Hi. My name is Ken and I am a newbie to this group. Well a newbie to the group yes, to Kate - no. I've been listening to Kate since 1978 (or so). Wuthering Heights of course was the first song I heard, but being of obviously discerning taste ;-) I held on and became a strong Believer. I have the seven albums that I know of, not counting any compilations, which I don't generally buy. I prefer to sample the whole concept or maybe era of the album itself. I also have the Videos of Live at Hammersmith and The Whole Story. My eldest daughter is named after Kate, at least her middle name. We spelt it Katharine just to pretend it wasn't actually Kate, but I'll always know. I've only just found this group, but I've seen the poll about top albums, so I'll add my vote. 1. HoL. 2. TD. 3. TRS. (But I have to say that I although I like HoL better as an album, some of my most favourite songs are from TD.) 'There goes a tenner, hey look there's a fiver' I's sure that Kate made a visit here in the early days, I've seen the mention of the "Tour of Life" in 1979. Can anyone tell me if she came to New Zealand, and if so, do they remember what she performed on TV at the time? Can someone point me to more info on "The Line, the Cross and the Curve"? I'll be listening in, so hello all, and I look forward to talking to you all. KKG. P.S. Thanks to Vickie Mapes and Stev0. (Hope that's right, we must all trust in the almighty font and our beloved PC to present correct names.)
