Fun story about Kate Bush. She got a major label record deal when she was still 16 because Dave Gilmour (from Pink Floyd) was some kind of distant family friend or something and heard a tape of her singing and playing the piano. He went to her house to meet her and found she had a huge number of songs already recorded like that. He arranged for her to have a proper demo recorded and took it to EMI.
