Looks like Yusuf, sounds like Cat

People blame the Muslim faith for a lot of things.  I blame Islam for just one thing: It fucked me out of 28 years worth of Cat Stevens' music.  Well, the Cat is back, and not a moment too soon.  Perhaps he's broke.  Maybe he's a backslider.  Whatever the reason, he's got a new album out - his first pop album since his conversion to Islam.

      John, no joke, but I've always felt the same way about Cat Stevens. Sure, I wasn't around when he bailed, but my dad was. And if Cat quitting his game took a piece of my dad's soul, then it sure as hell took a piece of mine. It's good to hear him singing something other than Longer Boats or Bitterblue.
