about this site

Firstly my name - John Black, a 40 year old Scot who first witnessed Kate Bush singing Wuthering heights away back in 1978 and I remember thinking "I Like That!" those were the easy days of the simple hate, like or love, rating scale, I have improved on that these days, it's now OLD GOLD and MODERN NOISE!, I must be getting old.

My next connection with Kate came in January 1979 I bought Lionheart and was totally disappointed that Wuthering Heights wasn't on it, only to be informed by a mate who was more musically up to speed that this was her second album, so naturally I rushed out and bought The kick inside, and I've been rushing out to buy her stuff ever since.

I joined The Kate Bush Fan Club in 1980 and eventually through pen pal adverts, I met my current fiancée, Joanna another big fan, and I suppose we just had to be.

The Kick Inside MSN GroupIn May 2002, in an effort to get a regular Sunday chat with my German pen pal and fellow Kate Bush fan, I started The Kick Inside MSN Group and it has just blossomed into a fun, friendly place to hang out and chat. At first the chat was only once a week but this has since evolved into a thrice weekly chat -

Friday 8.45pm
Saturday 8.00pm
Sunday 7.00pm

All UK times

Now today there is this new step forward with the launch of The Kick Inside Tribute Site. I have to give ALL the credit to Robert as I simply don't have his patience to put this kind of quality into a site, as you can tell a lot of time and effort, not to mention tears and anguish went into this site

....Enjoy, John
