How did Cat Stevens approach the writing process for this song? kbps17 829 kbps00:24:45.116 15 889 kbps00:26:13.505 15 283 kbps00:24:35.507 62 279 bytes 618 854 bytes00:26:18.510 Inspired by a near-fatal battle with TB and extended period of convalescence during which he studied classical music, metaphysical literature and meditative self-reflection, Mona Bone Jakon is equal parts painful torment, self-referential humour and spiritual awakening. It is deeply revealing of the man he was becoming and the journey he was embarking on that would last a lifetime. Through its stunning and often overlooked crop of songs we encounter an artist who has discovered himself but is unsure of whether the world will accept what he has become. The album has a deeply personal, almost vulnerable quality that, arguably, makes it the most compelling and human of all of Yusuf / Cat Stevens’ work.

Cat Stevens – Maybe You’re Right (Live At Plumpton Jazz & Blues Festival, 08-08-70) – 3:20 (415 kbps , 9.92 MB) Yusuf/ Cat Stevens will celebrate the 50th anniversary of his two 1970 albums, Mona Bone Jakon and the classic Tea for the Tillerman, with huge reissues dedicated to both LPs.kbps17 829 kbps00:28:08.386 15 887 kbps00:28:19.898 15 283 kbps00:27:58.777 61 842 bytes 617 506 bytes00:28:24.903 kbps51 361 kbps00:18:19.598 35 896 kbps00:20:00.999 32 959 kbps00:20:01.099 123 969 bytes408 631 bytes00:18:19.965 Again, we get the original album as heard at the time and in a new remix, plus the recent Yusuf-sings-Cat 2020 updates on the songs recently released as Tea For The Tillerman 2. Then there’s a swathe of live recordings and another disc of demos, this time with two previously unreleased songs, the heartfelt “Can This Be Love?” (which could have been a contender) and the throwaway “It’s So Good” (which has no such pretensions). Cat Stevens‘ Mona Bone Jakon and Tea for the Tillerman albums will both be reissued as extensive super deluxe edition box sets in December. kbps53 481 kbps00:11:35.294 33 794 kbps00:11:35.327 31 382 kbps00:14:57.630 124 233 bytes356 120 bytes00:11:35.795
