Reviewed: 2017-10-13 Genre: General FCCs: none Review: The Cat is back! This is a collection of new and revamped very early tunes by the man once known as Cat Stevens, who was huge when I was in college in the 70s. His whimsical tone still maintains the fanciful & philosophical lilt of his past and the songs are mostly life lessons. Even the old tunes sound new. Track Review (favorites denoted by *): *1/ Blackness Of The Night (2:59) - synth starts> bleak midtempo song> orchestrl break> midtempo song> quick fade *2/ See What Love Did To Me (3:44) - guitar starts> upbeat & uptempo song about rebirth, with chorus> African guitar solo swells with chorus> uptempo song> fade *3/ The Laughing Apple (3:02) - vocal starts> slow tempo song with chorus swings to midtempo> fade 4/ Olive Hill (2:44) - guitar starts> midtempo song with a spiritual theme> horns solo> midtempo song> quick fadde *5/ Grandsons (3:05) - guitar starts> midtempo song> quick fade 6/ Mighty Peace (2:18) synth/piano starts> slow tempo song> fade on chorus 7/ Mary And The Little Lamb (3:35) - vocal starts> midtempo song> fade *8/ You can Do (Whatever)! (3:10) - guitar starts> midtempo song with a strong positive message increases in volume & stridency> quick fade 9/ Northern Wind (Death Of Billy The Kid) (2:41) -guitar starts> slow tempo song increases in volume> chorus kicks in> quick fade *10/ Don't Blame Them (3:39) - guitar starts> midtempo song swings uptempo> quick fade *11/ xylophone starts> slow tempo song> quick fade | ||
