	Unfortunately, The Dreaming is her 'farthest out' album and
her songs have slowly become more pop oriented since 1982. But...it
has been a gradual mellowing, so the rational would be to go out and
buy Hounds of Love, which followed (after the obligatory three years
of silence) The Dreaming. No, it's not as wild as TD, but it does have
her second biggest hit, Running Up That Hill, and side two (which is
treated as another concept album entirely) is afreakingmazing.
	My fave is the very simple, but extremely well-written The
Kick Inside...what the hell...just go buy 'em all. (Now, really Steve,
didn't you ultimately expect THIS advice? :-)  )
