33 1/3 Book Club

We've teamed up with Nice Price Books and Records for a monthly book club. We read a different book from the 33 1/3 series, listen to the record, and meet to discuss over snacks and drinks!
This month, we'll be reading Leah Kardos' book Hounds of Love.
This book charts the emergence of Kate Bush in the early-to-mid-1980s as a courageous experimentalist, a singularly expressive recording artist and a visionary music producer.
Track-by-track commentaries focus on the experience of the album from the listener's point of view, drawing attention to the art and craft of Bush's songwriting, production and sound design. It considers the vast impact and influence that Hounds Of Love has had on music cultures and creative practices through the years, underlining the artist's importance as a barrier-smashing, template-defying, business-smart, record-breaking, never-compromising role model for artists everywhere.
Hounds Of Love invites you to not only listen, but to cross the boundaries of sensory experience into realms of imagination and possibility. Poised and accessible, yet still experimental and complex, with Hounds Of Love Bush mastered the art of her studio-based songcraft, finally achieving full control of her creative process.
Join us at the shop on Wednesday, September 2 at 7pm for beer, wine, snacks, and book/album discussion.
