So is Life in Rain.

On the cusp between beatboom and Britgum: the sound of a Britain in love with the white heat of technology and convinced, on the whole, that life got a little better every day. Too early for "The Cottage Industry of Moments", but another record that could never, psychologically, be made now. What's most improbable is that it was written by Cat Stevens.

I like Cat's version much better. I love Matthew & Son-era Cat Stevens. It's just gorgeous late 60s British pop, all of it.

Oh, what the hell, I love Tea for the Tillerman, too.

I like Cat's version much better . This is something I hope to never hear in writing again.

What's yr take on Yusuf Islam?Doesn't anybody else in this queen bitch like early Cat Stevens? I can't be the only one.

"Lady D'Arbanville", which was his first single in "singer- songwriter" mode, pretty much encapsulates its era, right down to the attitude to women as distant, almost neo-Victorian beautiful objects to worship rather than take seriously. That last bit is, obviously, not a recommendation of the era, though without it the song would completely fall down.

The promotional film for "Father And Son" is charming, as well: it's not as if I can't understand why people like him.

I love Cat Stevens. I'm not that familiar with the early period though (apart from 'Matthew & Son' of course).
