sparklrtrailrheaven 9,051 Posted June 14, 2016 @@National Anthem do you have her demos and home recordings? The '73 and '76 demos are like Kate's version of Sirens-- stripped down piano (in this case) tracks that are simple, but they all have really great concepts and stories, plus there's some really interesting early versions of later songs. (btw, if anyone can direct me to hq versions of the tracks NA is looking for too, I'd be much obliged-- "Passing Through Air" especially ) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

delreyfreak 5,341 Posted November 19, 2016 Which albums of hers are your fav?? I'm trying to get into her work but don't really know where to start. I have downloads of all of her albums but don't know what her best work is. So far I am love with some of her Hounds of Love songs (I've heard that's one of her most popular albums?). Could anybody help me as to where I should go from there? Thank you in advance 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could anybody help me as to where I should go from there? Thank you in advance The Dreaming is probably my favorite early album, although the early ones are all really dynamic and you can't lose by just going in chrono order. Also her discog is not that large. The second side of Aerial (Sky of Honey? one big track with different song segments) is probably the easiest way to get into her more adventurous side that still remains poppish (maybe even a little more poppish than that side of Hounds of Love with the connected songs). 50 words of Snow has some bloat on some songs but a lot of highlights too (among angels, snowed in at Wheeler St....the duet with Elton John, Misty). That's probably her most challenging album, and it's pretty clear she wasn't aiming for a comeback with it. And for those that don't think Honeymoon is a pop album, they should compare it to FWFS (it's just about as long as HM too). 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's what I did, and it was the first album that got me hooked! However, if you're already enjoying some of HoL, I'd say also try The Dreaming. Both have pop moments but also get really experimental and deep 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I will go in chronological order, so I can see how she progresses from each album to the next. I am quite excited to get more into her music - I've heard such great things about her and from what I've heard so far, I think she could end up being one of my favorite artists, for sure! Thanks so so much, I will definitely re-read all of your descriptions before listening to each release just to get a mental vibe of what I'm about to be listening to 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
