Kate's second album is almost as impressive as the debut. After all, she had penned all or most of the songs from the two first albums before she was even 16.

I've read she isn't entirely pleased with this album though. Listening to it, this can hardly be because of the quality of the material. In fact, it might have more to do with her frustration at being pushed to release a second album so soon after the first. Kate Bush is a perfectionist and I think she wanted to take a few steps beyond the treaded paths of the debut, which obviously wasn't possible in the rushed recordings of this second release in one year.

None of the songs here would be out of the place on the debut. Both in quality and in execution this album reaches similar heights of magical beauty and passion, only the element of surprise is missing really. 3.5 stars
