Couple good songs, his voice is still pretty good I think.

I saw this today at work, think I might play it tomorrow for some mellow sunday morning music.

woah! Awesome, I didn't even know he had put out a new album :eek: but did remember reading something about him wanting to get back into his roots musically or something like that. Is he still going by Cat Stevens? or is the album going to say Ysuf Islam (sorry about the spelling, but I think that is what he changed his name to). If he ever does a full blown tour again, I'm so hoping I can go to a show! His Magikat dvd from the 1970's is awesome, great concert performance.

That DVD is really good, one of the best.

He's going by just his new first name, Ysuf: http://www.amazon.com/Other-Cup-Yusuf/dp/B000I5X82O/sr=1-1/qid=1163355886/ref=pd_bbs_1/002-0152958-6707212?ie=UTF8&s=music
