Free Music Review: Consider the New Deluxe Edition With Extra Tracks
Hit: 5 Stars

This obviously great album is even greater with the remastered Deluxe Edition that came out in 2008. The extra tracks are worthwhile, consisting of live performances, demos and outtakes on a second dic. The sound also received a new 24 bit remaster and is more open and clear than this single disc 2000 remaster. Note: The same comments apply to Teaser and the Firecat, Steven's other great masterpiece from this era.

Tea for the Tillerman Poster

Cat Stevens tends to be lumped in with the early-'70s singer-songwriter school led by James Taylor and Carole King, but he actually fits in rather neatly with such wistful English contemporaries as Nick Drake, Syd Barrett, and Donovan. Tea for the Tillerman's "Wild World," "Into White," and "Longer Boats" indicate that he may have been a more gifted tunesmith than the lot of them. As with the best of the Brit folk-rockers, Stevens mixed melancholy with whimsy. Yes, he was prone to airy platitudes, but when he harnessed his eccentricities, as he did throughout this 1970 masterwork, you had something truly distinctive. A natural cult artist, ? la Tim Buckley and Leonard Cohen, Stevens connected with record-buyers to the tune of 25 million units sold before he changed his name to Yusuf Islam, established an Islamic school, and raised a ruckus by supporting Ayatollah Khomeini's death decree against author Salman Rushdie. This remastered 2000 version of the 1970 recording, which was overseen by the artist, is a vast improvement over the earlier CD reissue. --Steve Stolder
