External Reviews
"I can't believe this album is nearly 50 years old, it still sounds so fresh and original. It's like Sweet Baby James, it will never sound dated and of course good music always lives on. It's a great set of songs and I'd forgotten just what a soulful voice Cat Stevens had. It's difficult to pick favourites but I'd go for Hard Headed Woman, Wild World, Into White and Father and Son which must be one of the best songs ever written, not forgetting the superb melody and poignant words of Sad Lisa. It's sad that this brilliant album will be largely unknown to today's young people. To sum up, it's a superb set of songs with words that are just as relevant today. Yes, baby baby it's a wild world and probably even more so today than in 1970 when this came out." - Amazon Review.
