In a statement, the legendary singer-songwriter said: “What a huge honour to have been asked to be [an] ambassador for this year’s Record Store Day.
It really is a great privilege.“Isn’t it great to see how the resurgence in vinyl has taken the music industry by surprise? It had decided to leave vinyl far behind, but it would seem that not everyone agrees!
I love that!”Bush continued: “I know there are many, many artists who are just as excited to see the audience turning the tide.”To celebrate her involvement, she will release a special 10-inch vinyl edition of her song ‘Eat The Music’, which originally appeared on her 1993 album ‘The Red Shoes’.
