A recording session took place at Kate's house with Gilmour in 1973. Gilmour noticed her talent, but also the bad tape recorder quality. Then Ricky Hopper presented the songs to David Gilmour.

Twenty to thirty of these songs were presented to record companies by John Carder Bush's friend Ricky Hopper, at first without success. In 1972/73 Kate recorded several tapes of songs. Should be no problems this time, though.Ī little history is in order regarding this release for those who may not know the story.

I'll try to post it on the CD covers threads. Sorry if the artwork gave anyone trouble. You were all great about sharing and your kind comments were much appreciated. Back again with the second and last of my Kate postings.

25-29 are studio outtakes with the KT Bush Band 1975. In interviews she was already dropping names like Kafka and Joyce, while she peppered her act with dance moves taught by Linsdsay Kemp. Them Heavy People, the album's second hit may be a bouncy, reggae-lite confection, but it still manages to mention new age philosopher and teacher G I Gurdjieff. In fact, the whole album reads like a the product of a young, liberally-educated mind, trying to cram as much esoterica in as possible. Of course not only did Wuthering Heights give her the first self-written number one by a female artist in the UK, (a stereotype-busting fact of huge proportions, sadly undermined by EMI's subsequent decision to market Bush as lycra-clad cheesecake), but it represented a level of articulacy, or at least literacy, that was unknown to the charts up until then.

At 19 she knew that the startling whoops and Bronte-influenced narrative of Wuthering Heights would be her make or break moment. Even so, EMI wanted the dullest, most conventional track, James And The Cold Gun as the lead single, but Kate was no push over. All delivered in a voice that had no precedents. Some of these songs were written when she was 13! Helmed by Gilmour's friend, Andrew Powell, it's a lush blend of piano grandiosity, vaguely uncomfortable reggae and intricate, intelligent, wonderful songs. Using mainly session musicians, The Kick Inside was the result of a record company actually allowing a young talent to blossom.
