set for alone.


Who knows who wrote that song of Summer
That blackbirds sing at dusk
This is a song of colour

Where sands sing in crimson, red and rust
Then climb into bed and turn into dust

Every sleepy light
Must say goodbye
To the day before it dies
In a sea of honey
A sky of honey

Keep us close to your heart
So if the skies turn dark
We may live on in
Comets and stars

Oh Sing of summer and a sunset
And sing for us, so that we may remember

The day writes the words right across the sky
They go all the way up to the top of the night.

Stevie's Good Old Days.......

I love the sound of the "confessions of a male coke whore" article!!

Just When I thought It Couldn't Get Any Better!!...

Stevie Nicks, one of the most enduring, influential and loved female artists in rock’n’roll history, is bringing her solo concert tour ‘Gold Dust’ to Australia in February next year.
Nicks and her red-hot nine-piece band led by guitar virtuoso Waddy Watchel will perform her greatest hits from Fleetwood Mac and her incredible solo career.
The first is at Rod Laver Arena where Nicks will be accompanied by the wonderful Melbourne Symphony Orchestra in a magical night to be filmed for a DVD. The marriage of Nicks’ songs with full orchestral backing promises to be an incredible experience.

So It's fair to say that I pretty much creamed my pants when I found about the upcoming Tour, I was lucky enough to see Fleetwood Mac live when they were here last March and being right at the front of the stage in arms length at Stevie's feet while she sang some of my favourite Mac songs go up there with my best memories and experiences so far.
It's going to be so amazing to hear her perform her Solo work this time around as well and I'm already in planning for the trip down to Melbourne to witness Stevie's concert with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra behind her.

I know it's a long shot but Stevie is one woman that I would REALLY love to meet so if anyone know's how I can get into any backstage meet and greet opportunites PLEASE let me know.
