This one is a family, a rotating cast of folk and classical specialists, and a run of guest stars nobody would put in the same room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrawn as lines, it becomes obvious how unusual that is, and how consistent she was about it across three decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eContributing musicians on the map\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHer brother Paddy Bush has the longest line after Kate herself, appearing on nine of the ten albums. The instruments he is credited with are the best argument for reading the map closely: balalaika, sitar, koto, musical saw, bullroarer, didgeridoo, valiha, singing bowls, fujara, mandocello, pan flute, and on one track, a whip, described in the credits as a swished fishing rod.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree more of the family have stations. Her other brother, John Carder Bush, narrates on Hounds of Love, her father, Robert Bush, speaks on The Sensual World, and her son, Albert McIntosh, appears on the last three albums, taking a lead vocal on 50 Words for Snow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDel Palmer and Stuart Elliott are the two long-working lines, Palmer across eight albums and Elliott across the first eight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Red Shoes in 1993 is where the map turns into a party. Prince plays keyboards, guitar, bass and vocals on one track, Jeff Beck and Eric Clapton both play guitar, Nigel Kennedy plays violin and viola, Gary Brooker plays Hammond organ, and Lenny Henry sings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDavid Gilmour has a single station on The Sensual World, and Trio Bulgarka's vocals run across two albums.
