Summary: Imaginative, theatrical, visual tour-de-force from Kate
Comment: Anyone who hasn't seen Kate Bush's interesting (to say the least) videos will see her creativity at full force in her concert at the Hammersmith Odeon, where this video was filmed on 13 May 1979. She directed, produced, and designed this concert, featuring a wide range of costumes, dances, theatrics, mime performances, colourful lights, and quite an imagination, all the product of Kate, who seems to be in her own little universe.The bulk of the material is taken from her debut The Kick Inside, with three songs from Lionheart, and one that would later appear on her third album, Never For Ever.
Moving- interspersed with footage of the ocean, this song has her in a blue outfit and black tights. She wears a headset mike in this number.
Them Heavy People- she wears a fedora and a beige overcoat like some detective.
Violin-after a footage of a burning violin, this bizarre upbeat song has her jumping up with the yelps in this tune. Whereas the Never For Ever album featured a violin, the concert here uses an electric guitar. And the appearance of a mad fiddler, plus two people in violin costumes who knock her on the head at the end.
Strange Phenomena- After a close-up shot of Saturn, there are two spacemen who pull out coloured hankies from Kate's sleeves
Hammer Horror-After footage of bats, she doesn't sing at all in this ode to Hammer films, the song being piped through speakers, but her mime-like expressions are superb here, as she dances with and mimes with a menacing black hooded figure. Her clenched teeth and expressions of horror demonstrate how much mime has played in her performances.
Don't Push Your Foot On The Heartbrake-she and her dancers make railroad train motions and steering wheel motions in this rocker from the Lionheart album.
Wow- Also from Lionheart, she wears a mauve-ish sleeveless gown in this one, and the way the red light adds quite a tinge to her dark brown hair.
Feel It- Kate relaxes and is the girl with her piano in this ballad.
Kite- Two dancers hold her up and run carrying her while she yelps with pleasure. it ends with an instrumental jam and a wind sound effect, to which Kate and her dancers mime being blown off the stage.
James And The Cold Gun- one of the highlights here. Wearing a tight black and gold Western outfit, wielding a pistol, later a rifle, she confronts three other gunmen whom she shoots with a rifle, jumping up and down as the drums match the machine-gun like rat-a-tat. Her opponents jerk and collapse admirably.
Oh England My Lionheart- she is wearing a bomber jacket and goggled helmet in this melting ballad to her home country.
Wuthering Heights- best for last, her signature tune. The crowd really cheers with this number. And as she is making her exit, she jumps up and down wildly, waving all the while. She's clearly had fun doing this concert. I wonder if Sarah Brightman found inspiration doing stuff like this in her La Luna concert. Kate's concert video is an innovative creative show from her early period that's not just another live concert. It's a visual look into her mind. Oh, and this video also included a CD of this concert.

Summary: The Glorious Joy of the Goddess as she Sings and Dances
Comment: First, this is a very early "music video", by year, however it is more modern, and out there than a lot of what is "current" Kate wrote, directed, arranged, choreographed it. It rocks. I first saw this video in 1987, and each and every time I see it, it gets better. Kate Bush dances in styles that range from modern dance, belly dance, and on to symbolic art. This is a LIVE performance. You can tell the audience loves her, and she interacts and loves them back. The songs on album are tender, witty, and she can pull off the deepest emotions, with the words in her songs. Sometimes I cry at the tenderness, and then go right on to rocking out with other tunes. I use this as a aid in belly dancing classes. The songs in the perfomance flow, one to the other, and after you have seen it once, you are captured and want more KATE. I share this video with my best friends. Even if they can't hear Kate's words, the intent comes through, and then they want to hear it over and over. I don't know if one can just sit and watch the video, without moving and getting involved. I haven't been able to do it.
