Title: Not Lionheart
Review: I first discovered Kate Bush when she released Lionheart. I can no longer play that old vinyl album, so I thought I would buy it in CD. After logging on and reading the reviews, I decided to by Hounds of Love instead. If it's better than Lionheart, it must be great. I am very disappointed. She does not display her vocal range on this CD, which was one of the things I originally found fascinating in her music. I didn't find the haunting or varied melodies I expected. And only a few tracks demonstrated her abilities with lyrics. Several of the reviews suggested her music had 'matured' with this CD. My impression is that she dumbed it down, or made it more generic, to appeal to a wider audience. I'm going back to Lionheart.
