About this album

The World Of Cat Stevens is a strong early compilation that gathers Cat Stevens’ late-1960s breakthrough singles and album highlights into one concise portrait. Issued in 1970, it shows the transition from his earlier pop-rock material to the more reflective songwriting that would soon define his career. Songs such as Matthew And Son, The First Cut Is The Deepest and Here Comes My Wife underline his gift for direct melody, memorable hooks and plain-spoken emotional detail. As an overview of his pre-fame years, the set captures the range that helped make Stevens one of the most distinctive voices in British folk-pop.
