How can you be anti-Cat Stevens? I mean... it's all peace, love and happiness.

5. well, really an anti- Yusef Islam crowd...
but apparently it is retroactive, given the discussions in the past on the issue..

4. Had Cat phoned me up way back when, I would have told him
to steer clear of Islamic fundamentalism, but as it happened, he didn't place the call, and there he is.

Nevertheless, anyone who tries to take my copies of TEA FOR THE TILLERMAN and TEASER AND THE FIRECAT gets his nuts shot off.

My ear appreciates a great songwriter when it hears one.

7. Hi, hlthe2b. Wearing out copies of those albums? That's indication
of a sound mind.

Good for you.

God, some of those songs are just terrific.

"How Can I Tell You" is a show-stopper for me.

14. That's a beautiful song.
I went out and got the CD's after I wore out the albums! :) "Catch Bull at Four" has some great songs on it, also. "Boy with a Moon and Star on His Head" and "Sweet Scarlet" always get to me.

13. Flashbacks!
Ah goodness, memories of high school and college. LOVE Cat.

:hi: I have not seen you around much. I don't know if it is because you have been gone a lot or if it is because I have not been around much. Whatever, it is sure good to see you again!

19. MuseRider! Hello! Thank you, and good to see you, too. It's
high season for politics, so I'm in and out.

I want a huge Democratic tide on Nov. 7th!

20. Yup, me too.
Been working the phones and walking and walking. Working on equality issues and supporting those who would support that (although I stay away from the Repubicans).

21. Good for you! And good also for the people your work is going to
help -- both in the near future and on down the road.

Just excellent. Thank you for that.

Seventeen more days til the Republicans are out on their hindends!

2. Oh he is so great

Here is another version.

Cat Stevens and Peter Gabriel hit me in the soul area, real deep.

8. Thanks... lovely trip on memory lane. Maybe, just maybe...
...the hunger for peace is starting to reawaken, and messages like this and John Lennon and others will start to resonate again. Maybe we'll even see some new musical prophets.

hopefully,
Bright

16. "Bitter Blue" link - another awesome Cat song that never got a lot
of notice. He was really young in this video.
