1) Amazon.com essential recording
Kicking off A&M's ambitious Cat Stevens reissue program is this 20-song introduction. The set surveys all of Stevens's stages, from the orchestrated late-1960s sides through his early-'70s peak to his more eclectic late-1970s experiments. Following the progression makes for an interesting endeavor as Stevens learns to harness his ambitious ideas with arrangements that don't obscure his rhapsodic messages. Few artists of his generation were more gifted when it came to plucking timeless melodies out of thin air, and his sumptuous voice was always able to movingly convey his bittersweet lyrics. As a career overview (including one previously unreleased cut) this set achieves its goal, hitting all of the chart successes along the way and basically defining his role as a sensitive '70s singer-songwriter, but some fans may opt for the classic early-'70s studio records, which find Stevens at his most consistently touching. --Marc Greilsamer

I am thoroughly enjoying Cat Steven again. He is great the second time around and will be again and again.3) Excellent music - poor quality CD - skipped 1st time used [Rating: 1 out of 5]
I was very disappointed with the quality of the CD. It was skipping from the very first time I used it. I know it wasn't my CD player since the other CD I purchased was fine. Cat Stevens is one of my favorite musicians so I was very excited to get a collection of his best hits. What a shame to receive and pay for an inferior product.4) Even better than expected [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Fast arrival, great item. I love Amazon.com and will continue to use it, I was doubtful at first that this could be such an easy way to purchase things and get what I wanted fast and easy but it shows that YES SOMETIMES THINGS ARE JUST WHAT THEY SEEM!5) WOW - Great sound like I remember [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I have always liked Cat Stevens. I really enjoyed his powerful voice and wonderful melodies again.
