I had the good fortune of meeting "Cat" at his parents restaurant many years ago, he was working on "Back to Earth" at the time. I had no idea that was going to be his last commercial release as Cat Stevens. He certainly had a profound impact on my life and my decision to play guitar and write songs. And his songs still sound relevant to this day.Chase Stevenshttp://facebook.com/chase.stevensnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2960772098173697898.post-86804192823151162712014-06-22T08:42:24.447-07:002014-06-22T08:42:24.447-07:00Thanks Charles.

I would guess the year was 1984 because I bought it at about the same time I bought the "Footsteps in the Dark" LP which came out that year. I remember reading your book cover to cover (well almost) on the bus ride coming back to my suburb. There was so little information about him at that time, so the book was a welcome breathe of fresh air.<br /><br />I'm surprised that Yusuf wouldn't agree to a reprint. That was 10 years ago you say? I think you'd get a different answer today. I believe he mentionned on Facebook not too long ago that he would love to put a biography out.<br /><br />Regards.Charles aka Glaucus, majicat message board moderator.noreply@blogger.com
