Even though I love it very much, I have to pick "The Red Shoes"

I like/love all Kate's albums, but the one that I'm least connected to is Never For Ever. Give me time, though...

I voted for Lionheart. I love 'Coffee Homeground' and 'Hammer Horror', but it just doesn't affect me like her other work does.

Most here who know me, won't be surprised to hear that I voted for The Sensual World..
Even after all these years I'm only just coming to terms with it, but if I had to sacrifice one - this would be it.

Yes, that was me. (Aerial) Just not one of my faves... yet. I couldn't do without the others. I guess I just don't find it as fascinating. And, it includes a few songs I just can't grow to like, which is rare.

There's a spread of votes. I thought two albums in particular would be wayy in the lead.

I voted Aerial...
I haven't actually heard The Red Shoes, The Dreaming or Lionheart though...

I haven't actually heard The Red Shoes, The Dreaming or Lionheart though... Then I almost envy you. You have some serious treats coming your way! Listen to "Lionheart" first, then "The Red Shoes". After that, prepare yourself for the extraordinary experience that is "The Dreaming".. It'll need time and concentration on your part as it may be the most challenging of her recordings. Once you get it though, expect to be hooked for life.. IMHO, it is the first of her three masterpieces ~ the album which first revealed her true greatness..

I'm curious now, Adey. What three albums do you think are Kate's masterpieces?

I'm curious now, Adey. What three albums do you think are Kate's masterpieces? Easy question James! The Dreaming, Hounds of Love & Aerial.. Agreed. But not in that order. 1. Aerial - for accomplished lyrical and musical prowess and execution combined with sage and uplifting wisdom. 1. The Dreaming - for visceral and deeply vicarious excursions into dark and thrilling places. 1. Hounds of Love - for sheer genius in bridging the gap between the personally emotional to the sublimely universal in beautiful and frightening majesty. So, for different reasons, these 3 tie for first. ;D

Easy question James! The Dreaming, Hounds of Love & Aerial.. Agreed. But not in that order. Oh yes, I wouldn't attempt to rank them. How can brilliant be more brilliant than brilliant! er, I think..

Nice answers, guys My favourite Kate album is The Sensual World. I think that's her classic- it's the same age as me, too.

Sorry I do check in as much--new job. James--welcome--but honestly I couldn't disagree with you more. NFE is my fave and TSW is my least. But they are all great and let's all feel the love! ;D
