About this product
This is the original United States double compact disc of Aerial, the eighth album by English singer-songwriter Kate Bush, released by Columbia Records on 8 November 2005 as catalogue number 82796 97772 2.[1] It was her first album in twelve years and her first double album, issued on EMI outside the US, and it peaked at number three in the UK.[2] The two discs hold the suites A Sea of Honey and A Sky of Honey, sixteen tracks lasting about 80 minutes.[3] The sleeve credits the recording to Kate Bush trading as Noble and Brite and names Columbia, a division of Sony BMG Music Entertainment, as exclusive US licensee, manufacturer and distributor; the discs were glass mastered by Sony DADC.[1]
