Kim Wilde – Another Step

Limited hot pink colored vinyl LP pressing. Demon Records are delighted to announce the next reissue from Kim Wilde's classic MCA years on LP again for the first time in more than 35 years. Now released on 'hot' pink vinyl and as an eye-catching picture disc, Another Step was Kim's fifth studio album, first released in November 1986. Now come with the bonus track 'Victim', originally only included on cassette and CD versions of the album. The presence of British Soul singer Junior points to the broader influences on Another Step, which sees Kim move away from the synth-pop sound that marked her earlier releases, introducing elements of R&B and Rock. This new direction includes the use of a brass section on the up-tempo 'Hit Him', and a trio of female backing singers on the ballad 'How Do You Want My Love'. While Ricky Wilde still handled most of the production duties, new recruits to the technical team included Rod Temperton (writer of hits for Heatwave, Michael Jackson, and George Benson, among others), Richard James Burgess (previously with Landscape, then producer for Spandau Ballet, New Edition, and Five Star), plus additional keyboards from Dire Straits' Guy Fletcher.
