Kate Bush - All Time Top Ten (From Smash Hits) 1. Frank Zappa: Overnite Sensation (Discreet). 'Montana' Was the first Zappa track I ever heard and it's stuck as a firm favourite. 2. A.L. Lloydand Ewan MacColl: Blow Boys Blow (topic). I was brought up with this album. 3. Eagles: One Of These Nights (Asylum). I played it to death when studying with Lindsay Kemp and it reminds me of him. 4. David Bowie: Young Americans (RCA). It reminds me of 1976, the drought, summer and open windows. 5. The Beatles: Sergeant Pepper (Parlophone). Because it's an album of excellent songs. 6. Eberhard Weber: Fluid Rustle (ECM). It's like having your brain massaged. 7. Captain Beefheart: Blue Jeans and Moonbeams (Virgin). This is the beefheart album where he writes love songs like nobody else. 8. Stevie Wonder: The Secret Life Of Plants (Motown). Because it's a modern symphony with a high emotional content. 9. Pink Floyd: The Wall (Harvest). Because it reminds me of last Christmas and open fires and I wish I'd written it. 10. The TV National Iranian Chamber Orchestra: Treasures Of The Baroque Era (EMI). Because it allows my mind to sit own and go 'aah'. I listen to it when doing paperwork. In fact while writing this list!
