Michael Kamen wrote the string arrangements which will appear on Kate Bush's forthcoming album. LMO recorded the two tracks at Abbey Road Studio 2 on Saturday 11th October. Michael Kamen has collaborated with Kate Bush on numerous occasions, including writing string arrangements for her last album which LMO performed. They worked together in the mid 80s on the soundtrack for the Terry Gilliam film "Brazil" and a version of the title track appears on Michael's album "Michael Kamen's Opus". Michael Kamen conducted the 16-piece string section and the engineer was Simon Rhodes. Keep watching the site for news of a release date and a "buy" link on the recordings page. AND MORE: This is from Peter Fitzgerald-Morris from the Kate Bush News and Information forum. Peter is one of the founders and editors of Homeground Magazine - "We had heard a few weeks ago that Kate would be doing her final recording work at Abbey Rd, and did hear on the day she went in, but we were not able to break the news at that point, but it was one of the reasons that we were still confident that work on the album is comming to an end as we stated in the last HomeGround....a release date in Spring next still seems quite a reasonable target. But we'll see." (Source: at forumz and www.lmo.co.uk/?page=news&id=21 ) well, i'm very happy to hear that...and very curious how it's going to sound like.. stefan

Yeah this is cool. I like Kate Bush. I know some people think she is a bit too eccentric but there you go... I like eccentrics! I was actually gonna post a message about Kate on Mr. Microphone as I think Tori is or at least sounds as if she is very much influenced by Kate's sound! What do you think? On a sadder note, did you hear that Michael Kamen died of a heart attack just last month? He had also been suffering with Multiple Sclerosis for almost 10 years but only recently made it public... He was only 55...
