Seeing Kate play live at the Hammersmith Apollo in 2014 from the middle of the 4th row was so emotional. I thought she wouldn't play Cloudbusting when the concert ended ..but she came back and sung it for the encore...an experience I will never forget. Hounds of Love was released in the days well before Spotify when we would listen to whole albums. I always imagined the story she was telling on the Hounds of Love from start to finish and her live performance was exactly how I imagined - "And Dream of Sheep" was so powerful - in fact, many powerful moments in that show that I will always feel privileged to have experienced.

thats tony franklin - awesome bass player

You need to see the saxophonist for Pink Floyd's "Delicate Sound of Thunder" tour, Scott Page. It's out of this world.

OBSESSED WITH THE BASSLINE!!!! KATE IS A BABY FOREVER IN MY HEART ❤❤❤ 2090 AND COUNTING!!!!

[@brianmarten3053]

The Bassist and the Drummer are obvious talents, because they make it breathe with the life Kate's Music deserves. Thanks to Gilmour for making sure our world didn't miss her vision.

[@warrenbridges1891]

Brian Marten Stuart Elliott. Kate's drummer since 1977.

[@ghostrder6127]

With David Gilmour, this song is PURE!!

[@TheGuerillapatriot]

Never knew who this was. Such a bizarre song when it came out. Hypnotic, emotional, evokes emotion. Dark recess of the mind fire off, hope, longing, happiness. It's just so awesome.

[@derekbaker3279]

IMHO, this song is ne of the greatest works of art to come from the 80s, regardless of genre. This is a good, energetic version, however, IMHO, a few of your well-chosen words, "hypnotic" & "dark" do not apply to this live version as much as they did when you described the album version. The iconic modified "cello" part done with the Fairlight CMI is missing here & the Fairlight CMI choir seems to be absent too. (Much of the ttime, it was hard to hear the synth part, so I'm not 100% sure whether or not the JP-8 was playing some sort of choir sound, although nothing sounds like a Fairlight.)

[@lionelvigier2838]

There, we reach the pinnacle of excellence, Bush-Gilmour, I want more!

[@relevantbrother8964]

Tony is in the zone here...really wondrous bass playing driving the song along.

[@michaelquinn7710]

Imagine these two doing the Superbowl half time show!!!

[@jimegan6848]

As if the song isn't legendary enough, David Gilmour's accompaniment makes this punch a hole in the sky.

[@onlyme219]

And the mullet-wearing bass player, he defo did his part

[@BaconTomatoCheese]

Phenomenal performance of this song! I love how Dave and Kate look at each other and smile❤️❤️

Dead on, damn straight. Would have been a cool side project for Kate. I'd love to hear them do some Dark Side of the Moon and even some The Wall stuff with Kate on vocals. Ahh, what could have been.

[@RadRogue1]

It would be cool to have Howard Jones on synthesizers.

[@ErosGalaxia]

@@danbrockettDOP Not only that but in reality it probably could of benefitted Gilmour in the long run as Waters had already left Pink Floyd & this was done during the A Momentary Lapse of Reason period which unfortunately wasn’t a favorite among fans (Personally the album is alright to me). Gilmour could of postponed Pink Floyd in favor of the supergroup and the rest could of been history.

[@Tojazzer]

You're a legend when David Gilmour discovers you and then supplies back-up vocals. That sweet guitar playing is something else.

Tony Franklin absolutely KILLS on the bass on this. Next year he was off to the Firm with Jimmy Page and Paul Rogers. (Rodgers?).

My favourite version of this timeless classic - breathtaking. The chemistry and musicianship is out of this world!

[@IgnavusOchre]

Tony Franklins hair, surpassed only by his fretless awesomweness

[@LTAD-xi6sw]

Gilmour was the guy who discovered Kate Bush was immensely talented and helped her record a demo to present to record labels. This is the two of them coming full circle. So glad there is footage of this

[@michelleper5065]

I start thinking she might very well be the best female pop/rock musician in history of modern music, it was always close between her and Cyndi lauper, Tina turner, Whitney houston and few others, but she is really having edge over them, with time she is surpassing them, still very close between her and Cyndi but she has the edge.

[@ec03nd2]

Record companies were then riding the Gravy Train. Any tape Gilmour presented , they would treat with special care. So, Kate Bush was born.

[@michelleper5065]

@@ec03nd2 As they should, i wish it remained this way then you would have little more kates and much less britneys, eh? God have mercy.

[@Michael-mm3fm]

@@michelleper5065 interesting selection, did Houston or Turner write their own stuff? No. Bush is on a separate planet.

[@michelleper5065]

@@Michael-mm3fm i said she was having the edge due to her writing her own stuff, but whitney had better voice and tina had better sense of the market and was more of a libero type performer... very hard to win against rod stewart and tina.. they were incredible.. kate wins only because she wrote her own music.

[@THESTIG-cc7fq]

I think this version adds that rock element that was there but was under played. Now it has an edge and a good edge at that, a fantastic musical and vocal performance l thank Kate and David for this brilliant live version.

[@feckyoo2]

This just made me cry. My granddad passed away in 1980 but told me Kate Bush would be a huge star. Look at her now, number 1 again. X

[@athena450]

Kate Bush performs so little that I swear a part of me forgets she's a real person as opposed to some sort of pop mythological figure until I watch videos like this. Honestly how is it possible for one woman to evoke such massive amounts of emotion with just her voice?

[@matteice6675]

Another 80's banger 🤘🏼🖤

[@j.j.meredith8492]

I had no idea till today that David Gillmore discovered her when she was 13, and by 19 she wrote over 40 songs. Amazing.

[@cactaceous]

She was 15 and when he got her with producers and engineers, she already had over 40 songs. At 15.

[@souhityogupta7704]

In the middle of the solo, David had a clear opportunity at 3:07 to come up with an iconic lick instead of a delicate one but he knew if he did that it would overshadow Kate's performance ... Love and respect for David Gilmour 🎉❤

This is so good, the bassist makes that version unbelievable Where has this kind of music gone ?

[@pty8s]

The new industry does not require art to achieve max profits. No temperament, no rights to the living. The argument to breach, as Prince and Michael had. Just total bare leverage. And they will come.
