Aerial - 2005 UK EMI label 16-track 2LP set

Very rare 2005 UK EMI label 16-track 2LP set - Bush's magnificent 1st album in twelve years since 1993's 'The Red Shoes' - musically incorporating elements of rock and reggae as well as folk, classical and renaisance music.

The album is divided equally between a record simply being a collection of more unrelated songs - entitiled 'A Sea of Honey' and including the single 'King of the Mountain' - and a record in the form of a suite dwelling in the experience of outdoor adventures on a single summer day...

Vinyls are manufactured as an 180 gram pressing - packed in front stickered gatefold picture cover - complete with picture booklet.

Condition: Still Factory Sealed:
Unopened and unused - new.
