5.0 out of 5 stars Not for the purists, but...
I understand the negative reviews. This is an album of straight-up covers of Kate Bush songs and, of course, nobody can be Kate, but for what this album is, it's really good. Jemma Price does a great job with the vocals and E-Clypse, whoever that/they is/are, really nails the music (which is pretty unbelievable if you've ever tried to play any of it yourself). If you...

2.0 out of 5 stars Totally Confused
Ever made a photocopy 100 times and noticed the distortion? Well, I haven't either but this recording seems as if it has been indeed proverbally "copied".

2.0 out of 5 stars Totally Confused, April 5, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Tribute to Kate Bush (Audio CD)
Ever made a photocopy 100 times and noticed the distortion? Well, I haven't either but this recording seems as if it has been indeed proverbally "copied". I thought this was going to be a "tribute" album, meaning other artists singing Kate's material and incorporating their own style. I love KB but I'm trying to figure out the "moral justification" for this release. It is merely a good singer trying to "hit" Kate's notes lick for lick. Nothing new or worthwhile here; as the other reviewer said, just buy the Whole Story instead and hear the real thing.

So in summary, I am confused as to why this was even made?

1.0 out of 5 stars Pointless, December 29, 2000
This review is from: Tribute to Kate Bush (Audio CD)
There is no reason for this record to exist. These are attempted copies of the original songs--not *interpretations*, as you'd expect from a "tribute" record. Go buy the originals and ignore this very bad idea.

1.0 out of 5 stars very, very bad, March 29, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Tribute to Kate Bush (Audio CD)
Just a band trying to play the songs as close to the original as possible, with a bad singer

2.0 out of 5 stars What a bore, February 4, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Tribute to Kate Bush (Audio CD)
Disappointing. What I look for in a tribute album are creative spins on the works of an accomplished artists. This is just a band trying to sound just like Kate Bush. You'd be better off buying "The Whole Story" and listen to the original artist perform her own works.

1.0 out of 5 stars Makes a very nice coaster..., August 7, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Tribute to Kate Bush (Audio CD)
Who is Jemma Price and why did she butcher these beautiful Kate Bush songs? Jemma's voice is very contrived and tries (ungraciously) to mimic the original work note-for-note. A tribute album it's not!

The original albums containing these songs are timeless enough. Buy them instead!

1.0 out of 5 stars Sorry....it simply isn't Kate Bush, February 10, 2000
This review is from: Tribute to Kate Bush (Audio CD)
Kate doesn't need any tributes. No one can ever match the power and beauty of the originals, and that is certainly the case here. Ill conceived.

1.0 out of 5 stars AHHHHHHHHH!!!! HORRIBLE!, June 11, 2005
By 
This review is from: Tribute to Kate Bush (Audio CD)
I love kate bush, and when I saw "tribute" I was hoping for a bunch of artists doing their own takes on Kate songs. To me this album is HELL. It's just one woman trying to sound like Kate Bush and bring nothing original to the songs. Blah. I naver want to hear this album again.

1.0 out of 5 stars oh dear god make it stop!, February 11, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Tribute to Kate Bush (Audio CD)
This cd is not very good. These are terrible versions of Kate's songs. In addition, this is some of the worst sound I have ever heard on a cd. They sound like they are singing and playing miles away from the recording studio. Concert bootlegs sound better than this. Please think before you buy this awful cd. There are plenty of Kate cds to listen to.

By A Customer
This review is from: Tribute to Kate Bush (Audio CD)
Why, Why, Why, Unbelievable. This is totally unnecessary. Do not buy this without listening to the samples.
