I saw the comment that someone left about not liking Kate Bush. I was there, 23 years ago, wondering what all the hubbub was about. Then, in 1987, I purchased "THE WHOLE STORY", which may be a good starting place for someone who is new to Kate's work. It has some of her most popular work, as well as some of her most beautiful ballads. I understand that it isn't a complete "work of art", as the full length albums are, but it is a good place to ween yourself into her work.

For me, after listening to that album repeatedly (some of it harder to digest, than other parts), I was able to unleash myself on to the entire boxed set that was released after "The Sensual World". Great stuff.

Another great bit of trivia, for those that may not know. Apart from her connection to David Gilmour, a couple of her band members on the early albums were also core members of the Alan Parsons Project.
