4 Sucessos - Brazil 7" Single (4 Track EP)

Released in 1978, this Brazilian 7” single (4 track EP) features 4 songs from The Kick Inside. It’s also one of the rarest of all Kate picture sleeves.

The sleeve is made from a thick card stock, similar to the really early UK singles, and the front artwork is also carried onto the back side of the sleeve. In case anyone is wondering, the photography on this one is by Gered Mankowitz. Personally, I think it’s a stunning photo of Kate.

The record has the same two tone tan and red record labels as the UK releases at that time.

This single/EP is a rare one, and if you’re looking for it, you can probably expect to pay a nice chunk of money for it. So fair warning on that.

The Big Sky - Canada 12" Single

The Canadian sleeve carries the exact same front and back artwork as the UK 12" single. The sleeve is also made out of much thicker card than the UK release.

The inner sleeve is a clear plastic one. I'm not a fan of these as they tend to act like static magnets each time you remove the record from it.

The record labels are also completely different to the UK ones and feature huge EMI America logos on each side.

The Man I Love - Canada CD Single

The Canadian CD single insert features the exact same front and back artwork found on the UK CD single. The only real difference between the two is the distribution information and the catalogue number - everything else is pretty much identical.

The front insert is also a folded one and one-sided only. The opposite side is totally blank, so I didn't see the point of scanning that in.

Kate is only featured on the first track, which is the case for all the releases of this single.
