Many thanks to the friend, that wants to remain anonymous, for this wonderful gift !
Mint condition, played for the 2nd time here for the Doc and you all.
Kate’s second album is mellower than most of her work. Most of it is Kate’s still-girlish vocals and her piano. The sole exception is the frantic guitar rocker “Don’t Push Your Foot On The Heartbrake”, which is inbetween two lovely songs–”Wow” and “Oh England, My Lionheart.” “Heartbreak” contains a wonderful metaphor of spilling red beads to blood, and “Wow” is one of Kate’s best singles.
We all know how high Kate Bush ranks in terms of iconic stature over here in England. Is there anyone above her in terms of respect? Hardly. Her music has become almost a genre unto itself over the years. After her smash hit debut album “The Kick Inside,” Kate released “Lioneart.” The album was actually released in the same year as her debut, which was obviously just a record company ploy to capitalise on Kate’s new-found success. As a result, this album didn’t do as well as her debut, and sold a mere 300,000 copies in the UK. It peaked at No.6 and didn’t really spawn any massive hit singles. When stood next to Kate’s masterpieces such as “Hounds Of Love” and “The Dreaming,” this album doesn’t really stand a chance. There are great moments on all of Bush’s albums, but this album just so happens to feature the least amount. Or at least that’s my opinion.
The album opens with “Symphony In Blue.” This is a very classy mid-tempo song and has trademark vocals from Kate, very high and operatic. It’s also quite a sexual song and has some rather racy lyrics for 1978! “In Search Of Peter Pan” is actually one of my least favourites on the album. No matter how many times I listen to it never seems to fully connect with me like most of Kate’s music does. The end of the chorus is very beautiful though, and the piano is rather shrill and very harmonious. “Wow” is one of the best songs I think Kate has ever done. This song runs for four minutes and has one of the most fantastic intros I’ve ever heard. It’s incredibly atmospheric and almost eerie. Kate’s vocals are so beautiful and remind me of a starry night. The chorus is amazing as she bursts out singing, “Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow! Unbelievable!” It ends just as beautifully as it started too.
“Don’t Push Your Foot On The Heartbrake” is a fantastic song that has quite a subdued, quiet opening. However, things pick up in the section before the chorus, until Kate is screaming her head off in that chorus! I love it when the guitars kick in as she sings, “Come on! You’ve got to use your flow!” “Oh England My Lionheart” is a very sad song about the war, and is interesting in how this is the only song to feature hand-written lyrics in the inlay, while the rest are simply printed. The chorus is quite impressive as Kate’s voice rises. “Fullhouse” is a rather weak offering, because I feel that the vocals are bit too eccentric on this song. “In The Warm Room” is a very sensual and erotic song. This worked very fell on Kate’s debut album on songs such as “L’Amour Looks Something Like You” and “Feel It.” This isn’t as good, but it’s still a great song. The lyrics become more sensuous as the song progresses, right down to, “You’ll fall into her like a pillow, her thighs are soft as marshmellows, say hello, to the soft musk of her hollows.” Kate’s vocals rise and fall to the sweet tenderness of such a beautiful song.
“Kashka From Baghdad” is one of Kate’s most famous songs, in which she sings about a gay couple, shunned by their friends and family because of their homosexuality. However, they don’t seem to care, as their landlady observes every night as she can hear them laughing and getting along just like any ordinary couple. You can feel the longing for them as a couple in Kate’s voice, which was quite risky back in 1978. “Coffee Homeground” is a song about murder, yet it’s supposed to be set in the 19th Century. To achieve this, the song sounds very spacious and cold, like an eerie cellar haunted by ghosts. It’s a very British song, and is perfect for expressing Kate’s dynamic voice. The album closes with “Hammer Horror,” another song about murder. In this song, Kate takes on the role of an understudy who plots to kill off the main star in a play so that she can have the part. It’s a rather unusual song, very diverse for its time, and ultimately very rewarding.

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, Tori Amos and Sarah McLachlan among them. 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.” –Denise Sheppard
Released while still in her teens, this debut by Kate Bush is deceptively simple. One would not expect tons of musical sophistication in the structures of her songs. And, if the truth be told, the emotional palette of the album is fairly limited as well–that is to say, compared to her later work, there is a romantic dreaminess suffusing Bush’s vocals throughout that is of unparalleled beauty, and even naivete.
Behind the simplicity of the verse-chorus song structures is a ferocious imagination. The vocal line of the opening song, “Moving” is more than enough to sound like some kind of complete reinvention of all singing. It is one of the most beautiful (and moving) things that Bush has ever recorded. And, as throughout all of her career, the musicians she has playing for her are genuine masters of tact, taste and musicianship. The bass player, in particular, deserves to be in the Hall of Fame for his playing.
There is no doubt that this is a first album by a first-rate artist. One song, one of the disc’s stand-outs, “The Man with a Child in his Eyes” was apparently recorded when she was sixteen. Again, compared to her later work, there is a very dominant style of piano-bass-drum music over which Bush’s sensuous vocals sail. The attempt at a more rock orchestration on “James and the Cold Gun”, while musically lush in performance, seems a bit forced and is one of the weaker spots on the album. Basically, if the opening song grabs you by the soul and makes you sit up, then the whole thing is a banquet of similar delights.
Lastly, the album also features the (now) signature Kate Bush song, “Wuthering Heights”. One of those rare kinds of song that deserves every bit of admiration that Bush’s devoted fans lavish on it. Newcomers should be warned not to overread the meaning in the lyrics, here or anywhere else. Bush’s lyrics seem to be very private, on the one hand, or are imaginative projections of the person in her song. In other words, and as Bush has asserted in interviews, the artist should not be mistaken for her subject.
Over the course of her career, one can actually hear the young woman who is singing on this album growing up–songs about broken hearts, rather than romantic idylls about Prince Charmings. The freshness, even the innocence, captured on this disk is truly remarkable. The singing, often in the very high range, is almost painfully moving–a truly amazing musical experience if you can be open to it without irony.
