Kate Bush – The Kick Inside (2018 Remaster) – Fish People Records 180g Vinyl LP

Kicking things off with a whimper, not a bang, Kate Bush quietly released her 1978 debut, The Kick Inside and that disc still to this day affects an incredible number people. 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. Ten years before ‘Alternative’ hit the forefront, this music was neither easy nor palatable, truly an alternative from the other styles out there. Among the more legendary tracks, search out The Man With The Child in His Eyes and her timeless classic Wuthering Heights.
