Mr. Bossert, you now owe me a new keyboard. ;) I, too, find it highly unlikely that Kate Bush would've been browsing a downtown record store in NYC this week, particularly at a time when the music industry is swarming Manhattan and she'd run a much higher chance than usual of being recognized on the street.

I already loved happy based on the 4 cassettes available 'til that point (volume 1, volume 2, ecto, and rearmament), but after warpaint, she moved into that 'truly most inspiring and influential artist' category. the one we call 'goddess' around here, I guess. :) this is not to say i didn't already feel that way, really.. it's just that.. well.. warpaint kicked it up a BIG notch. wow. I still have the most odd vivid memory of listening to warpaint in one of the computer labs at rutgers (in the old caip 'building' - a temporary-type structure), and just being so awed that I could hardly work. - --jessica Jon Wesley Huff wrote: > Thanks for the heads-up guys. > I actually have Warpaint too!
