My original UK Lionheart is in slightly worse condition but sounds way better and that was released in 1978 as well. Vinyl in EXCELLENT condition, MINIMAL superficial surface marks and minor background noise in places. M (Mint): The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The album peaked at number three in the UK album charts and has been certified Platinum by the British Phonographic Industry.

Explore the enchanting world of Kate Bush's musical mastery with her ethereal albums on vinyl and CDs. Although I really want to like this record, my HiFi systems seem to capitulate every time and soon after me.

EX (Excellent): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening of sound quality. Also, Dearborn-Music (the seller) got it to me quite fast and I am very pleased with how fast this collection got to me because I was waiting to get this collection the moment I saw a month before it was released that it was coming out. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

Kate's debut album "The Kick Inside" was released on 17 February 1978 and contains the UK number one hit, "Wuthering Heights". My copy does have the “REMBER YOURSELF” matrix which I’m assuming was particularly early in the run, so maybe slightly later copies sound better?

There are so many elements that make this disc unique - Kate's soaring soprano, her warm piano playing - but the one thing that perhaps sticks out most is how different her sounds were from anything else circulating at that time. The legendary and unimitable Kate Bush is proud to announce the breakout release of some of her most Iconic early work as part of her massively anticipated 2018 reissue campaign. Kate’s vocals sound almost buried in the instrumental on several tracks and sound a bit shrill in places.
