I forgot the subject line the last time] Hi, I'm relatively new to this group, AND don't read new too often, so please forgive me if this has been covered before. Last time I looked in on rec.music.gaffa there was a lot of talk about a six album set which I believe was called "This Woman's Work". Can anyone give me any information on this? I had not been keeping up with new releases since The Sensual World came out, due to unfortunate circumstances. But now that that is behind me, I would be most interested in adding this new set to my collection. Please email information to: gmg@sybase.com Thank you very much! I first discovered Kate via an old girlfriend's new boyfriend back in 1983. I must admit that at the time I wasn't too fond of her vocals on the first two albums (The Kick Inside and Lionheart), but I immediately fell in love with her lyrics. I DID enjoy the vocals as well as the lyrics on her later albums, and soon grew to enjoy the vocals on the first two as well. I have been completely crazy about her work ever since. Kate is the only exception to my rule of not buying CD versions of vinyl albums I already own. As far as favorite albums go, I would have to say that mine is Hounds Of Love, especially side two (The Ninth Wave). There's just something magical about that side. I just love the way the themes of the various songs seem to intertwine. Of course I like ALL of the other albums almost as much as this one, so it's kind of a close call. In fact, I would be incapable of picking a single favorite song from her body of work. There are just too many good ones!
