| | Kate Bush Aerial CD Kate Bush Discography of CDs
(51 Customer Reviews)
A double-disc set that encompasses a collection of songs about domesticity (the first disc, A SEA OF HONEY) and a conceptual suite that details the passing of a day (the second disc, A SKY OF HONEY), AERIAL is ambitious, lovely, intensely personal, ... Full Descriptionand marked by Bush's unique approach to music-making. The fierce edginess of THE DREAMING-era Bush is replaced by deep meditations on family life ("Bertie"), familiar chores ("Mrs. Bartolozzi"), and the cycles of time ("Sunset"). Bush's gentle singer/songwriter mode is combined with jazz, rock, classical, electronica, and other elements for a musical experience that sustains her reputation as one our most adventurous and distinctive artists.
Since the 1980s Kate Bush has shouldered the unhappy burden of having to live up to her own brilliance: albums like THE DREAMING and HOUNDS OF LOVE set a high watermark for shimmering, adventurous, off-kilter pop. In the 12 years that transpired between the releases of 1993's THE RED SHOES and 2005's AERIAL, expectations ran high that Bush had something monumental in store. AERIAL does not necessarily meet those expectations, but that is not to imply that it's a lackluster release either.

Rolling Stone (No. 987, p.130) - 4 out of 5 stars - "...Given Bush's protracted absence, the subtlety of her eighth studio offering seems particularly ballsy...." Mojo (Publisher) (p.96) - 5 stars out of 5 - "Kate Bush is the greatest living British artist in song and this is her masterpiece....It's all exquisitely sung, played and judged....And so few artists award themselves the freedom to roam around their imagination the way Kate Bush does." Mojo (Publisher) (p.58) - Ranked #3 in Mojo's "The 50 Best Albums Of 2005" - "[D]aring conceits, emotional nudism and neo-classical sonics culminated in a mood-altering crypto-Balearic trance-athon." Mojo (Publisher) (p.61) - Ranked #45 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "[A] filmic vision rendered in sound that demanded the listener's undivided attention..."

$18.99 A talented and passionate musician, Flynn emigrates to America to fulfill his dreams of making it in the music business and co-founds a band in Boston, The Cliffs of Dooneen. Immediately, in a town of thousands of bands, "The Cliffs" win several high profile awards at the Boston Music Awards while selling out almost every venue in town. Next comes a major label record deal, with Critique/BMG and the release of their debut recording "The Dog Went East and God Went West". The first single, "Through an Open Window", was an immediate hit at radio, landing in the Top 10 of Billboardis Modern Rock charts. Next, Flynn is seen constantly in the press, on MTV and on stages across the country. While touring America, he hears his bands' music on the radio nationwide.. his dream is fulfilled... or so it would seem.As our true "Behind the Music" story continues, there is the proverbial twist... It has nothing to do with drugs, sex or lawsuits, but rather a life altering accident that very nearly left Flynn paralyzed for life. The nightmare involved falling 35 feet from a ladder at his house in Boston. It caused one of his center vertebrae to burst leaving two fragments of bone pushing in on his spinal chord. Flynn spent 10 hours in surgery followed by weeks in the hospital. Then there were months of struggling to regain movement in his arms and hands and his ability to walk again. Always a fighter, Flynn went on a maniacal journey to rehabilitate his body and regain his ability to make music again. With his back shattered and his future uncertain, Flynn's musical dreams came together stronger and he started his amazing recovery back into the music world. With daily rehabilitation and constant pain still racking his body he finished up his first solo album "On your Way".Flynn released his debut CD "On Your Way" in the Fall of 2001, exactly 2 years from the date of the accident that changed his life forever. Only six months later, this release wins Flynn a prestigious Boston Music Award as the "Outstanding Debut Album of the Year". This was quite a feat in Boston, one of the most highly competitive American music scenes. The music editor of the Boston Globe has gone so far as to state, "One of Boston's best upcoming singer/songwriter, rockers. The recent Boston Music Award winner Flynn is certainly deserving of that accolade. Flynn sounds like he is ready to go national."The fall of 2002 saw Flynn's music as a major part of the live-action theatrical debut of Spider-Man Live! This Broadway spectacular graced the stages of 45+ U.S. cities. Flynn was asked by the Ideal Entertainment producers to write three songs for the production. These songs became the backbone of this blockbuster stage show and were featured prominently in the performance, the television and radio ads and a compact disc of the Spider-Man Live music. There were ten shows a week in most major American markets with venues ranging from New York's Radio City Music Hall to the Wang Center in Boston to The Kodak Theater in Los Angeles.Flynn's second release "Let the Show Begin" came out on Black Wolf Records, released in early 2003. The Boston Globe named this release as "One of the top 16 records to listen for" in a high ...
