Yusuf Islam, formerly Cat Stevens, didn’t hold back his excitement recently when he discovered that Coldplay allegedly plagiarized his song (not Joe Satriani’s), saying, “if you listen to [Viva La Vida] it’s mine! It’s the Foreigner Suite, it is!”...

In a moment of deja vu, Yusuf Islam (Cat Stevens) is having trouble getting into the United States. He was supposed to play small shows in New York and Los Angeles to support the release of his new album, Roadsinger, but will not be able to gain access to the country in time due to "paperwork" issues.This isn't the first time Islam has had problems getting into the United States. He went thro...

Harold and Maude created an entire generation of slightly disturbed kids and goths despite never releasing a soundtrack to the film. Well, it's been 36 years but it's never too late for such a classic collection. And, if it reeks of classic hits, it must be coming out of the Attic. Light In The Attic has been releasing and reissuing some of our time's most classic, overlooked gems and they s...

Sure I grew up on Tea for the Tillerman, sure my chilhood was very Harold and Maude-esque, and sure I have always loved Cat Stevens. He was popular right about the time that many moms and pops record collections were being absorbed and raided to form the building blocks of hip hop. And yet the general consensus is that this Cat is not Funky. Just like 60-70's contemporary Neil Young, Yusef (nee...

Along with "Teaser and the Firecat" this album represents the first half of the greatest one/two punch a singer songwriter has ever released. Recorded in around 1970 ...the spare instrumentation and wonderfully timeless songs still hold up today!The remastering was excellent on the previous edition so that isn't the big deal here...its the bonus CD. While not as exciting as the Bonus disc for T...

This ad ran in the Dallas Morning News the day President Kennedy was shot.It's time to cool this vicious rhetoric before we get another man killed. Things like "traitor!", "kill him!", "terrorist!" have been recently shouted from people in the crowds at McCain rallies. Today you saw John McCain attempt to put out the fires members of his campaign have helped start in recent days.... Let's hope ...
