4.12. Kate Bush World Wide Web (WWW) pages
The Ultimate Page To Go To First Before Any Other Page:
http://www.gryphon.com/gaffa
This is a group effort of more than a dozen people who worked for a
couple of months on creating the most complete Kate information
resource available. The page is going to grow continuously.
Stev0 [SB] provided the following reviews, since I still don't have WWW
access at home I cannot comment on these. Actually I do have WWW access
now, but I haven't found the time to visit them all yet.
The Very First Pages to Visit:
Ultimate Band List Kate Card
http://www.ubl.com/artists/001032.html
This is part of the excellent Ultimate Band List, which you should
definitely bookmark:
Ultimate Band List
http://www.ubl.com/
This is the 'mother of all musical web pages', by far the best general
source for music information on the web, because it lists almost all
other resources, including the above Kate Card.
Vickie's Kate Index
http://miso.wwa.com/~vickie/artists/kb.html
This is basically a HTMLified version of Stev0s full reviews, done by
Vickie Mapes in a very nice way.
Vickie's Ecto-artists index
http://miso.wwa.com/~vickie/artists/artists.html
This is Vickie's complete artists index, kind of a specilaized Ultimate
Band List for people with love-hounds like tastes.
Top-Notch Bookmark These And Come Back Often Pages:
Cloudbusting: Kate Bush in Her Own Words
http://scott.cogsci.ed.ac.uk/~rjc/hyper_cloud/cloudbusting.html
This is Ron Hill's "Cloudbusting" book (see also section 4.9)
in a great hypertext format. Also lots of other resources for
the Serious KateFan(tm).
David Benson's Kate Page:
http://www.intserv.com/~dobenson/kate/the_muse.html
Some of the BEST photos of Kate I've EVER seen. Now also features
the Kate Bush Web which works like a newsgroup with real people
posting (not bots).
The UWP music archives:
http://archive.uwp.edu/pub/music/artista/b/bush.kate
ftp://ftp.uwp.edu/pub/music/artists/b/bush.kate/
The first is just a webbified version of the latter, which is the ftp
version of the UWP music archives. You'll find everything here, though
only via FTP directories: lyrics, pictures, The Garden, Cloudbusting,
Moments of Pleasure, and the love-hounds archive. See also sections
6.1 and 6.2.
Really Great Must-See Pages:
The Garden:
http://www.ecto.org/garden/
IED's stunning E-text, "The Garden", in an HTML format done by woj.
Drawback: Still heavily under construction.
The Kate Bush Musical Extraveganza:
http://actor.cs.vt.edu/~wentz/index.html
This is done by Brian Wentz <wentz@vt.edu>, and mostly features
digitized songs by Kate (two from each album), and a digitized
interview(!) - which, at 10 Meg, is not for those with less-than
robust computers.
Lionheart
http://136.169.23.78/Lionheart.html
Run by Stuart Wilsdon. This site has lots of lyrics, lots of images,
and lots of other nice stuff.
Under the Ivy:
http://area51.upsu.plym.ac.uk/~garrick/kate_bush.html
Info about Homeground and gatherings of KateFans. Unfortunately, the
nice scans of Top Of The Pops had to be taken down. But the pictures
are not lost, here's their new home: [GT]
http://www.lysator.liu.se/~calle/KaTe/
They can also be found in a shockwave movie at No Dead Trees:
http://www.acy.digex.net/~dobenson/benson.html
A Tribute to Kate Bush
http://www.worldchat.com/public/foozer/foozer.htm
It's a pretty good site with everything you'd expect. Also is a
Reader's Digest version of The Garden. A good site for folks in a
rush. Rating: *** (three stars)
See These Pages When You Have the Time:
Experiment IV:
http://www.aitec.edu.au/ExpIV/
Nice layout of stuff that's going to come "Real Soon Now".
Drawback: Page is all excited about "Kate's soon-to-be released album,
'Never For Ever'."
Sony Music's "Official" Kate Bush Web Page
http://www.music.sony.com/Music/ArtistInfo/KateBush.html
This page mostly covers information in this FAQ and offers some nice
photos seen never before. Sony Music is the label Kate has been signed
with in America since The Sensual World. Unfortunately, there's not
much more than these three interesting GIFs.
Minor Kate Pages:
(they may be tiny, but they're mostly worth seeing)
Marcel's advertisement for his "Kate Covered" project:
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/marcel/katebush.htm
If you want to join the crowd doing cover versions of Kate songs for
Marcel's project, check this out!
The Illustrated Guide to Kate Bush:
http://www.icom.ca/cgpinc/kate.htm
This is about the book with the same name (see section 4.7).
The Lovehounds T-shirt Page:
http://www.chaco.com/~stev0/lhshirt.html
This shows Stev0 wearing a love-hounds T-shirt (see section 1.5).
The Red Shoes discography:
http://www.epcc.ed.ac.uk/~st/kt93.txt
This is Scott Telford's compilation of The Red Shoes related releases.
Obligitory Yahoo Link:
http://www.yahoo.com/Entertainment/Music/Artists/Bush__Kate/
New And Therefore Not Yet Rated By Stev0 Pages:
The Kate Bush VRML site (The Worlds of Kate Bush):
http://fly.hiwaay.net/~cbullard/index.htm
You need a Netscape browser with a Live3D plug in for these four
virtual reality worlds there. These pages need a while to load over
the net, because they're quite big. [LB]
The Irgendwo In Der Tiefe German Kate Bush Club Pages:
http://itsnova.mach.uni-karlsruhe.de/~meiswink/katebush.htm
This is the site of the German Kate Bush Club Irgendwo In Der Tiefe.
There are some articles of the club's fanzine there, as well as some
nice pictures (not photos but drawings) of Kate. Drawback: right now
this is a German-language-only site, though an English translation is
promised.
The Kate Bush Shocked Concerts
http://www.intserv.com/~dobenson/kate_shocked_concert.html
Shockwave movies done by David Benson.
The Laser File
http://www.wessex.demon.co.uk/kate
LaserDisc videography of Kate, featuring all LaserDiscs by Kate from
all countries, including pictures of quite a few of them. Done by
Alec Baker <alec@wessex.demon.co.uk>
