In the 30th anniversary issue of Rolling Stone, which has a "Women In Rock" theme, a section is dedicated to some of rock & roll's most influential recordings. Guess who's listed? Kate Bush: The Kick Inside Armed with a four-octave range and a prodigious talent on the piano, British singer/songwriter Kate Bush began recording at 16. Four years later, her well-crafted first album, The Kick Inside, became the prototype for art rock, girly-girl style. Tender abllads like " The Man With The Child In His Eyes " displayed Bush's lovely soprano, which careened into the stratosphere on " Wuthering Heights " (her take on Emily Bronte). Bush's musings and dramatic flair would impact future piano goddesses such as Tori Amos, among others. It's just a nod, but any Kate news is good news lately, right? Things sure have been quiet lately . . . ~Jack~
