Saturday Flashback: Kate Bush

Kate Bush has always been an acquired taste.  She was never that well known here in the states save for her Hounds of Love LP that featured "Running Up That Hill"which came out six years later.  I hold her personally responsible for Tori Amos and Sarah McLachlan, even Lady Gaga (a little) and Florence of the Machine.  Kate didn't release anything in 1979, but in April of that year she hit the road for her first-- and last-- tour.  For a variety of reasons, she's never toured again.  This tour was also notable in that it featured the first ever use of the now ubiquitous wireless headset mic.  Here she is later in the year with a couple from her Xmas special.  Enjoy!

  1. "hold her personally responsible"...ha, good one. Paul and Keith Janosik LOVED Kate Bush. Me? I'd usually leave at that point in the evening.
