An unreleased Kate Bush track recorded during studio sessions for her debut album "The Kick Inside" at AIR Studios London between July and Aug 1977.
This track was left of the final album and was never used as a "B" side. It was recorded, produced and mixed by Andrew Powell.
The loss in sound quality is due to this digital copy being made from a later generation analogue cassette transfer that had been "passed down" & copied multiple times by fans on home twin cassette decks between the 70's and the 90's.
Until it finally became possible to digitally preserve (on home computer) the quality of a (by that time) random multiple generation cassette, so preventing any further loss in sound quality that was always inevitable with analogue cassette copying (up until the technological shift away from "home taping" (in analogue) to "CD burning" (in digital).
It is not a demo, it is genuinely the only unreleased finished studio recording to leak out in her entire career (thanks in no small part to her later purchase of a home studio).
