This album probably doesnt get the recognition it deserves as one of Cats best albums. A much overlooked classic. After a rather shaky effort with Foreigner, Cat Stevens here returns to his winning formula, bringing his former session musicians back on board, including the great Alun Davies, the man responsible for the beautiful acoustic guitar melodies in his earlier albums. This change back to Cat's previous form is even heralded in the long and pondorous title, reminiscent of the earlier albums teaser and the firecat, tea for the tillerman etc. Cat pledges his commitment to music in the opening and closing tracks. Highlights include Music, Ready, and King of Trees, a heartfelt lament about a tree. Also Sun/C79 is fantastic, definately one of my favourite songs of his. This album could probably be said to be his last truly classic album, sadly Cat Stevens was never this good again.
