The Kick Inside-Kate Bush (entire album)

perhaps, dare I say, one of the greatest albums ever made? Seriously, Kate Bush, we are not worthy. You only see artists like Kate Bush or Bjork a few times in a lifetime, it is too bad she doesn't feel compelled to release more work.

They're awesome! Their lead singer is an absolutely fantastic lyricist. He lives about 10 minutes away from me too.

Whaattt? Lol, that must be awesome
Yeah, the guy sounds great, voice and lyrics. I picked up their Best Of called A Life of Surprises and every track sounded awesome. One of them I actually heard a lot before (it plays on the radio), "Cars and Girls", but didn't know the name of the band. That song is great
I picked the second album now, Steve McQueen, and will listen to it later (I'm on a Will & Grace addiction atm). They don't have much Prefab Sprout stuff at Warez-BB, but I'll check for torrents. I'm hoping to find at least the A Life of Surprises CD at some store here, since I guess they must have been popular in Portugal at some point in time (80s or something).

Btw, I'm checking other scottish/uk pop bands from the 80s, like Deacon Blue, Aztec Camera and China Crisis. I suppose you know them as well. From those 3 I only heard a Deacon Blue best of so far, and it didn't please me as much as Prefab Sprout. But I gotta give it some more tries.

Not really lol. I just saw the Prefab Sprout video for the King of Rock and Roll (their big UK single) which is the greatest thing ever and immediately downloaded their greatest hits. I'm glad you liked it straight away, because it took a while for it to click with me. Steve McQueen is a great album! I haven't really looked into the genre much at all.

Have you heard much of The Smiths? Not really the same genre, but Morrissey has just as distinct lyrics and voice and they created fantastic 80's indie-pop song.

White Stripes - Elephant

I saw the record at a store today and struggled for 30 mins on whether or not I should purchase it...it was expensive and I'm not swimming in dough...but I charged it anyways.

I'm gonna convert the vinyl to WAV and then to FLAC. Ball and Biscuit is gonna be heaven.
