Okay - I too fall into the 20-something age bracket. And I'd like to
proclaim that I'm 24!! (I've only got 2 months until the big 2 - 5 !!) I
really discovered Kate when 17, although I'd loved that lovely wee ditty
she sung with Mr Gabriel for years before that. Mine was a classic
addiction - a friend gave me the Whole Story, and following the most
helpful informaiton included inside, I purchased all her albums, in
sequence over a 3 month time-period. I remember having to order them all
because the stores didn't stock them - and I only had a tape
player...........now, things have changed. I run a music store and my
collection is complete (well, considering what is actually available to me
!) I try to stock all the albums in store, but EMI has made only 2
available here. However, there are ways.................
	I wonder what the age spread is like for Kates fans - I'd like to think
that she's reached people in many age brackets!!! (that may be a little
idealistic!!!!)

	Cheers, Katya
