"Billboard", November 18, 1989:

 U.S. Albums chart: up 3 places, from 49 to 46;
 U.S. Hot Rock Trax chart: up 3 places, from 5 to 2;
 U.S. Compact Disks chart: down 2, from 16 to 18;
 U.K. Albums chart (Gallup/Music Week--i.e. sales only): down 4, from 2 to 6);
 Canadian Albums chart: entered at 19;
 West German Albums chart: entered at 20;
 Pan-European Albums chart: entered at 6.

"Cashbox", November 18, 1989:
 Alternative Albums chart: number 2;
 U.S. albums chart: up 14, from 49 to 35.

"NME", "MM", and "Sounds" (the MRIB chart--i.e. sales and radio play):
   down 9, from 3 to 12.

   Considering that Columbia Records, in a demonstration of business
sense almost criminal for its ineptitude, has _still_ made no effort
to promote Kate Bush's new album in the United States in _any_way_
(no instore display material, no single, no 12", no cassette-single,
no _NOTHING_), the fact that the record continues to climb in the
U.S. album charts, if only a few short places, is quite a testimony
to the power of the music itself.
