B.W.'s PLAYLIST/ KHSU-FM, 90.5/ SAT., 11 APRIL 09


Songwriter, musician, and artist Kate Bush was only 17 years old when she released her debut record, The Kick Inside, in 1977. Yeah, I know, this photo (espeically the dress) balances the fine point between looking chic and looking like Stevie Nicks. Fortunately, it falls (mainly) on the former. Then again, who gives a toss? She's still cool, talented and beautiful. Welcome, Ms. Bush, to Boy Wonder's World. So to speak. She was recently spotted at the recent official opening of Missing Link Records in Arcata, CA. Then again, maybe there was something in the free punch...
