...sounds less like rap and more like Prohibition-era honky-tonk, and Kate Bush's tremulous Wuthering Heights, sung stoically by orchestra leader George Hinchcliffe, is a strange brew indeed. Even better are the medleys, which might fuse up to seven songs, including a Handel air, Frank Sinatra's Fly Me to the Moon and Hotel California by the Eagles...
