I recall hearing a very unusual synth sound back in about 1972, on a Cat Stevens record that I bought. I remember the girl I was with mostly, lol. But anyway, I was searching for that song and came across this video. What an amazing musician. Heck, I didn't even know he played piano, I only had seen him playing guitar.

Rumors say he did not use Chick Corea's piano tracks after Chick was hired for session work for one of his albums.

He is Yusuf Islam now and not making music anymore.

First cut, father and son and Wild world are great.

No, if you read your link you'll relize he's still making music & I bet even good music. I was a big Cat Stevens fan in those days when we all were still young & attractive... :-) :-) :-)


Keep well my friend,
