i've just used your link and NOT THIS TIME was being played.....fantastic at 1am
love that song!!!
Yeah it's a good page ain't it.

I missed off Sexual Healing (B side of KOTM) when I posted the links to cover versions.
The YouTube vid by dawndy61 shows his tour programme from Liverpool 3/4/79 (first ever show).
If you view full screen, it makes it easier to read.

I've always loved this show. I've got it recorded on Betamax from when it was first shown, probably unplayable now. Like the bit where Kate tries to keep her fake beard falling off during the 'Ran Tan Waltz' section.

I'm a huge Bush fan! - well actually I'm quite trim and gay but you know what I mean

Hounds of Love is one of my favourite albums.

i know most of you will be in the land of nod by now, but bbc4 is repeating kate's 1979 xmas special at 01.30
all this repeated kate exposure is well worth this years licence money

Wow. I just listened to 'Hounds of Love' on vinyl, and it was even more excellent than usual.

I am sure, although it may be wishful thinking, that there was also a BBC special for the Never For Ever album. I'm sure I do remember seeing something. Can anyone else confirm this?

I wish some of the archive material would have a proper release.

Kate appeared in a Dr Hook special singing Babooshka about that time.

Not sure which part of the tour this is from - Holland or Germany?

I've just looked through my books and it was shown on BBC2 on the 7th/8th April 1980.
