First Stevie, and now the even more elusive Kate!

In MAY (coincidence!) Kate will release an album called the Director's Cut. This album will feature re-worked songs from the Sensual World and The Red Shoes. Plus, Kate's people have CONFIRMED that totally new material is coming as well.
The reworked version of Deeper Understanding will be released as a single next month.

How odd. Why would she want to rework such exquisite tracks as "Song of Solomon" or "The Fog"?

It'll be interesting to hear what she does, nonetheless. But I'd rather hear her rework her earlier songs (like "In Search of Peter Pan" or "Moving"), which were much more conventionally orchestrated.

OMG :blob1: :blob2:. I'm a bit puzzled that she would revisit The Sensual World, which I find to be perfect as-is, The Red Shoes less so. But usually new Kate music is preceded by years and years of speculation. I can't believe there is actually a release date! May is going to be the best month in the history of music!

Thanks for finding this news!

While I'm looking forward to Directors Cut, it will be the confirmed new material that she will be releasing soon. Ok, we know why Stevie went back to the studio - but Kate?

The way way waaay more elusive Kate..she has not toured in over 30 years whereas La Nicks will tour at seemingly any and every opportunity.:rolleyes:

I'm super excited about this new offering from Kate and also intrigued...I always thought of Kate as someone who would always be moving forward in terms of her work and not want to look back on projects she had already done. Obviously, I was wrong and actually glad I was. I, too, am puzzled by the album choices. Why just choose two specific albums and not songs from across her entire catalog? Kate is obviously quite the perfectionist so I wonder if she was in someway unhappy with the way these two albums turned out? I sense the reason is far more complex than that since after all she has been producing and writing her albums entirely since The Dreaming. She's been in the driver's seat and certaintly cant' be accused of rushing through an album just for the sake of getting it out to the masses.I hope she does a few interviews regarding this project to give us some insight into its origins. But I'm very much looking forward to hearing these reworked songs and very curious to see which ones she decided to overhaul.

Luf you Kate!
Guys this is sooo awesome.

Wonderful news! I always thought The Red Shoes was an underrated Kate album.

Is it just me or does it seem like she just wanted to play with new arrangements and is using this release as an outlet for that because she doesn't get to do live reworkings?

Well, I'm disappointed by this. I didn't appreciate Morrissey's reworkings of Maladjusted and Southpaw Grammar (or the addition of Silver Springs to Rumours). Don't mess with history. But remaster history? By all means.

Well, I can kinda see why she would want to revisit some works from this era, especially The Red Shoes, which is by far my least favorite Kate album. I would love to see a less-schmaltzy version of "Moments of Pleasure," for instance. If nothing else, I'm fascinated by the new vocals; I happen to love Kate's "mature" timbre; her voice, like Christine McVie's, has mellowed into a gorgeous tone with age.

Well... I'd rather hear all that with new material. The cognitive dissonance is too much for me. Like bad American remakes of British tv shows.

Well of course we would all rather hear all-new material. But perhaps she felt that she could not move forward without making some amends with her past. Remember, Kate is a notorious nano-perfectionist. Accordingly she probably still loses sleep over The Red Shoes, which was a very flawed album. Judging from her last studio album, I think Kate is in a much earthier frame of mind- less production, more emotion. I would love to hear her strip a layer or four off of TRS.

Wackier than ever! Here's Kate as "mad genius," slicing up some film. This is the first photo of her for this project, and it mirrors an old photo of Sergei Eisenstein.

A sample of the track "Deeper Understanding" has leaked, but just as quickly, disappeared. The full track will be available for download on April 5th. From what I've heard, it sounds even wackier than this picture looks!
