Kate Bush. Catherine "Kate" Bush, CBE (born 30 July 1958)[1] is an English singer-songwriter, musician and record producer.

Kate Bush

Her eclectic musical style and idiosyncratic vocal style have made her one of the United Kingdom's most successful solo female performers of the past 35 years. In 1987, she won a Brit Award for Best British Female Solo Artist, and in 2002, her song writing ability was recognised with an Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Contribution to British Music. During the course of her career, she has also been nominated for three Grammy Awards.

After her 1979 tour – the only concert tour of her career before 2014 – Bush released the 1980 album Never for Ever, which made her the first British solo female artist to top the UK album charts and the first female artist ever to enter the album chart at Number 1.[3] She is also the first (and to date only) female artist to have Top 5 albums in the UK charts in five successive decades.

Close All of Nilsen's murders were committed in two North London addresses in which he alternately resided throughout the years he is known to have killed. Nilsen became known as the Muswell Hill Murderer as his later murders were committed in the Muswell Hill district of North London; he also became known as the Kindly Killer, in reference to his belief that his method of murder was the most humane.

Early life[edit] Childhood[edit] The marriage between Nilsen's parents was beset with difficulties. Nilsen was a quiet yet adventurous child. By 1951 Nilsen's grandfather's health was in decline, although he continued to work as a fisherman. Shortly after this near-fatal incident, Nilsen's mother moved out of her mother's home and into a flat with her three children. Answers. WIKILEAKS PHENOMENA. Wikimedia. Sawney Bean. The story appears in The Newgate Calendar, a crime catalogue of the notorious Newgate Prison in London.

Sawney Bean

While historians tend to believe that Sawney Bean never existed or that his story has been greatly exaggerated, his story has passed into local folklore and is part of the Edinburgh tourism industry. Legend[edit] According to The Newgate Calendar, Alexander Bean was born in East Lothian during the 1500s.[1] His father was a ditch digger and hedge trimmer, and Bean tried to take up the family trade but quickly realised that he had little taste for honest labour.

He left home with a vicious woman who apparently shared his inclinations. The couple ended up at a coastal cave in Bennane Head between Girvan and Ballantrae where they lived undiscovered for some twenty-five years. The couple eventually produced eight sons, six daughters, eighteen grandsons and fourteen granddaughters. Sources and veracity[edit] Sawney Bean is often considered a mythical figure.
