In 1980, Kate Bush released the album that changed everything.
Never for Ever was more than the follow-up to The Kick Inside and Lionheart. It was the record where Kate began taking real control of the studio, co-producing with Jon Kelly, experimenting with the Fairlight CMI, incorporating sampled sounds and transforming recording into an extension of songwriting itself.
Iconic Albums – Kate Bush: The Never for Ever Era (1980) explores the making of one of the most important transitional albums of Kate Bush’s career.
From the aftermath of the ambitious Tour of Life and the frustrations of making Lionheart, through the recording of songs such as “Babooshka,” “Breathing,” “Army Dreamers,” “The Wedding List,” “Delius” and “The Infant Kiss,” this book follows Kate as she becomes increasingly confident behind the mixing desk.
Discover the stories behind the broken glass sampled for “Babooshka,” the haunting military sounds of “Army Dreamers,” Kate’s early encounter with the Fairlight, her work alongside musicians including Paddy Bush, John Giblin and Stuart Elliott, and the extraordinary visual world surrounding the album’s videos and Nick Price’s unforgettable sleeve artwork.
The book also examines the album’s recurring contrasts — innocence and violence, fantasy and reality, beauty and horror, birth and death — and how Kate used different voices and characters to make Never for Ever feel like a collection of miniature theatrical performances.
Released on 8 September 1980, Never for Ever became Kate Bush’s first UK No. 1 album and a landmark achievement for a British female solo artist.
More importantly, it gave Kate the confidence to take the next decisive step.
The safety net was coming off.
The Dreaming was next.
A detailed celebration of the album that transformed Kate Bush from extraordinary songwriter into one of pop music’s most adventurous studio artists.
