Kate Bush's first album, The Kick Inside, released when the singer/songwriter was only 19 years old (but featuring some songs written at 15 and recorded at 16), is her most unabashedly romantic, the sound of an impressionable and highly precocious teenager spreading her wings for the first time.
The centrepiece is "Wuthering Heights," which was a hit everywhere except the United States (and propelled the Emily Brontë novel back onto the best-seller lists in England), but there is a lot else here to enjoy: The disturbing "Man with the Child in His Eyes," the catchy rocker "James and the Cold Gun," and "Feel It," an early manifestation of Bush's explorations of sexual experience in song, which would culminate with "Hounds of Love."
Side 1: Moving / The Saxophone Song / Strange Phenomena / Kite / The Man With The Child In His Eyes / Wuthering Heights
Side 2: James And The Cold Gun / Feel It / Oh To Be In Love / L’Amour Looks Something Like You / Them Heavy People / Room For The Life / The Kick Inside
LABELS: MINT-
Clean, bright and fresh labels - just one light spindle trace on one side
VINYL Visual: MINT
Both surfaces shine like-new - not a mark to be seen, even under bright light
VINYL Audio: MINT-
Wonderful LP with an impressive EMI cut - crystal clear, full, rich, detailed and beautifully warm sound and my play-check at loud volume found nothing to fault and in my experience these originals are surprisingly hard to find playing this well - absolutely gorgeous
SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
But as-new with just small manufacturing marks to the laminate on the back and light shop creases to the spine. The deeply laminated and deeply glossy sleeve has a glass-like finish to both the front and back and is clean, sharp and fresh with all spine text clear and bold
