Kate starts a four-day promotional trip to Eire, appearing on the top show in
the Irish ratings, The Late Late Show. [The Kick Inside is released in the U.S.A., unchanged except for an
inappropriate U.S.- and Canada-only front-cover design, not authorized by Kate.
This is sometimes known as the "mirror" cover. To this day the cover continues
to be used by Harvest, EMI's distributor for Kate's recordings in Canada, but it
was discontinued in the U.S. in July 1978 when Kate's contract was transferred
to the newly launched EMI-America label.]
The album's reception in the U.S. is somewhat quieter than in Europe and England. [To put it mildly!] Capitol-EMI wait for FM radio-play to determine a likely single.
