That was a series of three that came out in the late 1980s.  As you say,
the inside artwork has nothing to do with the covers, which are taken
directly from some of Kate's albums.  I have an artist friend who is also
a big Kate Bush fan (but who does not have net access), and she wrote to
the artist to ask about this.  He said, basically, that he too was a big
KB fan, and thought the pictures looked nice.
