Wow, a comment! I was a little disheartened by the lack of feedback since I started writing, so this is a nice little morale booster

Thanks!

I've tended to like her earlier work the most.

Howard the Duck · 03-10-2011, 08:33 AM

I've only heard Hounds of Love, Aerial and The Dreaming plus the singles

will be torrenting the rest of her discography soon

The Dreaming is my fave of the lot and Hounds even if poppy, does have the engaging The Ninth Wave

I'm not sure she has been much appreciated in some places like America.

Best albums for me are The Kick Inside, The Dreaming and Hounds of Love. Good tracks on other albums too of course.

Great thread. I love The Dreaming best although I have massive affection for The Sensual World.

I've gone off The Dreaming a bit, some great songs but others that I like less. The Kick Inside is definitely my favourite now.

The Dreaming is an amazing album, on par with Peter Gabriel's Security in terms of weirdness.

Hounds Of Love was her commercial breakthrough, but it also has an experimental vibe.

The Kick Inside and Aerial are two albums that I can play over and over again, though. Especially The Kick Inside. That debut album is highly underrated.

Weirdness doesn't always mean consistent greatness though.

Howard the Duck · 08-15-2011, 08:09 PM

and PG4 is more world music than "weirdness"

Her debut was her commercial breakthrough. Kate was never more popular than during the late 70s after the release of her debut album.
