Description
Producer Paul Samwell-Smith at the desk and Alun Davies newly on guitar: Mona Bone Jakon is where Cat Stevens rethinks everything in lean, wood-and-wire focus. You hear it straight away in Lady D’Arbanville, a cool, insistent pulse under a voice that sounds both older and freer. Pop Star smirks without ever turning glib, and Trouble strips the room to air and truth.
This 50th Anniversary Edition LP opens the stage up; there’s more space around the acoustics, and the low end sits deeper so bass and cello feel properly anchored. If you’d rather order online, you can buy Cat Stevens records online with us. Small gestures carry weight.
Spin it next to Nick Drake for the same candlelit intimacy, though Stevens tilts more wry and worldly. Play it for a quiet dinner, or on a late drive when the city calms and lyrics do the talking. For long-timers, it’s a reminder of the pivot from pop trappings to the run that led to Tea for the Tillerman; for newer ears, it’s a surprisingly raw doorway into that era.
Packaged with care and ready to be lived with, this edition does justice to a quietly bold record. Available online now or in our Melbourne shop, an easy pick for any Cat Stevens fan.
