| "Wuthering Heights" (Rockflix version)
|
This is the earliest
record of Kate Bush on video. A promotional film made in February 1978
(perhaps even earlier), it features Kate alone on a heath (representing
the Yorkshire moors, presumably), lip-synching to the record while
dancing and miming. She wears a red dress, and looks extremely young.
This clip was the one which most European nations saw as support for
the single in 1978, but in England a later version directed by Keith
MacMillan (see entry below) was preferred. It is also the Rockflix
video which was later parodied by Faith Brown, to Kate's own delight.

sung live with live backing from the KT Bush Band, on the
February 9, 1978 edition of Bio's Bahnhof, after its host Dr. Alfred
Biolek. To perform this song, and entry number 3 which immediately
followed it, Kate tried valiantly to convey the gist of her
choreography despite the necessity of holding on to a microphone with
one hand throughout. This was a common handicap to Kate's early
television performances, and knowing what her preferred style of
presentation is, we can now see how restricting the handheld microphone
was for her. Kate wore a red dress and very "seventies" high-heeled
shoes. The KT Bush Band all wore white. A large in-studio audience is
seen in the clip. This is because the programme was taped in a large
disused railroad station.

| Wuthering Heights
|
sung live on the German TV programme Bio's
Bahnhof, February 9, 1978. Kate sang this track live, but to a
pre-recorded backing track. At the conclusion of the performance of
entry number 2, a large curtain/backdrop was unfurled behind Kate,
obscuring the band. The design on the curtain, apparently chosen by the
German television production's crew, featured a picture of their notion
of a Yorkshire moor setting: an erupting volcano! At the conclusion of
this song Kate was greeted onstage by the host, Dr. Alfred Biolek, who
presented Kate with flowers, and waxed fulsomely (and in
extraordinarily patronizing German mixed with pigeon-English) about her
talent and her inability to speak German to the audience. Kate as usual
made a far better impression than her condescending host.

the "moors", or "field" video, directed by
Rockflix in February 1978. This was the first video ever made by Kate,
as far as is known. It was originally intended for English television
broadcast, but was eventually rejected in favor of the in-studio video
directed by Keith "Keef" MacMillan. In this version Kate simply
lip-synchs the vocal while performing her choreographic routine. She is
dressed in a red dress, and the setting is a large open field or
meadow. Trees are visible in the distant background. At the conclusion
of the video Kate's figure slowly recedes into the background, through
a simply time-lapse special-effect. [This should be the same clip as item 1.]

| Die Efteling Tapes
|
Six videos (some refer to seven, but I only
know of six), taped in the Efteling Gardens (a gothic theme-park),
Amsterdam, April 1978. These performances are all of a piece. They were
all videotaped at the amusement part, using some of the spooky props
(moving tombstones and the like) to add a touch of humour to the
presentations. The final video seems to have been more carefully worked
out; at any rate it reflects its song's narrative far more directly
than the others. It features Kate as the doomed heroine of The Kick
Inside, dressed in black and veiled. She lip-synchs the vocal while
lying in a coffin--more properly, a death-barge--and at the end of the
song, she sails slowly down a placid river, evoking images of Elaine
and The Lady of Shalott, classic poetical figures of Arthurian legend.
Kate is memorably made-up in this video: her hair has been painted
white (or perhaps platinum-blond). The result is striking.

lip-synch, on an April, 1978 edition of
German TV programme Top Pop. Note: Ruud says this is a Dutch programme.
Peter says it is German. In it, Kate simply lip-synchs the song, adding
her dance routine. Throughout most of the performance Kate's face is
super-imposed so that it hovers to the left of a shot of her entire
figure. She wears another of her print, midi-length dresses and
"seventies" high heels, and her make-up is unmistakably "of its time".

Kate sang this live to a backing vocal; on
the German TV programme Scene 78. From April 1978. The KT Bush Band
does not appear. Kate makes less of an attempt to convey her dance
movements in this performance than she does in the Bio's Bahnhof
performance. Her vocal delivery is noticeably more assured, also, and a
slight reverb effect adds greatly to the success. She is dressed in a
black dress, and her make-up is more unassuming than on earlier the
earlier German television appearances.

from the U.K. rock programme Revolver, May
20, 1978. Kate is dressed in black tie and tails. [Note: Peter
FitzGerald-Morris describes Kate's costume as that of a "Savoy
waiter".] This is remarkable for the wonderful strength of the KT Bush
Band's live accompaniment. Their performance is exceptionally powerful,
and comes across well despite the difficult circumstances of the
taping. (Naturally, Kate's performance is equally professional.)
Following an introduction by Peter Cook, Kate appears on a cramped
television stage in front of a small teen-aged audience, who proceed to
dance or shuffle about aimlessly while Kate and the band perform the
song. The camera operator seems to prefer the distracted and
self-absorbed faces of the adolescent spectators to the spectacle of
Kate herself. Nevertheless this is a truly exciting clip.

from U.K. TV coverage of Kate's
participation in The Seventh Tokyo Song Festival, June 18, 1978. The
full performance also aired on Japanese TV. This UK clip featured shots
of Kate with Japanese hosts and fans, posing in front of Japanese
monuments and performing part of Moving at the competition. The British
narrator describes the event and its result--Kate shared second prize
with the American R-'n'-B female trio The Emotions--in straightforward
fashion. The Japanese broadcast featured Kate's complete performance of
the song. The song was sung live, with a large Japanese orchestral
backing.

(abridged

programme Sound in S, June 23, 1978. I have never seen this clip, but
from a tape-recording of Kate's performance I assume that this was part
of a programme consisting of cover-performances of the Beatles's
music. Kate's evidently took at least a few hours to rehearsd with the
elaborate orchestral ensemble, because her voice is augmented by
pre-recorded overdubs for the second number. The songs are severely
abridged versions of the originals, but Kate still manages to give them
her distinctive stamp.

with cue-notes mixed up. In a second appearance Kate mouths the words
"Remember me? I used to be Kate Bush!", and later, "He's so sexy!" in
synch with a rough, male Cockney voice. And in the third appearance (I
do not have this last one) Kate simply sits silent throughout, unable
to get a word in edgeways while Everett talks.

Some multiple-image video effects are also very similar. An excerpt
from this performance was re-broadcast as the introduction for Kate's
appearance on the U.K. TV programme Ask Aspel. Her backing was from a
large studio ensemble, with whom Kate had had minimal opportunity to
rehearse. Nevertheless, the result is very professional, far more
assured than her first Top of the Pops performance.

more intelligent questions than most of Kate's interviewers had done up
until that time. Kate is extraordinarily poised in the interview
segments, and her solo performance of Kashka, with self-accompaniment
on the piano, is completely assured. All in all, a very satisfying
early clip.

| The Man With the Child in His Eyes and Them Heavy People

sung
live on the U.S. TV programme Saturday Night Live, December 9, 1978.
This, the only performance Kate has ever given of her music for
American television, is still a vivid memory in many U.S. fans' minds.
After a very sincere introduction by Eric Idle, Kate appeared in a
shimmering gold body-stocking and perfectly crimped and plaited hair,
sitting cross-legged atop a grand piano. The accompanist was Paul
Shaffer (now a nationally famous musician in his role as leader of a
late-night talk-show's rock band), and additional off-screen backing
was heard as well. This performance is also the only unexpurgated
version on film, so far as I know. Kate's choreography is brilliant
throughout, and adds considerable nuance to the lyrics' meaning. Later
in the programme she re-appeared to perform Them Heavy People. For this
song she was dressed in a heavy trench-coat and wore a large Borsalino
hat--much as in the version performed for the Tour of Life, but without
her accompanying dancers. The backing sounded live, and included female
and male backing vocals. Her performance of both songs was absolutely
flawless, and her enigmatic expression at the conclusion of each--like
the whole presentation--was quite unprecedented on American
television. Finally, Kate appeared on-stage during the end-credits,
along with all the other guests and cast-members.

Kate's appearance on the news magazine report
about Keith "Keef" MacMillan's work, including the making of the Wow

MacMillan, Kate's experience during the making of the video, and the
topical subject of the rise of a then-new phenomenon: the promotional
music-video. Kate predicts a great future for the laser-video-disk,
before the home video-cassette market had yet taken off. Her early
prediction may well prove ultimately accurate, however. This clip
includes footage of MacMillan directing the "flying" special-effect
which involved connecting Kate to wires and hoisting her in the air; as
well as one or two brief shots of Kate rehearsing the lip-synch.

| Live at the Hammersmith Odeon
|
The official, edited videotape
of the May 13, 1979 concert from London's Hammersmith Odeon. This
videotape is an indispensible record of Kate's Tour of Life shows. It
only features twelve of the twenty-three or so songs which were
included in the programmes of the original concerts, and much of the
ambience of the live performances is lost, partly because of Keef's
sometimes intrusive habit of doubling the image at every opportunity,
and his reluctance to show a view of the stage as a whole. The effect
is to reduce the apparent scale of the concerts, and to give the
individual songs an appearance of sameness which they absolutely did
not have originally. Nevertheless, this audio-visual record retains
the
kernel of the live shows, and for that reason it is of tremendous
interest and importance.
Additional raw footage from this film, never released to the
public, was shot during this concert; and some excerpts from that
footage was shown to the audience at the official Kate Bush Convention
in Romford, England in 1985. No copies of that footage are in
circulation among fans, however, so far as I am aware.

|
The "Christmas" TV special, U.K. TV, aired December 28,
1979. This forty-five-minute television programme is the only longform
televised performance Kate has given to date. It is by any standard a
great success. Not one spoken word is heard--only song and dance.
Kate's only guest (aside from the KT Bush Band and her usual
dance partners) is Peter Gabriel.
1. Intro music: a simple melodic phrase, without lyrics, sung by
Kate while a glittery hand creates the title on the screen.
2. Violin. Pre-LP mix used for lip-synch, without some of the
sound effects heard on the final version, other-wise identical. The
choreography is essentially the same as that used for the Tour of Life
shows.
3. Satie's Gymnopedie No. 1, played by the KT Bush Band as
background for the two giant violins (Paddy and his friend Andrew
Bryant), who mime an introduction for the next song:
4. Symphony in Blue. Sung live with the KT Bush Band. Kate
sings and accompanies herself at the piano.
5. Them Heavy People. Lip-synched to a live recording.
6. A cappella introduction for Peter Gabriel (Peter the Angel
Gabriel.) This is sung by Kate, Paddy and one of Kate's female vocal
supporters from the Tour of Life, all of whom are dressed as
choristers. The brief introduction segues directly into Peter Gabriel's
performance of his song Here Comes the Flood, which he sings at an
electric piano.
7. Ran Tan Waltz (known at this time as The Ran Tan). Lip-synch
to the same mix later released on vinyl. This is, in my opinion, one
of Kate's three finest stage performances. An absolutely brilliant
piece of modern-dance choreography, packed with subtle narrative
details stunningly and beguilingly executed by Kate, Stewart
Avon-Arnold and Gary Hurst.
8. December Will Be Magic Again. An early version, sung by Kate
at the piano, with Kevin McAlea behind her adding keyboard
embellishments on an electric piano.
9. The Wedding List. A video which switches to an in-studio
("live") lip-synch toward the end. The video sections incorporate
imagery based on old westerns as well as the Truffaut film The Bride
Wore Black. The stage section of the performance is very similar to the
live choreography for James and the Cold Gun, in which Kate's character
goes on the rampage with a rifle.
10. Another Day. Another video mixed with in-studio stage
performance. The music was all pre-recorded, then acted out by Gabriel
and Kate, who sit stonily at a tea-table. A second set of pre-filmed
images of the characters is seen in a picture-frame behind them.
11. Egypt. A video performance with Kate's flighty, superficial
protagonist standing in romantic, exotic clothing in front of a screen
on which are projected a series of gritty newsreel shots of the reality
of modern-day Egypt. Toward the end two veiled men, referred to by
Peter F.-M. as "Phantom Phlingers" (a TisWas surround and threaten
Kate's character.
12. The Man With the Child in His Eyes. Again, a combination of
"live" performance (Kate singing at the piano) and pre-recorded video
(a small inset of Kate cross-legged, performing the choreography for
the song, and placed so as to appear like a smaller-than-life figure
sitting on top of the piano). At the end the small figure gets up and
hurries to another stage where she looks around trepidatiously
(watching out for video pixies!) and jumps into a garbage can--which
serves as a segue to:
13. Don't Push Your Foot on the Heart Brake. A live stage
performance, done to a pre-recorded (?) audio performance of the song;
finally fading to end titles, which roll to the accompaniment of the
LP version of Wuthering Heights.

lip-synch/video, taped March 20, 1980, for the U.K.
TV programme The Dr. Hook Special. Also includes interview and No. 39.
This video was made shortly before the programme aired. It involved
some rather complicated video effects. Kate is featured in a rather
bizarre costume: on her the right side she resembles a staid Victorian
lady in mourning dress; on the left side a glittering, liberated young
woman in a silvery jumpsuit, with bright lightning-streaks painted down
her "side" of Kate's face. Her figure is lit so that only the
"repressed" side of her costume is visible during the verses of the
song, and mainly the "free" side during the choruses.
After the performance ends, Kate is seen sitting among the members
of the American pop group Dr. Hook, whose ill-spoken members crack
childish, bathroom-humor asides about and to Kate. Kate, of course,
takes everything with good grace, smiling nervously throughout.
Finally, after a stunningly ignorant and illiterate introduction by a
member of Dr. Hook, Kate's video (never commercially released) for
Delius is shown (see entry number 39).

video, taped March 20, 1980 for the U.K. TV programme
The Dr. Hook Special. (Also shown November 25, 1980 as part of a
programme about the composer Frederick Delius from the U.K. TV series
The Russell Harty Show, November 25, 1980--see entry number 50.) This
video, which was never included among Kate's commercial video packages,
was made very quickly but after careful preparation (see Paddy Bush's
reminiscences about the shoot in an issue of the Newsletter). The
setting is a quiet, lazy English riverbank filled with reeds and grass.
By the bank is a wheelchair-ridden old man, his body covered by a
throw-rug, his head obscured by a large yellow disk resembling a sun.
This figure presents an image of Delius much like the one which was
depicted in a BBC television film about Delius's late years which was
directed by Ken Russell in the early 1970s and which had greatly
impressed Kate as a child. Gliding along on the river is a young
swan-girl, represented by Kate in a gossamer white gown with wings. The
imagery for this performance might nearly as well have served to
illustrate Kate's cover version of Donovan's Lord of the Reedy River,
as well, so compatible is the imagery. (No video was ever made for the
Donovan song.) Also note the re-use of the sun-mask in a scene from the
Breathing video.

version of the video's choreography, without the bass viol which she
had used in other television performances of the song. Behind her a
series of enormously enlarged Christmas-card designs are projected.

Kate shows her video for Delius; and
discusses the music of Frederick Delius with Harty, Eric Fenby and
Julian Lloyd Webber. U.K. TV, November 25, 1980.
The program begins with Kate meeting Harty on stage, hiding a
large hammer behind her back, and slyly promising not to hurt him.
Later the Delius video is shown, and afterward Kate joins the group
discussion about the British composer. Fenby is pressed for an opinion
of Kate's song, and politely suggests that Delius would have applauded
Kate for "at least doing her own thing." Harty patronizingly accuses
Kate of intellectual pretensions in her choice of subjects for her
songs, to which she ably and devastatingly replies that "music is pure
emotion." Unfortunately Julian Lloyd Webber does not join in the brief
and hurried discussion.

This performance features a marvellously detailed and energetic
dance routine. Kate and her dance-team perform on a cramped, wildly lit
television stage, surrounded by teenagers. The video technicians for
the show nearly overpower Kate's performance with special effects, but
their application does make some sense in connection with the verses;
and at the end some virtuosic pre-recorded effects with floating
Tenners, Fivers and Ten-Shilling notes are super-imposed over the live
routine with remarkable success. Obviously much care and effort went
into this presentation.

This performance is a straightforward routine of the well-known

image of a live chameleon, or iguana, behind the figures of Kate and
her dance-partners. At the conclusion of the performance the host of
the programme shows the small light-box containing the tiny lizard used
for the special effect. Then he congratulates Kate in German and

Entries numbers 61-64 all date from about the same time in 1982
when Kate visited Italy to promote The Dreaming single. Her performance
(with her dance partners) is basically the same in all four
appearances, although there are a few interesting little differences in
the dance routines. The sets are all rather garishly lit and
glittering television studio environments, and Kate is forced to stand
around, expressionless and apparently even a bit annoyed at the delay
and lack of drama, while the Italian hosts of the programmes flippantly
rave about Kate's career and new album.

This appearance is remarkable in that Kate is welcomed and
introduced by none other than the French tennis star Yannick Noah! He
gets Kate to say the title of the song in French (Suspendu au Gaffa),
which she does with perfect elocution. The performance follows. Kate
has no props, and simply executes a version of the choreography used in
the video. She is dressed in a dark body-stocking with a red sash, and
is surrounded by a small, teen-aged audience.

lip-synch from the German TV programme

One of six European/English lip-synch performances of this song,
none of which is particularly remarkable. Kate's conception for the
onstage version of this song was apparently that it should be performed
as simply as possible, and with a minimum of choreographed movement.
Most of these video-clips begin with a shot of the drumskin, and the
drummer tapping out the familiar march-tattoo of the song. There are no
props used for these performances, although Kate's movements
occasionally recall the "oratorical" stance which she used in the Wogan
Show lip-synch, in which she actually stood behind a podium, a la
Killing Joke's Eighties video, which Kate might have been deliberately
quoting (she has twice mentioned that song as among her favourites of
recent years).

So far as I am aware this is the only unedited
(not-for-broadcast) video-taped interview in circulation. It is also
the most excruciating of all Kate Bush video-clips. For more than half
an hour Kate sits absolutely still before an unblinking stationary
camera, answering with remarkable patience and professionalism an
interminable series of asinine and shockingly ill-informed questions
from an unseen American bimbo. Several times Kate is asked to repeat
long answers she has just given, simply because the sound technicians
had mis-adjusted the microphones. Finally, after the hopelessly inept
interviewer finally subsides, Kate is further exploited by the boorish
American studio crew, who pressure her into delivering a series of
advertising "spots" for a number of television programmes. As usual,
Kate suffers through all of these indignities with perfect grace.

This is a very interesting lip-=synch performance. Kate added a
powerfully re-mixed rhythmic introduction to the (otherwise standard
mix of) Hounds of Love. She appeared on stage in a black World War
II-era suit with a beautiful blouse of white lace. She used a
microphone as a prop, although the song was lip-synched. Her band
consisted of two drummers with full kits, flanking a third, standing,
drummer; Del Palmer at a small synthesizer; and flanking Kate herself,
Paddy and Jonathan Williams playing celli (Paddy's efforts obviously
faked, Williams's obviously not). In the final moments of the
performance Kate's companion from the video, an actor chosen by Kate
for his strikingly "period" facial type, appears by her side, dressed
in a forties-era suit and slouch hat, and he and Kate perform a few
quick but dramatic dance steps, while Kate continues to lip-synch.

One of the most important of all of Kate's television

the instruments include at least two Fairlight CMIs. Kate herself sits
behind an elegant desk with a computer and two Egyptian Sphinx-design
paperweight/bookends. She is studying several files in manila folders,
much as the "General" is doing in the official video. Clearly a great
deal of preparation and care went into the preparation of this set and
the performance. Midway through the song the violinist Nigel Kennedy
appears in military uniform and plays to Kate, sitting on the edge of
her desk. During the mysterious "secret-message" section of the song a
new camera-angle showing the screen of the monitor on Kate's desk is
seen, and on this screen, super-imposed over a jumble of data, what
looks like Paddy's head appears, mouthing some indecipherable (?) words
in synch with the spoken "messages" heard in the record (between the
lines "It could sing you to sleep" and "But that dream is your enemy",
and again directly after the latter line). Altogether a fascinating and
intriguing performance, and far more challenging than other artists'
television lip-synchs.

Aired on Canadian TV, summer 1987. (The Laurie Brown interview

This interview is one of the best of all video-taped interviews to

considered and worded, and Kate's answers, consequently, are frank and
very enlightening. The interview was conducted at Kate's own home in
England, and there are one or two shots of the back garden and the
interior of one room. Kate is clearly in the midst of recording:
although the lighting is not flattering, she does appear heavier than
she had during the 1985 promotional tour--no doubt a quite temporary
condition brought about by the long and sedentary work-schedule. By the
time of this writing Kate is probably as lean and fit as ever--in
preparation for the Tour of Life II (!).
