Free Music Notes for Footsteps in the Light
Free Music Review: Varied, but the Highs are Very High
Hit: 4 Stars
It's natural for a compilation like this one to be a bit all over the map. So here there are highs and lows. But the highs make this well worth having.
Yusuf's reworking of old material in several songs is interesting, but please know that this is Yusuf Islam covering Cat Stevens, not Cat Stevens himself. We all change and grow; please listen for the changed man.
That said, my favorite cuts here are all new. Yusuf's modernizations of traditional material are always fresh and his recording of the Adhan, the call to prayer is simply haunting. But the song that stays with me most is "God is the Light," which, to my ears, combines the tuneful beauty of old material with the humble spirituality of the new.
Note: the booklet accompanying the CD is one of the nicest and most informative I've ever seen. It adds a whole new dimension to the music.
