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: NEAR MINT
Clean, unmarked labels - a few light spindles
VINYL Visual: EXCELLENT+
Both surfaces shine like-new - some superficial marks are visible - nothing of any audible significance
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
Wonderful LP with an incredibly impressive EMI cut - crystal clear, full, rich, detailed and beautifully warm sound and my play-check at volume found little to fault - a touch of surface noted on the run-ins and in-between a couple of the tracks - nothing really and nothing else to fault - sounds absolutely gorgeous
SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
Apart from some natural shop creasing to the extremities the cover is clean, unmarked and unworn with crisp, sharp edges and spine and a glass-like glossy sheen to the laminated surfaces
