Needles & Grooves

I see where Björk got some of her influences from. This is fucking good.

I’m sorry FOR THE FIRST TIME???

Which album?

@kvetcha yeah, better late than never. Name any other of her contemporaries in that time period and I have heard them. Musical blind spot for me.

I saw some chatter about her music being used in Stranger Things and thought “maybe I should finally give her a listen.”

“Hounds of Love” right now, probably going to try out “The Dreaming” next

congratulations on the discovery! Welcome to the club!

Running Up That Hill is timeless perfection that appeals to every listener

Hounds of Love is unimpeachable, especially the Ninth Wave suite on side B.

The Dreaming is my personal favorite of hers, but her late-period work, Aerial and 50 Words for Snow, is also great.

She’s a true pioneer for female singer-songwriters taking a dominant hand in their own production.

So excited for you! She is really one of the greats. Anyone else love The Red Shoes?

I recently re-listened to Sensual World which I had never really connected with, but now I just love it!

I still remember how I listened to her albums for the first time in 1997, so amazing and great

@Sonicpharmacist I also never connected with The Sensual World, maybe I should give it another go.

@McGlam I only listened to The Red Shoes somewhat recently and thought it was fun! Production’s sadly a bit tinny. Wild that was her last album for 12 years.

Profile post prompted me to listen to Kate Bush for the first time, too. I agree -

Good timing. Was listening to her with my coffee this morning. She's wonderful.

now I’m listening to The Kick Inside

Another vote for The Dreaming as fave!

KB is a lot to take in, but she's def unique and a pure artist

Here is a good documentary you might like to watch. Many do not know that David Gilmour was influential in getting her signed.

Art pop queen.

The Dreaming is, and always will be, the one.

This performance changes lives
