Cat Stevens "Tea For The Tillerman" (50th Anniversary)
FORMAT | LP
50th Anniversary reissue. Following his spiritual and artistic rebirth, and hot on the heels of his incredibly well received release, Mona Bone Jakon, Cat Stevens unveiled his second album of the year in November 1970 … and it was to become one of the defining musical statements of the new decade. Tea For The Tillerman, not only consolidated Cat’s success in the UK and forged him a glittering new career in the USA, it also set him on the road to global superstardom and gave the world songs like Wild World, Father and Son, Where Do The Children Play? and many more.
the songs’ messages as powerfully relevant today as they were in 1970, the original album is represented here on CD by a brand new 2020 remaster at Abbey Road Studios by Geoff Pesche, overseen by original producer Paul Samwell-Smith, as well as a new 2020 Mix on CD by David Hefti. It also includes, in full, Yusuf’s September 2020 reimagined Tea For The Tillerman 2 album featuring new interpretations of the classic originals. The box also includes an exclusive fourth CD of outtakes, alternate versions and demos, and a fifth featuring 25 live performances from 1971 including some recorded at the legendary LA music venue The Troubadour.
