Overview
Following the disappointing sales of Kate Bush's fourth album, The Dreaming in 1982, she told the press, I finished my last album, did the promotion, then found myself in a kind of limbo. In the summer of 1983, she built her own 48-track studio in the grounds of her family home, which she could use at any time she liked, without being concerned about the cost Kate Bush began recording demos for Hounds of Love in January 1984. After five months, she began overdubbing and mixing the album in a process that took a year. The album was produced as two suites - side one being Hounds of Love and side two a seven-track concept piece, The Ninth Wave. The Hounds Of Love remains not just a masterpiece for the cognoscenti, but a truly classic album, one of the finest of the decade, and for many, among the best of all time. This documentary film puts the record under the microscope.
